Is surfing superstitious in any way? For example, do you have a mojo before a surf? Specific stretching routine? Certain playlist you listen to on the way to the beach? Do you only use a particular wax? Smoke two joints in the morning? Think of your typical lot lizard who refuses to paddle out anywhere […]
I know, I know. I just said I was done with the Woz for a bit. However, the Wiz just recently announced the schedule for next year’s CT tour, much to the dismay of the general surf fan. Comments flooded in from all directions on the WSL’s Instagram post: “look at these comments. Listen to […]
With the Championship Tour coming to a close for the remainder of this year, we will be diving into more surf material that is unrelated to contests. A few examples: Surf NFT’s, crowds & localism, board materials & technology, and more. That’s just a few upfront topics to cover, not to mention a few different […]
My last few blog posts have been solely about competitive surfing. Thinking back on this has my brain questioning, is surfing even meant for competition? An ocean wave breaking can never be recreated. There will never be an exact replica of that specific swell line. There are no constants in surfing. The closest relative sports […]
In the latest episode of the Ex – WPS Surfer Rep’s descend from divinity, we find Mr. Conner Coffin extending yet another plea for sorrow.

Well folks, the time has come. The long road to producing our first project here at .hvoide. has finally come to an end. Without further ado, I am stoked to introduce one of my best friends – Sage Sorochman, owner of BIRDNEST STUDIOS. Since I have known this guy, it has always been apparent he […]
Behold, the new movie with the most hype since Snapt4, and the only other video we have linked since then. Crane Brain. Enjoy. -hwilsin.
Would you rather surf by yourself, or with a friend/group? This goes for pretty much any activity or passion as well, snowboarding, skating, etc. What do you personally prefer? Which do you actually partake in more, single or together? Certain circumstances I understand almost a necessity for being cooperative, say, surfing a cranking swell on […]
Is there tension in the surfboard shaping atmosphere? Maybe tension is the wrong verbiage, and I don’t want to say drama either, but there seems to be some perceived – unease in the air. Possibly some agitation that has been slow-going for years now? Here’s what I got for you. Britt Merrick was just documented […]
