Postcard from Cali flatness

Hello Friends, Apologies for the long radio silence. I’ll be back to daily reports in a week or so, but for now, a postcard from Southern California where the swell has died out in the last couple days – not that it was particularly interesting up this way, but at least it could be surfed. […]

No waves where I am…

Haven’t seen a beach in nearly a week. And the last one was the coast of Wales where the tide was so low we had to walk a kilometre just to get to the water’s edge. And there were no waves whatsoever. Since then been doing lots of moving and not much picture taking. From […]
