there is usually a perfect spot to be in just in front of the breaking wave

Grom

Grom surfs North Carolina, and while he's a grom, he's the coolest grom you'll ever meet. We only wish we could surf half as good as this shredder can. He'll be on the net looking for cool and funny surfing stuff, but also talking about what's shaking in North Carolina.

Tandem Surfers: Loved by Themselves, Loathed by Others

What could be better than holding up a female counterpart in a gymnast-like pose while surfing on a wave? Not much. Except maybe getting the barrel of your life, or launching a 360 air - well, that’s what the regular surfers say. They want to do what the tandem surfers do, but they don’t want [...]

A Kook’s Guide to: Not looking like a kook while walking up to your break

(Sorry Mr. Kook, I know that kookiness is your domain, but I had to do this subject - Feel free to put up any posts using the title “A Kook’s Guide to” if you want…)
Disclaimer: This is a parody meant to be read by real surfers. But read this as if you were a clueless [...]

What not to do with surfboards on top of your car

WIPEOUT!!!
A lot of people are idiots. Even surfers. This guy is a great example of a surfer who didn’t get his daily dose (let your imagination figure it out…). If I was that guy, the first thing that would go through my mind as the car started tipping is “Oh sh!t!!! [...]

“iJoy” watching people make fools of themselves

An all time low for board sport trainers, the iJoy balance board looks like the biggest waste of money. Ever. Really, you just stand on it, and you set it to an intensity (if that’s what you want to call it…) and then - BAM! - it shakes! That thing looks easier [...]

Waxy Wax - product review

Just the sheer magnitude of all the different brands of surf wax to choose from can make your head spin, and often times you just basically close your eyes, reach into the wax box and pick a random bar of wax. More times than naught, you’re satisfied with your “choice”. In fact, you convince [...]

They’re still just your average pro.

While watching the recent ASP World Tour event at Trestles on the interweb (Gosh, when are they ever gonna get on t.v.!), I started to notice one trait that pro-surfers possess that has seemingly drifted past the majority of us “mortals”: Pro surfers are actually human. Yes, it’s shocking, but true. The curtain of [...]

Why do they even try?

My reaction to this:
1. “WTF?”
2. Blog about it
3. Never go on Youtube again (that, of course, is false)

New STPLxAirwalkâ„¢ shoes review.

If you surf, chances are, you skate. And if you skate, chances are, you spend a lot of your hard-earned cash on shoes. Well, during this back-to-school season (Oh crap, that’s tomorrow) Jeff staple released a new line of shoes combining style and functionality into an inexpensive skate shoe. $30-$50. A [...]

Nice Racks!

I don’t know about you, but I seriously had a problem sleeping at night knowing that my precious boards were leaning precariously against a wall. It grinds my gears. But you know what? I decided to make a place wear my boards could sleep at night, feel protected, and not get dinged. [...]

Ugh, I think I just barfed in my mouth a little - courtesy of tourists

WB 09 from Matias Ferrario on Vimeo.
Yeah yeah, I know, “at least they’re having fun.” Well at least they could’ve kept their little vacation a secret by not making a movie on Vimeo. I was just searching for some cool local surfing vids, and what do I find? The latest episode of [...]
