Andino is such a generational shake-up, that he boggles the mind, Snips, Mike Parsons declared his Perfect 10 the "Best Wave I've...

ever seen at Trestles." Heavy words Mike, but for somebody with that much industry and local experience and being Mr. Surfline, I'd say this is heavy praise. Take a look at Slide 5 and if you brain doesn't melt at the 3rd Ariel he pulls on the same wave, then maybe you need to check your pulse.

This kids are a new shift, don't know where this ariel revolution will land but it's an exciting time to be a spectator as these kids redefine what's possible...

Interested in a 7 Day Surf Trek along some unpopulated Surf Beaches in France???

I thought you might be...outside magazine posted this article detailing a 7 day 40 miles trek along the cost. Pictures were included. Makes you want to book a trip to Europe when it might be firing...

Weekend's coming swell...

Looks like San Diego County is going to get hit with a fun little swell this coming weekend...5 Foot waves hitting through North County SD and South County SD and SC also getting some good waves...

I'm hungrily awaiting this end of June Gloom...it makes things feel a bit hung in purgatory as the sun hits its Zenith and we are stuck in this offshore waiting game. An inversion in the making. Could be worse...it could be Texas...(no surf, crazy heat...etc)

A Summer Time Ode to Lowers...

4 many people the Hwy 101 vibe of Lowers is enough to shake them off, but if you look for the hack off the wall Mr. Sl8r pulls 47 seconds in & how playful those waves look; you can see why people keep coming to Southern California's favorite H20-park ;-)...it's a study in patience, wake up early or stay out late enough, and that rouge wave comes your way to make you forget all the effort it took to get slotted...

Happy International Surfing Day

Happy International Surfing Day 20 one and all...the waves might not be firing in North SD County, but if you got the means, take advantage of the long day and paddle out :) (The H20's getting warmer, was up to 63/64 on Sunday @ Swami's)...
