2010 Billabong Pro J-Bay - Someone ship me there please

I don’t normally post a lot of pro stuff on the blog….but this J-Bay footage is pretty radical…and it makes me pretty freaking jealous that we are stuck in limbo-summer-surf. I love J-bay anyways...but this makes surfing it look off the hook.



Even though the heat along our coast is breaking (and the eddy reforming)...I could sure use a cold, hollow, overhead pointbreak right now…

(Guys on the email list…make sure to click through www.socalsurf.com to see the video. It is definitely worth spending a few minutes watching the interweb video)

Some Southern Hemi Video

Some video of the Southern Hemi in action...

I particularly like the ragdoll at 1:11 and the flying squirrel at 0:50

On a random note did you guys see the funky eddie cloud bank moving in this afternoon? It looked like a winter storm bearing down.

James Taylor breaking his back on a wave in South Africa

I ran across this video while I was working today and I thought I would share it with you. As a guy with back trouble I winced the instant I saw the title of this video and getting your spine hurt is never a good thing...but I had to watch nonetheless.



It is crazy that this was all captured on camera...but for James sake I am stoked that he is around to narrate it, even if it means a lot of rest/therapy for the next several months. Hopefully he will get better soon.

Random video – Holly Beck – South Bay dawn patrolling

Ran across this video while doing some work this morning…and while it isn’t super crazy or anything it is a pretty good use of the board-mounted camera and a good way to waste a few minutes. Oh and around the 2:40 mark you can see my mortal enemies stalking Holly in the background. (no means no flipper.)

Surf Video - Jaws Wipeout – Yeah this dude is bummed…

I usually don’t post things like this…but this guy gets worked.

Hmm over the falls at Jaws and an extra set wave to the dome for good measure...I think I will pass.



Not sure if you guys will be able to see this in the email...but it is worth clicking through to the site to watch it.

Newport Wedge Video 5.19.08

Here is some video of the Wedge on Monday. (Thanks pix0r!)

You might want to turn the sound on the video down (or off)...the guys shooting the video are really freaking excited about the wedge...well you will see what I mean.
