Visitor Reviews of Ventura Overhead
“Maybe near the end of 1977, or beginning of '78, I surfed early morning hard offshore winds, 2-4' overhead fun - fair amount of people out. However, by noon, it got glassy and 20 foot. By the way, there was no left - it closes out this big. I rode a right which was my backside, no rail grab, tube of a lifetime.”
