Taking a whack from the Wedge…
Everyone loves the Wedge. Surfers, bodyboarders, bodysurfers, skimboarders, kneeboarders, even dudes on inflatable swans. So when the wave turned on last weekend an eclectic bunch of surf craft and their riders descended en masse to Newport Beach. It wasn’t quite all-time Wedge, but there was still bucketloads of the usual carnage and hilarity. Here’s a collection of the best edits to come out of the first decent 2017 spring swell at the Wedge, April 21st to 23rd, enjoy!
