Instead of busting your head open with an Indo Board, a great new product to try (or buy for a logger near you) is the NOHO Surf Trainer, with damn cool video shown here. Invented by Mark Carlson, the California-designed product consists of four pod-like-things strapped to the bottom of your board. The pods are [...]
There are definitely advantages to going to your local gym after work to try to get in shape. Your gym has every machine and weight setup you could possibly need to get a great workout, not to mention the scenery is usually pretty good.
But once you’re there, and finally not distracted for long enough to actually get [...]
I have just lost 8 minutes of my life that I will never ever get back and you can too!!
I would point out that surfing fitness should never, ever be done on the beach. Don’t you agree? I mean, in the 8 scintillating minutes that I spent watching this one, I was really thinking [...]
Most of us love Kelly Slater’s surfing and wish we could be this guy. In and out of the water, he has a life most of us can only envy. A charmed life, as we learned in our interview with Kelly. Wanted to take a few moments to point out in photos a few more [...]
Are you one of the 12 people worldwide that has the Vasa Surf Paddling machine in your apartment or Malibu beach house? Send us an email at info@dailystoke.com - we’d love to hear from ya. I am VERY VERY close to actually buying one, and my wife doesn’t know. Hehehe. It’s been so fricken flat [...]

This is Brett Simpson training to be the best possible contest surfer he can be. Ian “Kanga” Cairns is helping him out, and I think it’s safe to say that dude knows a few things about professional surfing. After Timmy Reyes, Brett Simpson is probably Huntington Beach’s next best hope for a world champion. Both [...]
Always mind-surfing I can’t help but lean in and arm-drag under sidewalk bush pits myself…apparently these lads live in a bush barrel rich zone.
I have recently discovered longboard skateboarding to be a great way to train for surfing during flat spells. The more I do it, the more stoked I get and after returning to the water after a recently long flat spell, I am convinced it helps with my performance in the water. Because I feel longboards [...]
Santa Cruz surfer Kenny “Skindog” Collins is a madman. He’s successfully established himself as a big-wave hellman with a knack for finding his line into cavernous tubes at places like Maverick‘s and Puerto Escondido (see this). Looks like he‘s finally met his match.
