I met Ryan at Cardiff Reef around 2009. He had just shaped his longboard by himself and surfed it really well. A few years after, I visited Ryan’s shaping room and found out his passion for surfing and shaping. Four years later, Ryan was riding an asymmetrical longboard (for backside) at Swami’s. I was blown away by his creative approach for backside nose riding. Currently, Ryan is still constantly pushing the his limits of surfing and shaping. (Tatsuo Takei)
Two incredible days of surfing (07/08 January) with Jeremy Flores the "GRAV MASTER" and friends.
"Glad to go back to the water with my friends after my back injury. The conditions were downright magical and the atmosphere in the water really cool. It was pure pleasure to see the new generation of locals bombing. Two superb days in the Landes as we like them! " - Jeremy Flores

Jamie O’Brien making the most of one of those ‘not epic’ days on the North Shore with John John and some bald bloke.
The Weird Waves Crew wanted to start off season 2 with a bang. They may have taken the idea a little too literally by traveling to Alaska to potentially ride a wave made from falling ice, which makes a deafening crack with each piece of glacier that breaks off to form a wave... no biggie. In this episode they also check out what the locals on the Turnagain Arm are calling, ‘America’s longest wave.’ Saddle up, partners! Season Two of Weird Waves is coming in hot! Well… cold, actually.
