The West Coast has something cooking. You can smell it from Blacks to Rincon. Here’s your personal invite to the BBQ. In 2010, California saw 7 surfers on the World Tour – plus a wildcard in Timmy Reyes. The surfers were: Dane Reynolds, Taylor Knox, Bobby Martinez, Pat Gudauskas, Brett Simpson, Tanner Gudauskas, and Nate […]
I’ve reached 100 followers. This is my official thank you to all of you. I’ve spent a lot of time watching videos and reading articles about “how to grow my website”, “how to grow my brand”, etc. What I’ve found is a lot of tricks and tips about how to feed these algorithms the correct […]
The contest at Bells is called on. 30ish minutes of waiting for a start. In the midst of lunch for the kid, lunch for myself, afternoon baseball, mental planning. A quick toss outside. The event has slipped my mind. ‘Pop’ goes the leather. The rain is gone. My team lost, again. What else happened? I […]
It feels like the Woz is playing Deebo from the movie Friday. In this scene, we – the general audience – would play Red. His dad, driving the car, would be BeachGrit. Finally, Deebo is representing the Wizzle. Now, the bike is clearly a symbol. The bike could be depicting the time we would like […]
I’ve decided I love Sunset Beach as a venue on the CT. I think it should stay forever. The difficulty of the wave is always evident, which makes it that much sweeter when a surfer does complete an excellent ride. Throw out the wave pool and keep this stop, please. Speaking of excellent rides, we […]
Fourteen. Thats how many heats remain in the Hurley Pro Sunset Beach after the Women’s Round of 16 ran yesterday – much to the dismay of the internet. At least the portion of the internet that is the Woz’s IG comment section. This isn’t a Beachgrit article, so I won’t be directly quoting from that […]
Maybe it’s just me, but I was pleasantly surprised at the waves yesterday. Again, could be me, but I thought it was supposed to be blown to shit throughout the majority of this waiting period, similar to what we saw for Day Two. Clearly mistaken. Note to self – learn to read charts and forecasts […]
We’re now 4 days into the waiting period and 6 surfers have been sent home; Courtney Conlogue, Teresa Bonvalot, Maxime Huscenot, Connor O’Leary, Kai Lenny, and Zeke Lau. Yeah. Zeke, who I previously called “Mr. Sunset”, has gone two for two with interference situations in the first two events. This one cost him the heat, […]
Well I guess the first thing to do is to look at the forecast right? That’s the M.O; see the wave prediction before we make the surfing prediction. Talk about how this surfer is better than that one in the waves we might see in the first few rounds. Advise picking a fantasy team who […]
Have you ever taken a road trip in a vehicle that was not fit for the job? Some clunker that had you anxious the entire ride with thoughts of breakdown, brakes going out, and tire falling off, the whole adventure taking hours longer than it should. Remember the feeling of relief once you finally reached […]
