Good-Epic: Fabio Plus Emilia Equals Day of the Year in Newport Beach “On Friday morning at dark, it had a little weird warble and super dredgey low tide,” said longtime Newport local Spencer Pirdy. “But by sun-up, it was clean and like photos I looked at as a little kid and dreamed about. Definitely a memorable morning. Pros were coming out, going, 'whoa, this is Southern California doing its impersonation of Puerto Escondido/Pipeline.' It was a very memorable swell. That's my perspective, at least, and people might have a different opinion -- but one thing I think we can all take away from it is that if we were out there, we scored because we all got to enjoy a pretty magical day in Southern California.” ----------------------------------- Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/user/surfline Become a Surfline Premium Member: https://surfl.in/2Cd36tF
