Needed Relief




Raise your hand if you are getting tired, and bored, with small, dribbling lefts in SD.
Wow, that's a lot of hands.

Here are a few shots of Kirk Waddell in the Central Coast; and it's a right! So maybe it was taken earlier in the year, but we all need to remember what a real wave looks like. And have something to look forward to.
Mother Nature: please send some our way.

Sincerely,
Semi-Depressed in San Diego

"He Walk's On Water"

Mike 9:2

Found this old magazine in the stacks. Classic shot of Mike Myers in trim at his home reef in La Jolla. Mike has surfed Dennis' boards for a long time and was one of Murphy's top team riders when Iron Cross was blowing up.

Summer Solstice

The first day of summer. It comes with mixed emotions. Warmer water, sunnier days, trunks, vests and bikinis. vs. loads of tourists on the beach and folks clogging up the local spots. Not our best season here in SD for surfing, it will however provide for some fun sessions. Here's hoping this summer's show is more significant than last summers weak offerings. Summer time also brings visions of adventure and the possible reality of a surf trip and vacation. Think warm water, south swells and open line-ups with your friends. Lako! Vamanos! Aloha!........
