Shaking off the chill from Chile’s icy coast, Laura Coviella is chasing warm, glassy tropical waves that feel like a full-body reset. She shreds—carving crisp lines, threading barrels, and sending it with her own fearless style.
Opening season XL swell at Jaws. Albee Layer getting the wave of the day. And potentially the wave of the winter.
What started off as a really slow day with not too many great waves ended with one of my favorite clips I've filmed ever. Albee paddled out around 3PM and it suddenly seemed to turn on. The wave he caught made my trip.
Super stoked to capture the moment, Slater Neborsky came in clutch handing me his drone controller while he filmed land angle and when my drone was swapping batteries. Tucker Wooding.

A 14 minute tropical roast-up with Harry Bryant. A buffet of truly ridiculous surfing served on long, glistening walls. From buttery Fiji to oily Indonesia to a hidden oriental rivermouth that’s absolutely dripping in duck fat. Bring a bib, tuck in.
Asher Pacey and Victor Bernardo surf like two ends of the same beautifully balanced spectrum. Pacey moves with an almost meditative softness—lean, unhurried, and deeply in tune with the rhythm of the wave—turning every ride into something that feels hand-crafted. Bernardo, meanwhile, brings a spark of electricity: sharp lines, sudden bursts of speed, and a kind of playful precision that makes even difficult sections look inviting. When they surf together, their contrasting energies—Asher’s quiet glide and Victor’s crisp dynamism—create a kind of dialogue on the water, showing how different approaches can celebrate the same wave in entirely unique ways. Hit the link and enjoy the slide.

A dust-filled, adrenaline-charged surf trip in the heart of the Australian desert Three surfers.
Nine thousand kilometers. Three weeks in the middle of nowhere. Between endless roads, raw humour, and danger lurking in the background, DESERT RATS tells the story of a wild mission between friends at the edge of the world, in a land as stunning as it is hostile where great white sharks constantly remind you that you’re only a passing guest.
In DESERT RATS, William Aliotti, one of the world’s best free surfers—teams up with Pierre Caley, former lifeguard in Australia and big-wave surfer, and Matt Hollman, his longtime friend, Australian lifeguard and surfer. Their goal: hunt down slabs—the waves that detonate right on the reef, brutal and unpredictable…
Between dramatic landscapes, failed sessions, nearby shark attacks, and a strong sense of brotherhood, the trip unfolds like a road movie that’s both hilarious and chaotic. And because the ocean never plays by your rules, the perfect swell finally arrives… just after William leaves. DESERT RATS is surfing in its rawest form: endless waiting, real risk, wild beauty, freedom, and unfiltered friendship.
Some of the UK’s very best surf talent heads out to meet a bitter winter’s day, trading warmth for the reward of powerful, pumping waves. Days like this are rare—those magic moments when the swell, wind, and tide all line up just right—so when they arrive, we chase them with everything we’ve got.
