Tale Of Two Beach Cams

 

 

Back in the day, we sometimes would shoot Malibu from two different camera angles. Invariably, the further up the beach we were, looking towards the pier from 2nd, the better/faster/crisper the wave looked. The same ride shot from the pier looking into the wave would look slow and bouncy.

These clips of the same wave featuring Roger Proneman Kelly are a good example. The camera angles aren't even that disparate, but the appearance of the speed and distance covered aren't the same.

Roger gets snowballed, and that's probably why he couldn't slip though to the inside.

Bonus ride, Proneman milking a small one inside...
