Oh Canada

Hockey and Surfing........ what's the connection? I never thought about it until this summer. Hockey players glide and skate across frozen H2O and we glide on moving H2O. Water....... and the ability to balance on it.

The Canadians invaded San Diego recently. The Roy brothers from Calgary spent a few weeks down in San Diego learning how to surf under the tutelage of Murphy Surfboards happy ambassador Chris Miller. Either surfing at one of the Del Mar reefs, or getting pounded at Torrey Pines, they left San Diego stoked and knowing how to surf.

Hey Hoser: Take Off, Eh....

Here's Andre and Pierre Roy, no relation to Patrick (hockey fans get it), with Andre's new 7'-6" Enzo tri-fin. These guys are in San Diego for 2 weeks and more stoked than most people we ever come across. In just the learning stages, they definitely have the right attitude and energy. Hailing from Calgary - via scattered roots in Quebec - they constantly remind me of how great, and unique, the San Diego coastline really is. And, how lucky we are to call it home.
