Off the grid In Baja - Drift Surfing
Y ou know when you read a book and it takes you away. It takes you to a place, through untouched lands and untravelled waters. It takes you past the horizon, it submerges you into a reality painted in your mind through only words. Niebla tells the story of Passenger Ambassador Barry Mottershead and his group of friends who journey through a vast desert landscape using sea kayaks and a trusty 4×4 to navigate their way south.

My case was small enough to hold a camera housing and a wetsuit with those all important flippers. Nothing more except two pairs of boardies and two tees. This was enough to place above my head on the flight in order to arrive knowing my stuff was safe and not thrown to pieces by the carrier I was flying with.

Double Trouble: Tandem Surfers on a mission to get barrelled - Drift Surfing
Think of tandem surfing and you immediately envisage something out of the opening credits of Hawaii Five-0, girls held aloft by guys performing daring acrobatics out on the surf. The ancient Hawaiian sport seems to have undergone a bit of a rebirth in recent years, usually it’s two people surfing one board combining partner lifts with traditional longboarding. But this is Portrush, Northern Ireland, not the North Shore. For one thing, there aren’t the same waves or weather but this hasn’t stopped two of its local surfers trying it out and quite possibly starting a new craze in these parts of tandem surfing on a SUP. Carl Russell and his younger brother Jamie are pretty much stalwarts of the surf scene here. They’re not averse to trying out a few creative moves themselves, quite the opposite, but it seems that what began as a bit of fun together doing the odd handstand on the SUP is now evolving into a more singular aim: to get barrelled. Drawing ideas and inspiration from watching Oahu’s infamous pro-surfer and RedBull athlete Jamie O’Brien online (whose antics, amongst others, include surfing a soft surfboard at Jaws) Carl says that it was initially something for them… View More »

BOARD BUDDY: LONG WALK? WIDE BOARD? SHORT ARM?
You Need Extra Reach! Check out this news from the little company who cooked up this why-didn"t-I-think-of-that device . . .
"Board Buddy is a great way to carry your surfboard to the beach. This simple and easy-to-use surfboard carrier gives you a firm grip on your board. Made of tough, durable ABS plastic, Board Buddy slides right onto the rail of your board when you"re headed for the surf. It"s a surfboard carrying device for a longboard or shortboard, or carrying two boards.
"We tried many things on the market over the years . . . bags, strips, holders that had round tubes and ropes that let the board twist in the wind. We wanted control and a normal hand feel to carry our board, not a strap over the shoulder. Board Buddy does just that.
"Board Buddy comes into it"s own on long walks, steep trails, and windy days. Perfect for kids, women and men who need more reach to carry wide longboards. Board Buddy is better for your body, too. It gets the surfboard off your head and off your hip. You only need one hand to carry your board. Board Buddy also keeps the wax out of your hair and on your board.

Sharing the Stoke: The Queen of the Coast - Drift Surfing
Imagine you and your friends could surf alone for an hour at one of the best surf spots on the planet, according to numerous lists: southern California’s Rincon, the Queen of the Coast. You deserve this, as favourable karma coming back because of the good you’ve done in the world. That’s the idea behind the Rincon Invitational, organized annually by the Groundswell Society to recognize non-profit organizations, surf clubs and businesses for their public-service activities. The event began eight years ago as the “Sharing the Stoke Invitational,” designed to promote a spirit of aloha in the surfing community. It’s an un-contest in which shared waves are scored higher than waves ridden alone. Points are awarded for total waves ridden, total waves shared by one or more team members, and total number of surfers on the shared waves. Awards are also given for Best Wave and Team Spirit. You might not be surfing alone, however, as non-participants are not excluded from the contest zone. In keeping with the spirit of the event, “playground monitors” help to keep things social. And dropping in on a free surfer carries a heavy penalty – ten waves subtracted from your team’s score.

Surfing in New York - Drift Surfing
Surfing in any major city is hard work but the Big Apple is about as brutal as it gets. In the winter when the waves are pumping temperatures can drop to as low as -25 °C with hurricanes and tornadoes regularly dropping by for fun. In the summer the temperatures pick up, but the waves are smaller and the beaches are wall-to-wall jam packed, you’ll need some serious skill to navigate the water-bound obstacles. All in all New York surfing is considered mad. Thankfully Andreea Waters has been on hand to capture this madness in its purest form, from the highs of a summer surf to the wintry depths of deprivation, a day in the life of the American urban surfer certainly isn’t for the faint-hearted. Andreea follows dedicated wave hunters to the end of the A-train and beyond and peeks into this passionate way of life through authentic photography and several surfers’ personal journeys.

Father’s Day Gift Ideas for the Surfing Dad | The Inertia
Every year, on the third Sunday of June, people across the U.S. celebrate Dad. This year, Father’s Day falls on the 19th, which means that you don’t have much time to get the fathers in your life a nice gift. If you have a dad who surfs and are having some trouble deciding what to get them, here are some great gift ideas for his day. Some are grand, some are simple. Some will cost you a pretty penny and some won’t break the bank. But whichever you choose, Dad will love it.

