Wednesday Battle – the fundamentals of style…….

Well, last weeks battle was between a new school contest and an old school contest.  The old school contest too the votes and we have to admit here at eBodyboarding.com that it looked like a lot more fun! With that said we thought we would do some research and see which rider you think masters the fundamentals of style.  This week we found a great 1992 clip of Mike Stewart from Chris Stroh's epic film "Warped".  He does fundamental manuevers in huge waves with such ease and he makes the ba

Now THAT is “shorebreak”!

Now THAT is

O'ahu photographer Clark Little, brother of big wave legend Brock has been swimming around in crazy places like Waimea Shorebreak and Ke Iki Shorebreak for a long time capturing some ridiculously heavy images.  Here's a couple of recent gems.  Brings a new meaning to the phrase "sand-sucking barrels"!

Morning #2 at the Wedge…

Morning #2 at the Wedge...

Well, due to the crummy conditions here in Southern California, I decided to head back up to the Wedge in Newport Beach to see if that was breaking again.  And, once again the waves weren't that good for any kind of performance bodyboarding, but it did make for another day of big drops and painful looking wipeouts.  There were more photographers and video guys out than riders!  The cold weather and bone crunching closeouts kind of made me NOT feel like surfing, so I just grabbed my crummy lit

This morning at the Wedge….

This morning at the Wedge....

Well, here at eBodyboarding.com you can tell when swell is on the way because usually our phones start ringing a few days before as friends, customers, and team riders all want to hear what the scoop is and what everyone is doing. And, of course that was the case for this first good sized south swell of the year. Excitement was in the air and everyone has been buzzing due to every forecasters hype on our first real south swell of the year. Unfortunately the weather is not quite the best, but

Wednesday Battle…..

Well, our first battle has ended and by a narrow margin of ust one vote, Pierre Louis Costes has won.  What has he won?  Nothing, just the respect of the people voting for him! Well, this week we're gonna go to the California contest scene.  Some people love contests, while others hate them, but what's for sure is that they sure have changed over the years.  So, get ready to blast back to 1996 for the Bud Pro Trestles bodyboarding event and then get ready to fast forward 14 years to the 2

Beans at the Wedge again…..

Beans at the Wedge again.....

eBodyboarding team rider and Morey boogie master John "Beans" Porzuczek is getting ready for summertime at the Wedge.  Mokitom got a few shots of him last week.  With all the upcoming south swell you can look for a few more video clips and photo's.  He's been wearing a pretty sick custom made, logoless, grey wetsuit for the past year, so if you see anyone out there in grey it's probably him.....or it's someone copying his style.  Here's Beans on a good one.....
