Whistling. Hooting. Yelling. Hollering. “RIGHT” “LEFT” “YO” However you call someone off a wave, it doesn’t matter. Whatever works best for you. The part of the world I live in, if you want to surf a wave with some sort of decent shape, it’s tough to get a peak to yourself. You need to be […]
The countdown is on – 1 Hour until the start of the Lexus Pipe Challenger. I was browsing around trying to find a surf cam (I quit paying for Surfline a while back) and it still looks dark, but I’m pretty sure it’s pumping. Looks like a proper swell. I haven’t written a prediction piece […]
Three tomatoes are walking down a street – papa tomato, mama tomato, and baby tomato. Baby tomato starts lagging behind and Papa Tomato gets really angry, goes back and squishes him and says, “ketchup.” Ketchup. What movie is that from? As previously mentioned, we are getting back into the groove of things. Which means it […]
Everywhere I look right now, I see people talking about sponsorships. It is the start of the new year, I guess. In case you missed it, there have already been a few major moves – like current World Champion Yago Dora leaving Volcom, and former World Champ Gabriel Medina leaving RipCurl; some random sponsor additions […]
Oxymoron – a figure of speech in which apparently contradictory terms appear in conjunction. I just heard the best oxymoron I’ve ever heard in my life, and it came from someone commonly referred to as “off”. He’s also widely called one of the greatest surfers of all time. Tom Curren recently joined Sterling Spencer on […]
…Paddling back out from getting BURNT on a second consecutive wave …Looking back over my shoulder, shaking my head at the approaching culprit “NICE, dude! Not even gonna look? That’s two in a row. I know you heard me…” …The offender glides by, sending a blank, glazed over stare as he passes by me back […]
Jordy Smith dropped an insane movie last week. A mind bending, perspective altering watch. My immediate thought – is Jordy the best 37 year old surfer, ever? I had to go back to 2010 Kelly clips to find out the short answer – no. If Jordy can win the title this year, like we were […]
Hey! What are you doing? No you’re not. What are you doing? I’m looking at you right now. You’re not riding a wave. What are you doing? Why? Why are you waiting for a wave? What about that one? So why are you waiting? Why? What makes a good one anyway? Can’t you have fun […]
This one has brought up some heated debates. Truth be told, if you are arguing against this rule, I’m not so sure how fun you are to surf with. It’s pretty straight forward. It feels like common sense, but you might be surprised.. Rule Number Eight – IF IT’S CROWDED, WEAR A LEASH. Look, I […]
There’s been a ton happening in and around surfing, and I’ve done a terrible job of keeping you up to date. My apologies. I’ve been busy. It’s quite a job that guy Santa has. My older son is at the age where he’s enamoured with Christmas. Advent calendars, Elf on the Shelf, cookies & milk, […]
