Tips for Night Surfing | Catching Waves at Night Point Break Style

By Rick Bickerstaff We've all seen the epic (and totally false) night surf scene in Point Break, right? Despite Hollywood's mistaken depiction of night surfing, there are a lot of benefits to it, including fewer people and awakened instincts due to the lack of sight. I've made a few mistakes on the nocturnal way though, so I thought I'd share some tips for going on a night surf.

Hurricane Cristobal Waves | Surfing Ocean City, NJ

About 2 weeks ago, at the same time that Hurricane Marie was hitting the West Coast, over on the east coast we were getting our own swell from Hurricane Cristobal.

All the forecasts were calling for clean waves with size, so on Thursday morning, August 28, I got up at 5:00 am so I could hit Ocean City, New Jersey at first light.

When I paddled out near 7th Street off the boardwalk there were already plenty of guys out, and the waves were firing.  Clean conditions with head high waves and plus size sets!

I got my fill, connecting on some nice long lefthand waves (I'm goofyfoot).  When I got out I snapped a few pictures on my phone of the scene.  If you look closely you can see guys getting barreled in 2 of these pictures.

Thanks to Hurricane Marie | Waves from the Wedge, Malibu and More

By Rick Bickerstaff

Hurricane Marie swept Southern California last week, pumping in the biggest swells it's received in twenty years. And fortunately for me and my friends, it hit Los Angeles and Ventura counties the hardest. You might have seen pictures or videos at the Wedge in Newport Beach, just an hour or so south of Los Angeles. Massive 20-30 foot waves abounded here at the ultra-dangerous beach break. Mostly body-boarders populated this spot, as the break is so shallow it's practically suicide for surfers. Still, many made it out, and more watched.

Wakeboard Boat Towers | Big Air Cuda Wakeboard Tower

We've been working at StoreYourBoard to expand our selection of wakeboard boat towers in addition to the wakeboard tower racks we've been known for.  We now have a great selection of boat towers, including towers from Big Air, Skylon, Krypt and FlyHigh.

One customer favorite boat tower is the Big Air Cuda Wakeboard Tower.  The Big Air Cuda wakeboard tower is Big Air's premier, radical forward swept design wakeboard tower. This wakeboard tower is on par with any OEM tower you would get from the major companies like Malibu, Moomba, and Centurion but without the inflated price! This rack has all the goodies such as a high polish finish, universal mounts, ultra-rigid frame, and swiveling rope head. 

Spelunking Gear | What You Need to Explore Caves

by: Lauren Fry 

When exploring nearby wilderness areas, you are not limited to climbing or hiking up the mountain. Some of the greatest climbs in the country are hidden in caves. Whether you call it caving or spelunking, it's the exploration of natural cave systems and usually is far underground, with limited to no light.
