FITNESS WAKE UP CALL

the conditions were quite extreme with gale force onshore, solid swell and a heavy difficult paddle

anyways when it was time for my heat i paddled continuosly in effort to make it too the line up and was unfortunately unsuccesfull! so in the end i got knocked out by guys riding foam in the front as i only paddled and never caught a wave hahahaha

Whats cooking with all these scuicidal Whales?!

How crazy is it that all those whales beached longbeach!

This morning i went down to long beach after waking up to storys of seven killer whales to 47 pilot whales beached along long beaches shores. When i finally got down there, the beach was packed with people coming to check the whales. Can anyone tell me what type of whales they were? and what there mission was to beach our shores?

SURFING AND TATTOOS

I see a lot of surfers with tattoos today, I happen to like it even if it does keep you out of the water for two weeks. So in honor of this contest Im proposing that if I make it to top ten I will either get a giant Hurley symbol tattoo on my lower back, A dolphin jumping over my belly button, or a tattoo of me surfing a wave and getting shacked (my favorite thing ever). I will let you all decide on the tat if I make it to top ten. Some of you should want me to do it because I will be out of… Continue

PROGRESSION

I happen to believe that surfing is still in its infant stage. There is so much room for progression, I myself and working on some new tricks and would love to hear of any new tricks you BRA's are coming up with. I want to push the limits. I think one day everyone will surf on nuclear powered hover sharks. If anyone else has cool ideas of where we should progress let me know and I will tell the head of hurley when I win this contest. Another idea I had was inflatable boardshorts to prevent… Continue

Hey guys uploaded some sick footage of dungeons over the weekend. Some monsters coming through along with a heavy wipeout. filmed from the sentinal.
Do any of you oh's rate the swell was a little over rated? Even though checking some crazy beasts come through yesterday, i thought it'd be bigger?

Later all,

crazy photography

hello all...

so i was browsing through the net a few days ago and found some truly amazing pics taken by clark little (brock little's brother, the big wave surfer). there are some mad barrels shots which make the wave look completely motionless, some almost like glass. i am not trying to promote his site in any way but his pics are insane.

here's the link to his website http://www.clarklittlephotography.com/

im sure this will keep you occupied for a while seeing as you surf...… Continue
