Cold Skin Warm Hearts








http://youtu.be/PQ3dYGCOHsc

some days....when the waves are small
its hard to beat the cold
but reality is smile
because tomorrow could be colder
so greet the warmth
however it comes to you

some photos to make you cold...and a song to make you warm

Dumbasses, Dreams and Schemes




carribean favorite (so far)


recognize some of these? The waves have been firing...
but since being spoiled this summer we've been dying to get back into some warm water barrels
hmmmm.....trip time grind


What the State is saying...
"Trestles and its surrounding breaks have obviously had a big impact on surfing in California, which is why the Surfrider Foundation is pushing for the stretch of coastline from Uppers to San Onofre to be added to the National Register of Historic Places. Joining the registry would mean additional protection for the area against any detrimental change, be it a toll road or some other form of imposing development.

The county is against adding Trestles to the list, and the Chairman of the Orange County Board of Supervisors, John Moorlach, has been vocal in his opposition. “I’m having a tough time swallowing the request to make Trestles a member of this effort to preserve national treasures,” says Moorlach on his blog. “I’m a fan of the Surfrider Foundation, but my cynical side tells me the application is a cute move to avert a connection with the I-5 Freeway and the toll road system.”
What we're saying is...
hey...we're not going to act like living here for a month now gives us the insight to know what California knows is best. But shit...do you really need another freeway. Let the people have fun and explore and enjoy their natural resources...government...you've taken enough and Dorybeach will gladly do anything to help this treasure get preserved. 


its hard not to lose speed @ a fat backside point. Looks can be deceiving, and sometimes with your back turned its easy to get lost. Wilko seems to have no trouble getting to the top...and beyond!

Real Talk Wednesday

HIT THE ROAD
with being a new place...
all dorybeach can know to a certain point
is that there is swell. 
The best place, time, tide, wind and direction can be researched, 
but a little R+D is needed to really dial in the new surroundings.
Our face is super sunburned, 10+ hours in the water, my wetties are wet, and noodles arms are here

The Days were off...
The search was on!
And this was what we found...

Rockaway Sandy

a very well done and personalized experience documentary of what's going on/ went on @ Rockaway Beach in NY
It may not be the newest flashiest surf footage, 
but to see these peoples positivity and energy through tragedy, 
their perseverence is mesmerizing. 
Lets not forget today to be sure to keep our own heads up, 
but most important, 
maybe support somebody who needs it. 

The NE will rise again

(+did you recognize any off that early footage from one of the finer productions in recent EC history Picaresque?)

Never forget a tragedy, never fail to recognize strength

Road Trip/Hump Day


dont waste a day. If there isn't what you want dangling waiting for you out the front door
well than go find it. Inspired Tuesday night, Wednesday was an adventure. 


squalls on the horizon 

never one to be dissatisfied with a surf
the constant churning of the North Pacific left us wanting a little more than the swell thats been reaching home
even if it has been delicious coditions for golden hour around here in San Clemente
(Tuesday nights was particularly epic. )

so waking up early with the sun, the car got packed with as many boards as necassary and a suit for every condition
who knows were we'll end up
but we were out to find something
preperation.

found. barrels
found. open spaces
found. exactly what we were looking for. 

found. crowds that were way ahead of us. so we skipped this one
stay tuned for thoughts on surf traffic coming soon
returning home and running down to see the dribblers reaching in
the right decision was made. 
whenever you hang up two suits, its a lucky day

jay "bird" this ones for you!

and these are just becuase...well i mean shit...it's still the middle of the work week
need something to get ya by!
