The Patagonia's have an added internal neck gasket that eliminates flushing. Some people find this extra gasket to be uncomfortable. Similar to what O'Neill does with the Psycho II but more...
I got a 5/4 Flash Bomb last winter and was impressed. Was definitely more flexible than my old Xcel 5/4 Infiniti (not Drylock). Comfortable and warm, although last winter here in DE/MD wasn't as cold...
Definitely agree that there is something strange about it. Not sure about the machine itself, it looks like it could be useful for keeping in surf shape while out of the water.
But the whole way...
I looked into the Isurus suits last year after Surfline ran a feature on them. Came very close, had even contacted them for sizing, but in the end just couldn’t spend that much on a wetsuit.
In...
Steep and Cheap.com, a sister site of Whiskey Militia, was unloading Amp 5/4's and 6/4's all summer long. The 5/4's were priced at $99 plus shipping. I decided that for $99, what the heck, my Xcel...
You won't be the only one out...check out the teaser from the movie "Unsalted."

There's a dedicated and truly hard core crew out on the Great Lakes. ...
Just took the plunge on a hooded 5/4/3 Rip Curl Flashbomb. Got it from Jacks online - they sent me a 10% coupon in the summer, and I was shocked that they let it apply to a brand new wetsuit.

AI was rideable Saturday morning. On the sloppy side, as the winds were hammering it even at first light (dark thirty), but there were some fun walls every now and then. Definitely more size than...
South Haven, Michigan.
Jim, a fantastic post. So much excellent and honest advice. The board advice is great. I've got a 6'8" but its a hybrid quad. I never would have touched it without some expert encouragement, but...
I'm 51, my best surf buddy is 50. We've been surfing together for 30+ years and are both still on boards in the mid-6' range.
It gets harder and easier at the same time as you age. As in, I...
That was Sunday, April 17...quite a day in OC. All positive thoughts for tomorrow, and some tasty leftovers on Saturday.
If you're moving near any of the Great Lakes you might want to take it with you. You can definitely still surf, and the community out there has some of the most stoked and friendliest surfers you'll...
Micah put the Green Man back in the forecast on the new page!!!:D
Fantastic. Thank you!!!
Surfing and Trans World - aimed at the under 25 crowd (not just my opinion - get their press package and that's what they claim). That's how these mags pitch themselves to advertisers. Pro surfer...
I have multiple scroll bars in both Safari and Firefox. Obviously I'm on Mac.
Easier said than done for us old guys! :)
Eh, I don't know Micah. I think your icons - the Green Man and the the little wave, were, pardon the pun, truly "iconic."
With a single glance I got the picture as to what was going on, or what...
I can't second this enough. We were in Playa Grande last July and the first couple of days the swell angle was dead straight on, conditions were a mess. We could have gone south into Tamarindo...
Thanks, got one!!!
Definitely a book to savor, Matt. Rensin did an epic job putting it together. A complicated story about a complicated individual. Still not a Dora fan, but I came away thinking. About Dora and...
I swear by this. I think Micah still has it in the Swell Info store.

Sorta like this?:D
Nags Head, August 2010. And it wasn't even a tropical swell.

There was a pretty significant and impressive Swell Info thread about Fisherman's Island a couple of months ago. Included were photos and first hand accounts from guys who have surfed there. Use...
