Cascais Prime

Cascais Prime

We surfed the first day if the prime event over here in cascais. It was pretty solid storm surf but some really shreddable corners. Chunky onshore style. Super fun waves for a heat because everyone was pretty muh surfing their own peak and there was no hassling. Round two will be on tomorrow in similar […]

Portugal 2

Mentawaii’s Cut N’ Run Trip.

Mentawaii's Cut N' Run Trip.

A few weeks ago we got a call from Blair freaking out saying we might have the opportunity to go on the Ratu Motu (previously the indies 4), for a dream surf trip. It was a bit of a long shot and the trip went from on to off, to back on, but it did […]


Jersey Shore!

Jersey Shore!

I just returned from an all time week of laughs and waves while hanging out on the lovely Jersey shore. Sadly there was no Snookie sightings and the Situation wasn’t fist bumping during heats of the bel mar pro, but we did score some super fun little waves during the contest. I stayed at the […]


Cafe Luna Jam

Cafe Luna is a rad little restaurant in summerland a mere stones throw from my house. They have a sunny outdoor patio, a wood burning pizza oven, and delicious pizza among other tasty treats. They do it all from coffee in the morning, to dinner at night. Two of my buddies Donnie Hedden and Travers […]

This Friday night Channel Islands is throwing a party at their Melrose store in LA. They’ve done this party the last few years and let me tell you, It’s a damn good time. Great food, good people, and live music as well. Below is the flier. ANYONE can attend, all you must do is RSVP […]


Azores

Azores

I just got back yesterday from an epic trip to the Azores for a wqs prime event. It was the third prime I’ve competed in and I ended up getting 9th. I lost right in the last minute to Wiggoly Dantas when i made a mistake in letting him take a little wave when he […]


Way Back Wednesday!

Way Back Wednesday!

This photo was taken back in the good old days when Conner and I were both doing contests every weekend up and down the California coast competing against kids in the National Scholastic Surfing Association (NSSA) events. With us in the photo is one of the most dedicated and surf stoked humans on the planet! […]


Hendrix 12 String Blues

So I’ve been way into trying to learn the ins and outs of blues on the guitar. I’ve been spending hours every day when I’m not surfing or the waves are flat playing guitar and watching old videos of Muddy Waters, Buddy Guy, Robert Johnson, anything and everything blues really. This video of Hendrix jamming […]


Bobby Interviews

Surfing Magazine recently did a rad article in which Bobby Martinez interviewed several surfers about surfing and where they plan to take their lives after surfing… I thought it was a super cool idea and Bobby created a super interesting story around the topic. Surfing is not going to last forever, but many of us […]


ECSC

ECSC

Well, I’m currently in Virginia Beach for the 2013 ECSC event. Within this event there is a pro junior that is in correlation with a 4 star WQS event. For me, I came in high hopes of getting a result in the pro junior and qualifying for the ASP World Junior Championships, however, as of […]


Board Blog: 5’8 Rubble Epoxy

Board Blog: 5'8 Rubble Epoxy

This is a 5’8 19 2 1/4 Epoxy Fred Rubble with a twist. I say a twist because it is a modified version of the Fred Rubble which we created for super groveling. A la US Open, Virginia, Lacanau. The fin set up is Future fins. They are just a standard AM1 template but made […]


France in the Summer time….

France in the Summer time....

I’m here in Lacanau for a 5 star WQS event, but the last two days have been really flat. So, we had two lay days. My trip has turned more into a summer time french vacation than a contest trip. And let me tell you, there isn’t anywhere you’d be than walking down a hot […]


Update

Update

So some lame ass decided to hack our website a little while ago. Right as the us open started. Not that I understand the web world or anything, but he apparently did a really good job of completely destroying our site. The guys had to rebuild it, but finally we are back up and running. […]


African Adventure

Well, sorry for absolutely lagging on the blog but we actually were having some serious technical problems. However, I do have the pleasure to inform you that some very cool stuff is going to be kindling in the near future. We have been on an African Adventure for an upcoming youngwisetails production and we have […]


Griffin Colapinto

Meet Griffin Cola(pinto). Griffin is 14 years of age from San Clemente and has been ripping extremely hard as of late. Griffin has an awesome family and he is humbly becoming one of the next super groms from California. We really like hanging with Griffin. He’s a super nice kid, loves to school other kids […]


El Salvador!!

The quantity if blog posts has been seriously diminished lately and for that we apologize. I’ve been crazy busy traveling to contests and most of them have had no Internet. Last week I went to El Salvador for the reef pro 6 star event. The waves were absolutely firing and we had an amazing time. […]
