This morning, I went out to shoot with Braeden Kopec, Ryan Huckabee, Robbie Goodwin, Alex Hobbs, and Skylar. It was flat and horrible when I first arrived at the pier. Just dumpy, closeout, small waves. As the morning progressed, the waves got so much better! The waves were only about thigh high, but on some of the sets, the sections were so rampy (Can’t think of a better word to describe it). Below are some of the Shots I took. Enjoy 🙂

Alex with this fancy move. He said it was a old skateboard trick and he wanted to try it out

The winds were offshore for most of the session, so that left some hollow barrels. Here is Braeden pulling into one

This dude came out into the water on the south side and went out about 50 feet and came back in. It must’ve been too cold without a wetsuit for him

Braeden with another air also
Ryan going for another air, but from a different and much cooler perspective
Robbie showing off his Ripcurl sticker
Braeden throwing some water
I went out to the break with my camera and no waterhousing to get a better perspective. Risking it all! I think it was worth it
Ryan with the barrel of the day!
He is taller than 6ft
Next week looks like the waves will finally pick up! More blogs to come and thanks for reading!