Beach Vault Is A Better Way To Bury Your Valuables In the Sand at the Beach | The Inertia
Surfing means going to the beach year round. But enjoying the waves and enjoying the beach are two different things for the most part–meaning the optimum time of year to sit on the sand is when it’s warmest, during the summer.In summer, beaches are packed. The more people, the higher the probability that ne’er-do-wells will seize an open opportunity to steal the diamond earrings or gold bars you carry with you for your average fun-in-the-sun beach day.If you’re like me and you find yourself with no alternative except to bury your phone in the sand when no one’s looking to prevent theft, only to find sand has worked its way into even its smallest crevices, there may be a better way.

How Surfing Becomes a Weapon of Peace | The Inertia
It was September 2002 when I met Judah. He was a small, wiry kid. His style on a surfboard was somewhat spastic but nonetheless he was a good surfer.We spoke for the first time stepping on the coral reef of Grajagan, in the island of Java. He was coming in from the surf, emanating the sort of wisdom one has after having spent three days out there. As for me, a bit lost and lonesome and about to venture out for the first time into the sanctuary of waves that, until then, I’d only known through magazines and films.

Fim de semana "havaiano" no Rio - Surfguru
O frio que atingiu o Rio de Janeiro, com temperaturas que chegaram aos 8,6º C, a menor em 14 anos, trouxe também uma ondulação impressionante durante o fim de semana. Foram emitidos alertas de ressacas na capital fluminense até terça-feira. A força do mar em Copacabana destruiu parte da arena olímpica do vôlei de praia e provocou alguns estragos pela cidade. O Centro de Hidrografia da Marinha registrou uma onda de 6m próxima à Baía de Guanabara, no sábado, mas outros picos cariocas também foram brindados com ondas poderosas, para a alegria de big riders como o pernambucano Carlos Burle e o local Pedro Scooby.
Uma multidão de surfistas e bodyboaders também aproveitou o swell de ares havaianos nos trópicos em um sábado ensolarado, quando a praia de São Conrado, no canto esquerdo e na Laje do Sheraton, assim como o Posto 5 de Copacabana, ficaram lotados. O mar foi subindo durante o dia e amanheceu gigante no domingo. As condições estavam adversas, com o frio, o vento e as imensas paredes de água com buracos, deixando o mar vazio. Entre os poucos que se aventuraram nas ondas ameaçadoras, Scooby disse que o treino de domingo no canto esquerdo foi valioso para a preparação para a temporada de inverno em Nazaré, Portugal.

An Ode to the “Old Guys” | The Inertia
My kids are growing up fast, my joints are beginning to ache and it’s taking me that bit longer to put on my wetsuit. Call it vanity, call it a keep sake, but it occurred to me late last year when I turned 50 that aside from the odd photograph I had no visual record of my more than 20 years of surfing.
Plenty of increasingly faded memories alright, but nothing that you could shake a stick at.
Just as important as this realization was the thought that every local surf scene has its regular lineup of kooks, groms and rippers, as well as its elders. And it was this latter group that I wanted to honor in some way.
“Grumpy old dudes,” “silver surfers,” “good ol’ boys,” and the list can go on. Call them what you will but these same surfers keep an eye out for others in the water and enforce our rules when necessary, but more importantly they keep on keeping on by continuing to surf. In doing so they provide an inspiration to one and all: young and well, young at heart.
This is the video I made with Alan Coyne, Stuart McMullen and Dave Flynn with the help of award winning director, photographer and, himself a surfer, Kev L. Smith.The date was April 2 2016.
The breaks were Cornish and Moy, off the coast of Lahinch, Co. Clare, Ireland. Perfect by anyone’s standards for a Life in the Day.

Wisdom: Linda Benson | SURFER Magazine
72, Encinitas, California
“Being accepted” among the guys back in the late ‘50s wasn’t a big deal because surfing was just so new to everyone. I started surfing when I was 11, in 1955, and the surfing explosion had just begun. As surfing got a little more progressive, it wasn’t as easy for some women as it was for me. I was lucky.Improving your surfing makes you feel good. I was very shy and had low self-esteem as a teen, so when I found surfing, I was going to hang on to it for dear life. Maybe every kid feels this way, but I felt like I was out in left field, and there was really no reason to feel this way, but I did.

