Monday, July 26, 2010
The tube. The coveted prize that surfers look to capture with every session. The moment your body is cocooned in water, the fabric of time is stretched as you're overwhelmed with bliss. Now, while all barrels are not created equal: from the double overhead dreams at Indo, to the quick shoulder high pockets during low tide at your favorite local...

Saturday, July 10, 2010
These days, surfers are demanding more out of their surfboards. Often overheard is the intangible requirement of allowing an average surfer to feel confident in most conditions. Along comes the NDR by Surf Prescriptions to help fulfill that requirement. The NDR Quad has a fuller outline than a regular short board and because of what can only be...
Classic Longboard by TDK
Surfboard Reviews
Monday, April 12, 2010
Every surfer has it. It's a primal tendency rooted deep inside and it is always dying to release itself. The second you step on a surfboard it finds a place to escape. I am talking about style. No matter what board you are riding, style is involved. Style distinguishes every individual sitting in the line-up. Some would argue that particular...
Precision Model by AKA Surfboards
Surfboard Reviews
Monday, April 5, 2010
AKA Surfboards makes some rip-able boards and AKA's "Precision" Model is no exception. This model has a continuous rocker throughout so it really performs well in curvy beach breaks and steep lined up point breaks. We surfed this board with multiple fin configurations and in various types of surf from small mushy beach-break to overhead firing...
Body Glove Vapor 3/2mm Wetsuit
Accessory Reviews
Friday, March 19, 2010
Looking for maximum warmth and flexibility from a 3/2mm wetsuit? The Body Glove Vapor can deliver the performance you are looking for. I have been testing this suit for a few months and it has performed well beyond my expectations of a 3/2 (keep in mind, when it comes to cold water I'm a total wimp). The wetsuit stands up to wind and chill very...
Step Up by TDK Surfboards
Surfboard Reviews
Monday, March 15, 2010
It is always a bad sign when you are standing on the beach with waves thundering, knees shaking, and watching other surfers paddle out with big boards. All the while you're looking at your potato chip wondering if you might be under gunned. The feeling of paddling out with an eight foot charger gun when the waves are only chest high isn't much...

Surfboard Reviews
Friday, February 19, 2010
Building the perfect quiver for surfers is an arduous if not impossible endeavor. Unless you are an air boosting ripper who gets free boards or you are a shaper yourself then obtaining a multitude of boards is a costly experience. Well, TDK has an answer for the everyday surfer who can't afford to buy a different board every time Mother Ocean...
Flying Fish by AKA Surfboards
Surfboard Reviews
Wednesday, February 10, 2010
You are once again allowed to have fun while surfing with the Flying Fish by AKA Surfboards. This model has been my staple board for years now, I'm on my 3rd issue. The Flying Fish is super fast and loose, racy down the line, floats easy, laughs at flat spots, and keeps me in the water longer than my standard short board. Most people have a fish or...

These waist high waves had a suprising amount of spunk. They tended to jack up out of nowhere, and offered steep drops and fast rides. A poorly placed swim zone and an overzealous lifeguard forced surfers to curtail some nice lefts.
The offshore winds generated steep faces and beautiful rooster tails. Short boarders who were unable to cross the...
Longboarders came out en masse to surf some fun little glossy waves for a good cause.
