“Something that has become more apparent to me this season than any before is how quickly dynamics can change, I guess in any sport, but especially ours. The one image that sticks out to me most this season is Jordy’s half-shaka to Italo in the locker room in El Salvador with Italo’s nod in return. Italo had just hung the yellow jersey on his board after Jordy had defeated him and soon Jordy will have taken it from him. At that point neither expected that to be the case. I’ll never take for granted the privilege it is to attempt capturing those moments that define the fascinating world of competitive surfing.” @_inyourshadow
When every day is take your daughter to work day and she learns to roll over in the corner of a media office in Peru.
Thanks @isasurfing for giving Dylan such a warm welcome into the family.
Hard to believe it’s been over a decade since most of this took place. It was pretty emotional hearing @theoceanparty songs live again during Franks’ birthday celebrations.
15 years of @finbox , 11 years of Coalchella, 10 years of @frankswildyearsrecordbar , RIP @blk_gld_
It’s been a big few weeks for @sammylowe01 . In between graduating high school and taking on the HSC, Sammy and @zacheywoodvisuals premiered their epic edit Marked Absent to a sell-out crowd at home and have now sent it out into the world. All of this right before the reigning U/18 National Junior Champion heads off to Peru for the @isasurfing World Juniors.
Living around the corner from Sammy allowed me to live vicariously during Dylan’s early days. Missing out on a whole lot of surf was made all the better when I could spend my time watching him tear it apart while she slept in the carrier.
Thankfully I was also able to slip out and capture a couple moments along the way.