Chloé perde com polêmica - Waves
O título da etapa francesa do Longboard Qualifying Series ficou “em casa”. Na grande final, disputada nas ondas de Vieux-Boucau, França, Chloé Calmon se empenhou, mas após uma marcação de interferência, a brasileira acabou derrotada pela francesa Alice Lemoigne, local das Ilhas Reunião, que reside na região.Faltando cinco minutos para o fim da bateria, Chloé liderava com folga a final com a somatória de 14,84 contra 11,00 da francesa e, usando a regra de marcação, posicionou-se a frente de Alice. No momento em que a francesa tentou pegar uma onda, a brasileira remou embaixo, impedindo que ela desse continuidade.”Numa decisão surpreendente, os juízes deram interferência de remada da Chloé. Essa regra de punição, assim como a de marcação, consta nos livro de regras da WSL, mas de acordo com os presentes, ela não aconteceu”, disse Miguel Calmon, pai da Chloé.Chloe ainda conseguiu outra boa nota, 7,43, que levaria sua somatória 15,10, mas devido a punição, apenas uma de suas notas foi computada totalmente, a outra foi cortada na metade. Com isso Alice Lemoigne somou 12,10 e levantou o caneco.”Eu cometi um erro, eu realmente pensei que tinha prioridade e no momento não entendi o que estava acontecendo. É a primeira vez que recebo uma interferência”, afirmou Chloé. “Alice é um grande surfista e uma boa amiga, estou triste por não ganhar, mas ao mesmo tempo feliz por ela”, complementou a brasileira.Retrospecto – Chloé Calmon liderou as estatísticas do campeonato, com cinco de suas notas entre as 10 maiores do evento, inclusive a maior. Bastante decepcionada, Chloe agradeceu a torcida brasileira presente. A brasileira agora parte para Portugal, para outra etapa.Masculino – A final dos homens foi familiar, disputada entre os irmãos. Antoine e Edouard Delpero disputaram ferozmente o título da etapa e o caçula, Antoine, levou a melhor na disputa.”É sempre um sonho de surfar uma final contra o meu irmão, nós sabemos que é uma possibilidade, mas o nível competitivo é tão alto que é algo impressionante”, disse Antoine. “Um incentivando o outro todo o tempo é o que realmente nos faz surfar melhor e mais relaxado ao mesmo tempo”, disse o campeão.

A Research Project to Uncover the Identity of the Brazilian Surfer | The Inertia
Brazil, as it stands right now, is the most surf-stoked nation on the planet.Surfing is a social transformation agent. It’s a relevant economic factor. In Brazil alone the sport generated nearly $3 billion USD in 2008 and accounted for 1.4 million jobs. Though having two world champs and plenty of quality surfers, we still lack of a strong national league and investments on the base category. We’re the third biggest surfing nation in the world and we don’t know who is the Brazilian surfer. What do they want, who do they influence, what do they consume and who do they aspire to be?But what about the biggest question: Why is he or she so notoriously known as bad-mannered?

The Lost Weekend - Drift Surfing
A call to the wild, a hunt for these waves or just an excuse to escape to the Irish coast with friends, Finisterre’s latest visual offering gives you a taste of the good life; if by good you mean clean lines, killer breaks and the opportunity to roam free. At least for a couple of days. The trip begins in the wee hours – tired eyes, tired minds and tired souls weary from the day to day routine quickly igniting as the drive through epic coastal scenery that the Emerald Isle is so known for sparks a new excitement in the crew. Ambassadors Matt Smith, Noah Lane, Easkey Britton, Fergal Smith and Sandy Kerr ventured out to Ireland last winter with boards in tow to tread the lines, swap tales and create some new ones, with Chris McClean along for the ride documenting their every move. These friendships forged at sea had led to the promise of new adventure, and it was a promise not to be reckoned with. Waves for days, welcoming new faces into the fold and celebrating old friendships, The Lost Weekend was a chance to reconnect with nature and each other, and was – quote –… View More »

The soul of South Korea - Drift Surfing
Long considered a layover spot on the way to more conventional surf destinations, South Korea is now home to a burgeoning year-round surf scene. It might not have a spot on your bucket list yet, but there are many reasons why it should. Anyone who has stepped outside the cities in Korea knows of the country’s gentle beauty, which extends to both the waves themselves and the small crew riding them. Typically, much of the coastal regions are economically challenged fishing and farming communities that defy the stereotype of modern, cosmopolitan Korea. Surfing, which has boomed in South Korea in recent years, also creates opportunities for such areas to reimagine themselves as thriving, vibrant beach towns. Young Korean surfers are already buying old beach houses and building surf businesses out of railway containers. And the lineups are far from empty at hotspots like Busan and Jeju Island as Koreans discover the great waves on their doorsteps and join the pioneers who have long nurtured a small, thriving scene there. If you crave cold water, fear not. During the winter months, South Korea offers up 2,400 kilometers of empty potential—though you may have to trudge through snow to get to the… View More »

Looking forward, rarely backwards: The wisdom of larrikin Bob McTavish - Drift Surfing
Since 1962 surfer and shaper Bob McTavish has experimented, refined and help redefine the way we surf today. From his base in Bryon Bay he and his crew craft world class boards. The ever-cheerful Mr. McTavish puts down his planer for a few minutes with Drift. How was Spain? Did you get in the water much? I shaped in San Sebastián in Spain, at Pukas/Olatu, and stayed in Guéthary, so I surfed there amongst the crowd. But I love the place. An old favourite spot. Matt Warshaw describes you as ‘Cheerful Australian shaper’ you certainly have a reputation for being one of the happiest people in an industry full of cynics. What’s your secret? And can I have the patent? I’m a positive person who is always looking forward, rarely backwards. I’m convinced the Creator will soon step in to sort out the planet, so that really helps. Plus surfing/shaping is my only specialty, and I’m born for it and love it. How do you feel the role of the shaper is evolving with the addition of shaping machines and increase cheap mass produced foreign imports? Machines have their place. Firstly producing the endless numbers of very similar short boards,… View More »
