DailyStoke.com began when a couple of surfers wanted to create a daily compendium of surfing-related posts from a wide variety of contributors, from across the United States and beyond. On a daily basis (yes, smart name, we know) we cover anything from information for shortboarders, loggers, wannabes, fat guys, old guys, hot wahines, kooks, the next Kelly Slater, the ASP addicts and everyone in between. (We once inadvertently started a war with the skimboard community.) The site is loaded with commentary, images, product reviews, photos of wipeouts and all the cool, stupid, and bizarre things in the surfing world. We’ve been truly stoked to do some great interviews with everyone from Kelly Slater and Andy Irons to Rabbit Bartholomew, Wingnut and Laird Hamilton.

We love surfing. We’re stoked.

Hope you’ll be stoked by checking out our stuff.

P.S. We want to save our oceans and our beaches so that our little groms can be just as stoked as we are about surfing. Join Surfrider now.
