The only time that a power squat is acceptable is when it is accompanied by a bikini. Photo by Russ D.

NIMBY


Well, the ASP has come back to North County....and at my home break to boot! At least they chose a year when the sandbar is anemic and the tide is draining through the jetties in the middle of the heats each day. Hopefully they will not come back next year!

Beached Whales - Thanks Gustav


Hurricane relief volunteers attempt to get these two beached whales back in the water after Gustav forced them ashore! Sent in by reader Kevin who found the pic on a surf forum related to the Gulf.

23 Chips Revealed


I heard from 23 Chips over the long weekend. He said that someone wanted to see him in action...so here you go. I'm skeptical. Pic apparently from SurfInside.

The Teacher


This guy is teaching Little Red (see post immediately preceding this one) how to SUP. I guess all you need is a kayak paddle and an airplane wing and you've got a business.

Pic again sent in by reader Tony, who also says that the "instructor" doesn't even know how to surf. I'm just sayin...

SPF 1,000


This kid is stoked, but I think he needs more time in the sun!

The Final Straw


Well, this has got to be the ultimate insult. Looks like PaddleSurf Hawaii has knocked off the bonzer design for it's latest high performance SUP's. As a die-hard bonzerhead, I'm very sad today.

A Reminder



This summer has been nothing but a string of injuries for me. Reader rick posted this on another board and reminded me of what I have to look forward to locally this winter. God, I love surfing Swarmies.

Goat Boat Etiquette


I was thinking to myself this morning that we hadn't had a good Goat Boat post in a while, so I fired up Google. I came across this diagram that should help you all out the next time you're in a heat with your kayak and paddle. I'm assuming that the rules apply for SUP as well, since they're more Kayak than Surfboard.
