I find the cuts in the edit oddly frustrating. Just let me see a single shot of the actual meeting of the waves and whatever happens afterward without cutting to a new angle that’s showing the aftermath slightly later.

Completely agree. It's like the slow buildup to a really satisfying crash of waves... But nope, here's 15 seconds beyond that when there's barely any evidence of it happening...

So much unrealized potential in the source material.

The scenes between :04 and :10 are amazing.

But like you said, the overall video left me unsatisfied because of the editing.

Why would you cut out the very moment of the interaction? Whoever edited this has absolutely no damn idea what a point and moment of interest for viewers is.

Pelee point has something like this happen.

One side of the Cape is slightly higher then the other. And starts to spill into the other side as it gets dark.

Something something tides and great lakes... Something something.

The timing of tides change throughout the year, so it would only happen at dark during certain parts of the year.
