LOG DAYZ

some mystery long period swell graced our shores for an evening or two recently. this was an unbelieveable session in the evening with dennis granigan on some classic logging waves. big shout out to alan bruce who filmed for an hour while watching these waves!



summertime...

summertime shred at nantasket, which has been pumping out punchy peaks on a consistent basis. water's warm and the surf's good, get on it!

lumpy bumps

some big lumpy windchop lumps got some cleanup inside a protected cove for a quick session.

oceanic oddities

one of the many joys of surfing is finding some odd waves to have fun on. case in point; this session way up north with tim healy, steve hassett and chad bruce on some weird and wacky wedges.

luminate 2.0

after years of plotting, luminate owner dan hassett has finally gone ahead and opened a shop in hull. come check it out on june 2nd for the grand opening, and it's going to be a great summer with luminate in on the fun in hull! get stoked!

log jam postponed again!

PICKING ARBITRARY DATES JUST CLEARLY ISN’T WORKING That being the case … stay tuned for a new approach // new date. Format is officially shifted to ON CALL for the next solid system."
unfortunately, this time due to a rather excess amount of windchop, the log jam has been postponed indefinately until there is a good swell. no matter the date, it's still going to be rad, so check it out for upsates at http://thelogjam.tumblr.com/

* (THIS KID)----->

finally returns home for an extended period of time. got a chance to surf with him on his second day back in fun RI waves. looking forward to shredding with tim all summer and into next year, look out for him in the water!

legends live forever

after chatting with the returned californian tim healy, we remembered this clip from last summer. classic.

9 days...

             9 days of waist- chest high surf, and it's still coming! hats off to one of the most fun weeks ever!                                               

piggin' out

a test surf on Dan Hassett's 7'2" pig, which happens to be the ugliest and most fun board that was ever created.

the northeast renaissance.

despite conditions that looked like this for most of the contest

the new england contingency put out a ridiculous showing at the ESA northeast regionals this past weekend. this contest is the qualifier for the ESA easterns, which feature the best competitive surfers in the entire East Coast. to illustrate the point:

Chuck Barend (RI): 1st senior mens, 1st masters longboard

Ana Barend (RI): 1st ladies

Kai Nichols (NH): 5th boys, 4th menehune longboard, 2nd open bodyboard

Lenny Nichols (NH): 3rd legends, 4th legends longboard

Liam O'Regan (RI): 1st open shortboard, 2nd boys, 3rd menehune longboard, winner of "ironman" award

Chad Bruce (MA): 1st junior mens longboard, 2nd open shortboard, 7th junior mens

the list could continue on and on with the amount of new englanders who made finals or placed highly. the northeast surfers are becoming a force to be reckoned with, the east coast should take notice!
