Billabong Rio Pro Back On Today After a 5 Day Lay Period

The Billabong Rio Pro is back on again today at Barra da Tijuca!  After a 5 day lay period with no waves...it's now a bit gnarly out there - rainy and stormy - but the waves have size and there are some punchy sections.  As you can see, Josh Kerr launched a big air off one of those sections.

Surf Trip Souvenirs: Scars and Machetes

By Andrew Sachs

When most people go on a trip, they like to bring back some sort of souvenir to remember their trip by.  Postcards and t-shirts are pretty standard for regular vacations and trips.  I try to find something a little more unique to help me remember my trip, and that won't shrink in the wash...here's some of what I've been able to collect over the years:

Casino Chips - Puerto Rico.  On my first surf trip to Puerto Rico we stayed at the Rincon Surf and Board with a group of guys.  Great place to stay with a group, caught some good waves at Domes and Marias and enjoyed the local tacos.  One evening we were looking for something to do and we heard about a casino down in Mayaguez, so we packed into two cars and made the trip south.  The Mayaguez Resort and Casino was light on the "resort" side of things but had the "casino" part down pretty good.  So good that I left with my wallet a lot lighter that night, but did manage to keep a $1 chip off the table.  A few years later I ended up staying in Aguadilla on my trip to Puerto Rico.  Turns out they built a new hotel and added a casino there, too - the Ocean Casino - which is a modern looking casino and a lot less gritty than the one in Mayaguez.  A good night spinning the roulette wheel and I was able to afford a few more rum punches for the rest of my trip.
