We surfed quite a heavy wave this past weekend swell. I’ll be getting the real action shots out for editorial and ads, but in the mean time, you can preview the best bails we have to offer.

What could have been my session of the year in Ocean City ended in the back of an ambulance with a broken collarbone. The morning started off flawless just Matt Rinck, Keenan, and I swapping barrels off the rocks. As the tide started to drop the sandbar started getting pissed and we all got our fair share of beatings among the select gems still out there. At dead low it was retarded. Freight training double ups from the jetty to the pipe with no exit what so ever. We continued to surf, racing through sections as long as we…

Today is the day! The entire grudge match contingent has waited all month to surf in the annual event that puts Jersey’s best surfers against each other, and despite the lack of an epic swell we have enough surf allowing everyone to let loose. All the boys are on the beach in their cars watching heats and getting gnarly. Meanwhile the Surfers Candy crew is here capturing all the activity for those of you who can’t be here to witness it yourself. Keep coming back today as we will be updating as much as we can… NOTE: You’ll manually…

Oh surfboard art.
First there was the late 80′s and early 90′s where it was typical to wait an extra 6 months for a custom board to arrive so the shaper could send it out to have a radical custom airbrush put on.

Through most of the past decade, the trend was to…

After all the years I’ve been a sponsored surfer, nothing beats that feeling you get when the UPS man pulls up at the front door and drops off some fresh gear. Weather it be a box of ERGO clothes, a grip of NPX wetties or the holy grail , a box of freshly shaped shortboards, you still just gotta smile. We’ve been in the worst pattern of waves and I’ve been starring at the new boards for weeks and wondering if these wetsuits are ever going to get a use in them before we need hoods again. So today…
There hasn’t been surf for at least two weeks here in beautiful New Jersey and I’m beginning to go crazy! I have been occupying my time by going to class and training with Jamie, Zack, Gesler, and a few groms over at Oceanside with Dave Klemic. Hopefully we can put all of this hard work to use for the Grudge Match as soon as we get some waves. This year is going to be a real battle now that everyone is in great shape. COME ON WAVES! Here are a few pics I was overlooking while reminiscing a time…
