Ground Event / Encounter Jet Blast
General None Reported / Taken
Procedure; Environment - Non Weather Related
Winds and weather had SFO operating with both arrivals and departures using Runway 28L/R. We were cleared into position Runway 28R after a B777 landed on the same runway. The B777 cleared the runway but held short of Runway 28L. We were then cleared for takeoff. The takeoff was normal and I was Flying Pilot. I happened to notice the B777 to the left between the parallels as I began a normal rotation. As we passed the B777 we experienced a hard jolt from the left. Thankfully it was a sudden but short jolt as it required some maneuvering to settle the flight path. I am not sure if the B777 had been cleared across but it felt like a significant jet blast we got from the heavy. No anomalies or limitations were exceeded. The flight continued normally.
