Surfing Pipe In Hawaii From An Angle You've Never Seen

Pipeline From Above



Using a GoPro camera attached to a remote controlled quadcopter Eric Sterman captured video of the worlds best surfers surfing pipeline this Winter.   This angle is perfect for checking out the how Pipe breaks and where the surfers are dropping in.  You also get a pretty good view of the famous reef that is just a few feet under the surface.  Make da drop brah! More vids here.


Huge Waves at Teahupoo in Tahiti



The first big swell of the year hits Teahupoo Tahiti and surfers go big.  Some thick barrels and some sketchy wipeouts.  Not for your weekend warrior.


The Billabong XXL Surfing Awards Video





The Billabong XXL Awards are coming up and over the last year we scored some huge surf.  There are some familiar faces in the running; Greg Long, Shane Dorian, Dave Wassel, Reef McIntosh, Danny Fuller  and Shawn Dollar.  The Billabong XXL Awards are always a good time and a great reason for the surf community to get together and celebrate.  My money is on one of the bombs that came through at cloud break...


Music Monday: The Dirty Heads "Spread Too Thin"



The Dirty Heads are from So Cal and have been jammin' for years now.  Recently radio stations have finally taken notice and their song Spread To Thin has been getting a ton of play. Grab Spread Too Thin here.

The Snowboard Surfboard By Signal Snowboards (21 Pics)




California snowboard company Signal Snowboards got weird and decided to mash up a hybrid surfboard/snowboard.  It looks a little funky but with Rob Machado test piloting the board in the surf the "thing" actually looked pretty solid.  Up at Baldface Lodge in Canada it laid down some decent tracks in the pow pow. Check the vid as further evidence.

Huge Surf At Teahupoo Shot With The Phantom Camera (6 Pics)


Eddie would go but I wouldn't.  Holy shit! Teahupoo is macking. When the lip of the wave is as thick as the wave is high that's where I draw the line.  Give me 6 foot Trestles any day.  Great snuff surf video though.

Some of 2011's worst Pipe wipeouts.  Big drops, bumps, bad timing, and pro's getting axed by lips.  Enjoy!

The Surf Bike By Deus Customs


The next time you're in Bali swing by the Deus Customs new showroom and check out their fresh surf bike.  Traveling around Bali or California can be a sketchy undertaking especially when trying to make it to the beach.  Congested roadways and over privileged trust-funders riding in blind spot ridden over-sized SUV's are plentiful... in CA anyway.  So the masterminds at Deus Customs have come up with a convenient means to get you and your board to the beach in a timely manner that saves gas and allots you the excitement of bobbing and weaving through traffic on your way to that perfect surf sesh at uncrowded Lowers.

Quisilver's Surf Team Video: Moments



Are you stuck in a cubicle all day?  Throw some headphones on and watch Quiksilver's surf team vid Moments to pass the time.  I suggest going outside afterwards or you may start to get pissed that a few ridiculously lucky people get to play in the ocean for a living while your ass gets paunchier staring at Excel spreadsheets for 8 hours a day.
