Hang onto your hats folks, this one is going to be a doozie. With one of the biggest purple blobs, since Laird's "Millennium Wave", heading directly at the Billabong Pro Tahiti we're in for quite a treat. Watch all of the action as it unfolds live: http://billabongpro.com/tahiti11/live-gb/

TRIBUTE TO ANDY IRONS

ANDY IRONS - Images by A-Frame Media

The surf world lost a true champion this week. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the entire Iron’s family and all of Andy’s friends from around the world.
Peace be with you Andy. You will not be forgotten.

THIRSTY?

Our favorite Surfer Girl, Monyca Byrne-Wickey, is being featured in the latest Gatorade outdoor campaign. The image purchased was shot by A-Frame ace Jason Kenworthy. The campaign can be seen nationwide on billboards and most major sports stadiums. We’re looking forward to working on the next phase of this awesome campaign and will keep you posted as it develops. Between Nike and Gatorade, Jason has quickly established himself as one of the the “surf guys” making an impact in the commercial world. Now that’s G!

Jason Kenworthy Bags the Elusive "Girls" Cover

In the 50 years of its publication Surfer Magazine has only felt moved to place a female surfer on their cover a mere 3 times. I don't think anyone blames them for that but if I were a pro surfer I'd be lining up to go on Worthy's next trip. Jason's cover ratio looks like Kobe’s shooting percentage so if you’ve got the moves you might want to think about getting in front of Mr. Kenworthy’s lens for a shot at the most coveted cover in the biz.
