Big Wave Surfing
Jun-24-2010 By admin
The legendary paddle-in surf spot known as Mavericks breaks one-half mile off of the coast of Pillar Point in Half Moon Bay, Calif. Surfers use their bare hands to paddle into this fierce wave, which consistently reaches heights of 20 feet during the winter months. Its speed and steepness in addition to its size make Mavericks an exhilarating ride, but also a dangerous one. Cold water, strong currents and sharp rocks are some of the hazards surfers face at Mavericks.

Mexican Pipeline in Puerto Escondido
May-21-2010 By admin
MEXICAN PIPELINE ROARS
This is a beautifully shot video! Enjoy.
Details:
On Monday, June 19th, a day prior to the kick off of the Rip Curl Pro Search WCT “Somewhere in Mexico”, a massive swell rocked Puerto Escondido. Beach side cafes were wiped out and water flooded the streets of Playa Zicatela. Two teams of tow-in surfers (Scott Chandler, Chuck Patterson, Carlos ‘Coco’ Nogales, Ken ‘Skindog’ Collins, Chad Jackson) went out at first light in what many are calling the biggest Mexican Pipeline in years. Veteran director Dave Ogle (Puerto Underground 4) was kind enough to share his ’secret’ filming spots so that David Palmer could capture this epic day on film.
