Hope you have a happy Easter  weekend with lots of good waves and food. I am leaving you with a backdoor barrel shot from Billy Thiel  till I get back from my Easter break on Kauai. Hope you find some Easter kegs.

Here’s a few random shots Billy took a few days ago when Pipe had some waves. Not bad for only  having a basic set up.  Lets hope for more spring surf like this. Check out Dubs wounded duck (JP) ARS… classic.

Hit up OTW and Backdoor today and the waves were fun . They were holding the girls surfing event at Pipeline and it was sad as only the bodyboarder girls were doing anything cool  or near the barrel of course. Girl surfers should not have a contest out at Pipeline it is a waste of [...]

One of my vices is that when its flat I scan all the computer swell charts around the world watching for good waves. I keep seeing sick waves  all over the world especially Australia this time [...]

We saw Billy ($100′s ) Thiel out shooting some photos in the shore break so we went out and joined him. Also all the women bodyboards ( Neymara, Arnuate,Lilly who [...]

Any time I go to California I  try to eat In and Out burger at least once. It tastes so good when the double double animal style  hits your mouth. Yummy.. On my last trip a worker  had me sign his old Hubb board in exchange for a  free meal… Stoked.. Nah I paid for [...]

While I was in California last week I stopped by the Ocean Current HQ to put the finishing touches on a new  line of signature items. Including some super tech, high performance board shorts.
