30ft Cliff Jumps & Big Waves | Steamer Lane, Santa Cruz

Steamer Lane is one of the most iconic and dangerous surf spots in Northern California. Off West Cliff Drive in Santa Cruz, the only way into the lineup is to leap off a 30-foot cliff. In this video you'll see surfers make that jump,drop into heavy waves breaking over rock, and share the water with the sea lions crowding Seal Rock just offshore. The break has a serious reputation: fast, powerful waves, rocks in the lineup, an eroding cliff edge. People have been seriously hurt here, and it's a spot where experience genuinely matters. A raw look at one of California's most legendary waves,the wildlife around it, and the surfers who take it on. 0:00 Cliff jump into the lineup 0:13 Surfers on the big waves 0:38 Seal Rock & the sea lions 1:40 More big wave rides Filmed on West Cliff Drive, Santa Cruz, California.
