Rolling On The Water.

Cowabunga!

We built a bridge on top of troubled water!

Dolphins Doing What Dolphins Do.

There are few things more magical in this world than hundreds of dolphins racing through the wild Monterey Bay on a foggy fall morning. For the last week, a superpod of common dolphins hundreds strong has been racing the Monterey Bay, hot on the tails of billions of baitfish.

Swimming!

A Blast From The Past.

There should be no itinerary. There should be no maps. No plans. No set outline of how your journey will go. A true roadtrip is one that unfolds organically in whatever direction you desire at the time. And that's exactly how Josh Kerr and Damien Hobgood led their recent adventure up the west coast.

Rock And Roll.

The America's Cup has always been a game changer in the world of sailing and the 35th edition of the race is no different.

The Sea Is Not For Sissies.

It can get rough out at sea. Riding upon her is not for the faint of heart or the easily distracted.

Wrecked Wednesday.

The cargo freighter TS Taipei had a bad day......a really bad day.

Moth Man!

Moth Sailing with Champion Chris Rashley. Via Sailing Scuttlebutt

Ghost Ships.

There is nothing more haunting than coming across and mammoth abandon ship. There is something just eerie and surreal about it. In this video I show you some amazing huge ships that are abandoned and left to rot with a brief history on how they came to be wash up on shores around the world.

Reshape!

The typical surfboard is made of toxic foam that doesn’t decompose. “RE” is a film that challenges every surfer to rethink the way they look at beat up, old surfboards and consider the potential backyard shaping has to not only keep foam out of landfills, but also to innovate new designs.

Got An Old Board, Give It To Me. (Repurpose)

Surfers are generally regarded as an “eco-friendly” community, yet we ride boards made of toxic foam that doesn’t decompose. “RE” is a film that challenges every surfer to rethink the way they look at broken surfboards and consider the potential backyard shaping has to not only keep foam out of landfills, but also to innovate new designs.

Friday Follies! (sailing video)

Sometimes things don't go as well as we'd like.

Single handed sailing with hatches open, flying a kite....what could go wrong?...oops!
Where's the marinara sauce? There's a lot of spaghetti in that cockpit.

Sailing From Nordkapp To Stockholm In An Inflatable Catamaran.

Une île.

Young french polynesian rippers Matahi Drollet and Keoni Yan having fun in their paradise. Last May we shot for Bic Sport their full range of surfboards, from longboard to shortboard. Matahi and Keoni, usually pictured in massive days at Teahupoo or in competitions, were both showing their local knowledge smiling all the way on any craft - Quite a nice moment to share.me good result competing all over. Thanks to Ben Thouard: http://benthouard.com Bic Sport : http://www.bicsportsurfboards.com Song: Jacques Brel: Une île Jacques Brel was in love with French Polynesia, he used to live in Marquesas Island.

Rube Goldberg.

Seated kiteboarding in light wind in Goa! This kite-scooter, despite being an amateur-built and somewhat crude and heavy prototype, is a fast, incredibly versatile, easy to operate and amazing sail craft Designed for light wind and flat water conditions it is best powered by any light wind surf kite, the bigger the better.

Hokey smokes, Bullwinkle. There has to be a better way to get out onto the water than on that contraption.

The Great No Place To Sail In America Tour Continues. Requested By Bonnie, Today's Stop Is The Big Apple.

It's ludicrous to suggest New York as a sailing venue. It make absolutely no sense to hold an event in a place that is the media and finacial center of the United States, has hotels, restaurants, shopping, tourists, and a natural ampitheater that can accomidate a few million of your closest friends. What a dumb idea!
