It's been a while since my last gratuitous lineup shot. I need to move to the tropics!

Instructor


Spring Suit Booty Keg-Belly Hat Man has these students hanging on his every word...then again, maybe he's not the surf instructor for this class.

From the Hurley Pro...the judges should be embarrassed for the interference call on Julian Wilson.

The Ostrich

YDD team rider Bronson Hilliard shows us a very progressive move, The Ostrich! 

Key components of this maneuver are a high speed fan, ass in the air, and head buried in the pillow. I wonder where he got the inspiration for this one?

Self Preservation



This is how one should handle an interloper on a wave.

SUP - A Poem

The S.U.P.

Saltwater drips down his hanging gut

wrapped up in neoprene, but not enough.

He stands outside the breakers

on a board so big it needs CF numbers.

Gripping a Koa wood paddle

cut in a factory by the sons of kings.

What's with the S.U.P., guy?

Can't catch waves without it.

Laying It Out!

Who knew that planking was good training for surfing?

Honorable mention, reader Carl sent the pic in as well. Thanks for thinking of us Carl.

NZ Swell Bonus Edition

I can only imagine that this is what the Wedge will look like at one point today.

Did Someone Say Swell?

I guess the word is out, photo originally posted by Stu Dog from the sufermag BB.

I got a few keepers this morning with only a handful of guys out...but it was a beach break and the paddle out wasn't quite as friendly as the above!
