Surfing the net contains no sharks, no rocks, no wipe outs, no drowning and no risks of hitting your head on your surfboard. But, surfing the internet is not entirely a secure experience. As a rule of thumb, never make any online purchases or access your banking account when online on a public hotspot. Anyone [...]
I just saw YouTube.com, a website which allows people to place videos online for free. It uses tags similar to how flickr and technorati does it. At first, I was more interested in seeing surfing, soccer and magic videos, then I found myself watching silly teenage fights and would-be music artists posting their performances. Not [...]
Surfing Mavericks is the ultimate battle between man and nature. Man usually gets a whipping as well as a whopping. No one can never tame the wild and the powerful waves of nature. At certain times, you trust up your hands and give up.
The Maverick Surf Contest is officially on tomorrow as contest director Jeff Clark has called the contest to start Tuesday, February 8, at 8:00am. A solid ground swell is heading towards Northern California. Mavericks is expecting 20-30 foot faces with a slight sideshore wind.
I saw a spike in the wave height reports on the internet last night. The bouys were showing 8.1 feet at 13 seconds. So, I’ve decided to go out today and take off the dust off my surfboard literally. The board of choice, my Pope Bisect 9′4″ Harbour Banana. Why use the longboard? Well, it [...]
It looks like I now have full rights in claiming back my former team, the Santa Cruz Surfers from the BCFL league. This past season, I took a sabbatical from playing Madden football league online due to travel committments. A new owner picked up my team at the start of the season, but has [...]
Last year’s hurricane Ivan produced a wave which topped at 91 feet according to an article from AP. Yea, right! It’s probably true if that’s what the buoy says. I saw the movie “Perfect Storm” and there were some big waves in that movie. I also heard stories of rogue waves knocking off containers from [...]
I just came back from my surf trip to Costa Rica and Nicaragua. What a trip! I left early Tuesday morning May 24th and spent the whole day travelling. The first thing I noticed at the airport was, a couple had Balikbayan boxes. Presumably lost? The Philippine Airlines counter is right next door. I just [...]
I got my plane ticket to Costa Rica the other day. I’m scheduled to leave May 24th very early morning. 1:30am! I’m gearing up for the big surf trip. I bought a rashguard for sun protection since I could not find my old one. I’m also bringing one stick of tropical surf wax for my [...]
