Careful with that fetch, Eugene...

This is the time of the year I miss the East Coast the most. Love those tropical swells and warm water. With "E" storms in the Atlantic and Pacific (Emily and Eugene) the US is in a swell sandwich. Here's what the Pacific side of the bread looks like up at the US Open as Eugene's fetch whipped some hurricane swell at Socal. Too bad the water temp dropped 14 degrees over the last week, which now sits at a balmy 56.

While Nikeland was in $ull force in HB - IR was busy motorboating his way through the crowd. Surf is dead: Bob Hurley will forever be know to me as the Man who Sold the World.

I agree 100%, especially the motorboating part. Bob Hurley did let the devil in, but I blame the parents for exploiting their kids while trying to live out their failed dreams, compromising the innocence and purity of the art form. Brings me to a frowny face.
