Radical Honesty. Windblown, small and mushy, falls and all.

HB Invades Newport

While a lot of the pros are out of town, the remainder of the locals crashed 54th street yesterday morning to rip a couple of little peaks.

Huntington Beach 6.0 - Simpo and Flores

Nike 6.0 has taken over Huntington Beach. Hopefully the waves will follow. As for now, it's 2 ft mush. This morning Brett Simpson avoided the crowd by surfing Northside while Jeremy Flores slogged through the denizens on Southside.

The comp starts in 2 days.

The Winch Session

Joey from Radical Winches came down to tow the boys at a few little wedges. The thing is a little hard to time with the waves so the coolest stuff went down on this little punchy left. Everyone got a few, but Carlson just blew up on that thing. And it was nice to finally have some sun!

Beach Party 2010!

It's definately summer in HB. NSSA comp was on Southside so all the locals were crammed in on Norside. I saw more collisions today than I've seen in the past 6 months. Nevertheless, the crew got a few keepers. Ted seemed to pick off the best ones and shred them all the way through. Micah was back in the water for the 2nd time in a month. And junior lifeguards were all through the lineup blocking air sections on every wave.

I'm already looking forward to winter again.

3 Waves Each - Chippa, Navarro, Quinn, Sylvester

The expected south swell hasn't yet arrived but some Aussies were still here to bounce around on what little peaks the NW swell provided. Local talent Ted Navarro and Quinn McCrystal also took advantage.

Running Sandbar

The weather cleared and while the waves were still small, the sandbar started working for about an hour before the wind turned on. Of course 400 people were on it, but the boys still got a few and of course Carlson stomped some massive airs. Just another day south of the pier.

Shedding Slop - Simpo, Peters, McCrystal, Kanoa

The waves were small and crappy yet again. Nevertheless, Brett Simpson, Quinn McCrystal, Derek Peters and Kanoa Igarashi were battling for little racey peaks.

This is what I got in 45 minutes.

Kalani David was also out but I didn't identify him til I was done filming. He was launching a few airs.
