Video by Scott Gudahl:

"Hurricane Frank just hit Malibu and sent a full day of pumping surf back to LA. After being let down by the last Code Red 2 Swell. Frank showed up with some of the best surf to hit California. Hurricane season is in full effect and with the US open going strong this week Hurricane Frank couldn't have showed up at a better time. Started seeing clips roll in, seems like Newport and the wedge also go a solid session this morning. I appreciated all the love and comments from my last code red video, you all had some good/hilarious comments and kept me busy all week. I was in the middle of another street photography video but when this swell made a favorable track towards California I loaded up my gear and got back down to Malibu."


From Brad Jacobson:

" Malibu got really good on Wednesday July 20th. The waves were stacking all the way through... and yeah, it was super crowded.

I headed to Malibu to catch the Code Red Swell and decided to try something new, film off the end of the Malibu pier. The waves were really good and the angle turned out to be just right.

Thanks for watching. I'm Brad Jacobson and I'll see ya on the sand."

Santa Monica History Museum Speaker Series presents: Surf & Rescue: George Freeth and the Birth of California Beach Culture

Author Patrick Moser discusses his new book “ Surf & Rescue: George Freeth and the Birth of California Beach Culture,” which tells the story of mixed-race Hawaiian athlete George Freeth who brought surfing to Venice, California, in 1907.

Freeth’s inspiring life story is set against the rise of the Southern California beach culture he helped shape and define. Freeth made headlines with his rescue of seven fishermen, an act of heroism that highlighted his innovative lifeguarding techniques. He also founded California’s first surf club and coached both male and female athletes, including Olympic swimming champion and “father of modern surfing” Duke Kahanamoku. Often in financial straits, Freeth persevered as a teacher and lifeguarding pioneer–building a legacy that endured long after his death during the 1919 influenza pandemic. A compelling merger of biography and sports history, Surf and Rescue brings to light the forgotten figure whose novel way of seeing the beach sparked the imaginations of people around the world.

Free event for everyone.

DATE: August 4, 2022 TIME: 5:30pm – 7pm
