Garrett McNamara gives us the 411 about wipeouts: deepwater vs. shallow water.

We all love seeing this. I think I’ll go pick up a boogie board this week.

I hope that is 4 degrees C! The guys over at Surf Donkey suggested I check out this episode. I did, and have decided that I am glad I live in southern California because I don’t think I am core enough to hang with them. Check it out.

As the old saying goes, “When life gives you lemons, make lemonade.” Here, some surfers make the best of what everyone else sees as a bad situation.

Palm Beach, Florida was macking out with swells from The Perfect Storm. Piers were coming apart, boats sinking in the channel and a Captain is plucked from the raging sea.
Surfers were loving it!

I’ve got to say, I’m pretty impressed by these skimboarders. And the best part is, they stay inside on the ankle-slappers while the rest of us can ride the big ones.
