Fish outta water

By: Janos Palko


Southern California is a pretty unique place. Yes there's traffic, Yes its shallow, Yes there are assholes everywhere, but when you can take a step back, you must admit it's pretty cool. Not too many places can you surf good waves, find an empty skatepark, and shoot up to the mountain to ride, all in the same day. Rusty assembled a trio of pros from each sport to do some ultimate boarding. Josh Kerr, Joey Brezinski, and Romain De Marchi give it a go. In case you were wondering, Joey Brezinski (pro skater, pictured here on the right) really sucks at surfing.

"Record" for Largest Wave Ever Ridden Trivializes Big-Wave Surfing

A return to old-school measuring techniques is in order

Consider two representations of two very big waves, below. The first is a photograph of Mike Parsons at Cortes Bank. The second is a video of Garrett McNamara near Nazare, Portugal. Now take out some measuring tape and make the distance of one foot between your hands. That's the amount, according to the Billabong XXL committee, that McNamara's wave is bigger than Parsons's wave.
