Eastern Surf Defying the Law @ York Beach
This video is interesting- I don’t know of many places where the lifeguards and police would make this much of an effort to clear the water of surfers…
STILL FILTHY, Occy at Sebastian, and My Unsolicited Soothsaying
This is almost as awesome as the movie itself!
My totally unprofessional, Still Filthy-based prediction is that REUBYN ASH is going to be huge. His SF section is nonsensical. I don’t know, like I said, I have absolutely no authority to make these kinds of wild conjectures, but I just have this hunch that he’s gonna blow up.
Wave SKIING: An Entirely New Type of “Skurfing”
A friend sent me this video, which I think is really interesting, and could, possibly, be a new thing- at least for those who have access to the expensive equipment involved. Mike Douglas and Cody Townsend, who are both professional free skiers, were always curious about whether it was possible to ski on waves, they say. After “years of dreaming” and much experimentation, they settled on alpine setups (crazy!) and gave it a shot in Hawaii. They had to be towed in, for fairly obvious reasons, but once they were in, they were independent. Their success is kind of amazing. Watch it and let me know what you think of this nutty hybrid.

There’s a mighty painful looking wipeout around 1:46… Enjoy!

Old News but Good News: Powers of Three
This film really is amazing. If you haven’t seen it, watch it on MSW.
Eddie Aikau 2009 Last Heat
The amount of time between set waves is, like, stunning. This is nutty and awesome.
