Desperate times call for desperate measures. Luckily for Jordy Smith and Josh Kerr, having jet skis at your disposal is just one of the perks of being one of the world’s best pro surfers. The two recently took to doing step-offs near the Orange County-San Diego County line to get some practice in during the week of small waves leading up to the Hurley Pro at Trestles. Lensman Matt Kleiner, who is currently working on a biopic film with Kerrzy, shot and edited this little piece, “Lake Pacific,” claiming, “It’s been so bad up here!”

Both Jordy and Josh have boosted their way into round 3 of the Hurley Pro, which is expected to recommence Wednesday under a new southerly pulse of swell.
