Moses Lake Flowrider
Every now and then a few of my friends will get a wild hair up they ass and do shit that you wouldn’t normally do. The other day was one such example. Here is an actual simulated conversation between people i made up: Bro 1: “Hey, wanna surf tomorrow?” Bro 2: “Sure. Where you wanna [...]
What to do when the waves are flat
Ever hit the coast only to find no surf? Don’t worry, it happens to everyone–you probably looked at the Magic Seaweed forecast. Here’s a list of a few things you can do at the beach rather than turning around and heading back to wherever you came from. Read Play iMob on the iPhone (My code: [...]
Sharks in Ocean Shores WA
I don’t go to Ocean Shores to surf much. The waves aren’t nearly as consistent as across the other side of Grays Harbor. I’ve been skunked more times in O Shores than anywhere else. Why do i keep going there? Mainly cause everyone else takes a left at Aberdeen. However, the other day i did [...]
Surfmobile
Early on in my surfing adventures i realized that i needed a mini-van. It wasn’t because i wanted to haul around all my sweet bros, nor did i think i’d have a better chance with soccer moms. It wasn’t even to help reduce my speeding ticket habit. I wanted a mini-van purely for comfort. With [...]
Go back to the Valley Bro
Surf has had a long history of localism. Stink eye, beach brawls, vehicular wax jobs, broken windows, mean blog comments, … i’ve even seen a “206 go home” spray painted in Westport.

Westport 071809
Paddled out with the water cam last weekend. Fun waves, warm, zero hassel and zero hassel. Here’s a shot of a longboarder that i managed to get between fumbling and perling.
Drawing Waves is Hard
Sometimes when I space out M – F, 8 to 5, I try to draw waves. Even though I was all about it when I was in 1st grade my drawing skillz went down the shitter quick. I’ve never been very good at drawing. Waves have got to be one of the more difficult things [...]
Beach Skeleton
On one of my last surf missions i came across this beast on the beach. Pretty crazy whatever it was. Anybody have any idea? I was thinking it was a seal. I think we lucked out seeing this cause it the tide got it the following morning.
Craigslist Surfboard for Sale Ad of the Day #5
Everett is coming fierce with used surfboards lately. Not sure why. In this latest ad, we have a nice 10foot longboard. Perfect summer time board–especially this summer (flat). The only problem is the price is a bit steep for a used board. $450 bucks. Oh wait…this was actually broke in half also. Dang…$450 bucks for [...]
