I swam out with my camera yesterday at Tourmoline in San Diego to grab a few pictures of Corky Cullen on his new Cabrinha gear. Even though it was an average San Diego day (light wind, not much surf), Corky was still killing it.
Everything here done with a Canon 50D and Tokina 10-17 in an SPL housing.
On Friday, I headed down to the Ocean Beach Pier in San Diego to take a few pictures of the large waves. It was high tide when I got there and waves were hitting the bottom of the pier. I shot from the pier for a few minutes before the lifeguards chased everyone off and closed it down.
This is the newer of two computer controlled shaping machines at the Lost Surfboard factory in San Clemente, California. This thing turns out more than 20 boards per day. We will be posting video from this visit on thekiteboarder.com very soon.
So, if you have watched the news at all this week, you might have heard about the fires that we’ve been having down here. It all started with an unusually strong Santa Ana wind that started last weekend. At the last count I heard, over 1,600 homes had been destroyed.
This disaster has been terrible, but all the smoke in the air has been making for some surreal sunsets. Best wishes to everyone who has been impacted by the fires.
