For once, the surf world did not converge on South Beach to surf this past week. Reason being that those without past experience didn’t even see it coming. South Beach started the day out with about thigh to waist high surf, but by 11am the tide had begun to push in and funnel in the […]
Early bird gets the worm on most of these South Florida refraction swell events. Luckily the warm confines of bed didn’t keep us from braving the cold for a couple of waves this morning, although waking up on time was an entirely different story. Early wake up, late arrival I got to the beach around […]
It’s admittedly been quite a while since the last post, and there’s been a lot that’s gone on in between. New art, plenty of surf, and new side ventures all presenting themselves along the way. But anyways, we’re here for waves, not the in-between stuff (aka regular life). Winter Storm Diego in South Florida Winter […]
As Florence continues to strengthen as a Major category 4 hurricane & barrels towards the east coast, it leaves many people preparing for the worst, and some of us surfers hoping for the best.

Before that comes however, we are still dealing with a couple of cold fronts that are […]
Not on it, Will there be a Refraction Swell? Honestly I hadn’t really been paying attention to the surf for the past 4 days. A trip down to Key West will do that to you. Monday evening it looked like a fun little longboard wave was coming in, but the tide was rising so I […]
Winter Storm Riley Delivers EPIC SURF Winter Storm Riley delivered a week’s worth of amazing surf to South Florida. We had 4 days of overhead waves, with the best of those days being double overhead. Even after that we still had 3-4 days of residual swell for those who weren’t noodle armed from the best […]
Will Wake Up for Waves Dawn came early this morning. After a 5 hour rock climbing session yesterday my body was a little tired, but after missing the morning offshore winds yesterday, there’s no way I was missing today. After getting word from a friend that Delray was a little all over the place this […]
