A […]

Hurricane Nicole

We FUCKING scored. Hurricane Nicole was well-predicted for a week’s time.  We stared at the forecast for days and it barely changed–hell, it got better!  We tried to calm down; we ran a heavy risk of over-frothing ourselves and did not want to be too disappointed when SwellInfo fucked us over yet again. However, we […]

Skating With Dubs

Last week we had a chance to go to a local skatepark with team member and good friend Kyle Walsh.  When Kyle “Dubs” isn’t shredding–well he’s always shredding.  During the summer you’ll most likely find him bouncing around from couch to couch up and down the Jersey Shore.
