Product of the week!...

As seen on surfline a few weeks ago, here is the HANGAIR wetsuit drier. every suit wearing surfer should own one of these!
This is one of the most time saving innovations, and cold mornings are made easier when your suit isnt dripping or even heavy with water. often times it is 90% dry!!!
Now available at NIRVANA SURFBOARDS in Cardiff...
They are very well made as well! high quality plastic, and a pretty sizable moter inside! two speeds! it must be german engineered...!?

does size really matter?...

when your at todos, it matters! but in a pinch, the 6'9" that i chose worked extremely well! it all came down to the paddle. once you actually are dropping in, everything comes together. as a matter of fact it came together very well for me that day!! this NIRVANA SURFBOARD worked like a charm! it would of been nice to switch the numbers around though...maybe a 9'6" instead of 6'9", would of been the proper size for those conditions. oh well, just means we're gonna have to cut a 9'6" NIRVANA GUN for next time!

VIVA MEXICO!...Todos Santos, as good as it gets!!!

So Tuesday afternoon, as im walking through home depot picking out some materials for the shop, i get a call from Larry. he says its firing down south and that he had reserved a boat for us for tomorrow!... "what?...yer' kidding right? where?" he then proceeds to tell me that its gonna hit Todos Santos on weds, and its gonna be HUGE!!!..."Holy S%#T!!! its on!!!!"

So this is the documentation of our trip. we brought along our videographer Justin , so we could get some video footage for the next arena movie. I had my camera with me as well so i took these shots from the boat when i was done surfing. there were a lot of big names out there and some serious waves. Greg long, mike parsons, alex gray and a couple other big wave heroes. i was so amped to be out there shoulder to shoulder with these guys and the shear energy in the water was unfathomable! I was on an insane 6'9" NIRVANA gun which was too small to paddle into the bigger sets, but it was awsome once I got down the face. most of the guys were on 9'6" to 11'0" ft. boards. I got my fair share of waves, but it was a little more challenging being on a shorter stick. but once I got the hang of where to sit, and where to position my feet, it was insane! I was in heaven! BY FAR THE BIGGEST WAVES OF MY LIFE! I will post more as it arrives! so sit back and enjoy the ride!


Mexican border at 7am
amazing sunrise!
ensenada bay...
sketchy boat rentals...
green perfection!
yeah...it was big.
sheet glass conditions!
aquatic paparazzi!!
the swell just got bigger and bigger!!!
surfed out, sunburnt, hungry and grinning from ear to ear!!!
before: fresh 6'9"...this should work. right?
after: OH MY GOD! sweet board....wrong size! wheres my 9'6"at!? ! but once i got into the waves, they were manageable...barely. it was like being chased by a bull while pedaling a tricycle!
THANK YOU MEXICO!
