SurfBoard Racks

Unless you live somewhere with shallow razor sharp reefs, chances are that most of the damage to your surfboards occurs during transportation and storage.
But the intrepid surfer with DIY instincts can do much to remove the chance of out of the water dings by building a set of storage racks to have a secure and stable place to keep your boards out of the way in between sessions.

The above examples are just a few variations we’ve found and used. You’re only limited by the space you have available and your imagination. Most of the above pictures are made with 3/4″ dowels and leftover wood from other home projects. The plywood rack looked like a good option for apartments or dorms where you might not be able to drill/screw into the walls and is freestanding and folds flat.

Racks can be built with just about any type of material and we’ve found that whatever you have already laying around you garage or basement usually works fine. Here we have some photos of different styles of board racks. There’s no better way to extend the life of your equipment than taking good care of it. So if you haven’t already, get out your saw and drill and build yourself some

Surfing in One of the World's Oldest Cities

Cadiz is located in Southern Spain in Andalusia. 
It is a small town with old buildings on the edge of the Atlantic Ocean. Some people believe that Hercules built this town. Most of the tourists come to Cadiz to see the Roma ruins, the impressive Cathedral and to know more about its interesting history.

I felt like I had found a pearl in the edge of the old town because it turns out that the beautiful beaches in Cadiz are good for surfing throughout the year even in the winter. In the afternoon, I walked along Santa Maria Del Mar beach and I met some of the Cadiz surfing community, Alberto Lopez Rodriguez and Alberto Gallardo.

According to them, you can surf anytime throughout the year but the best waves come around March until April. During wintertime in December waves at Del mar beach are around 1-2 metres in height and surfers needs to wear full body suits. There is another nice beach that is good for surfing as well in Los Canos. When I asked Alberto, where is the surf spot that he would most like to visit in the world? He responded with ‘Indonesia’. That’s because he often watches surf videos

with Indonesia as the setting. He said that his favourite surfer is Mick Fanning. I was lucky enough to spend my afternoon with the Cadiz surfing community who were really friendly and welcoming. Our conversation finished up with the stunning sunset as golden light reflected in the Atlantic Ocean.

Another Surfing Spots in Indonesia

Primitive Beauty and Perfect Barrels Collide at Grajagan

Indonesia is an archipelago with world’s best surf spots. One of the bests is Plengkung beach at Banyuwangi, East Java. Nicknamed by surfers as the ‘gland’ or G-Land. The word of ‘G’ in “G-Land derives from Grajagan, the name of the bay where the huge waves were found at the south of Banyuwangi. The beach is located on the edge of Alas Purwo national park, virgin tropical land forest rich in exotic flora and fauna—the ideal scenic background to your surfing odyssey.

Primitive Beauty and Perfect Barrels Collide at Grajagan

A very long, world-class, barreling left hand reef/point break breaks along the east side of Grajagan Bay. It has long been considered one of the world’s best left hand waves. The correct name of the point upon which the main wave breaks is “Plengkung.” The wave becomes shallower and more critical the further down the point one rides the wave. It is one of the most consistently rideable waves in the world in season, with offshore winds and often plentiful swell between the months of, roughly, mid April to mid October. The G-Land surf break has been divided up into several sections. The first, at the top of the point, is called “Kongs,” which breaks up to several hundred metres in length, and can hold quite large sizes— from about 2 to 12 feet+, Hawaiian scale. 

It is not usually a barrel, nor genuinely world-class, but more a series of takeoff zones with some long wall sections, although it can also barrel on occasions. This section picks up a lot of swell, and is rarely less than 3 feet, and can be a saviour when the rest of the point is too small. This wave can sometimes link up with the next section called “Moneytrees.” Moneytrees works from about 2 to 10 feet (Hawaiian scale, or about 4 to 20 feet wave faces), usually breaking over several hundred metres, and is a long, testing, barreling, world-class wave. 

The barrels become more critical the lower the tide and the larger the swell. Moneytrees may also occasionally link up with the next section called “Speedies,” with an outside takeoff section between the two called “Launching Pads.” “Launching Pads” can catch the surfer offguard, as it can break a significant way out to sea in larger swells

“Speedies” is the heaviest wave at G-Land, but can be a perfect, very round barrel for several hundred metres, rideable from about 2 to 8 feet+ (Hawaiian scale). It usually needs larger swells, and low tide can be very dangerous. Most severe injuries at G-Land have occurred at “Speedies.”

Other Nearby Surf Breaks There are a few other, smaller waves further down and within the bay, which include “Chickens,” “20/20,” “Tiger Tracks” and a few unnamed others. 

These waves generally only work on larger swells, but are surprisingly good alternatives when the main point is big. All of these waves can barrel in the right conditions, which generally require higher tides. There are also some right hand waves on the other side of the peninsula at G-Land, but they are fickle, requiring large swells, and no wind or off-season winds. 

Another right hand wave is situated about a one-hour or more drive, and boat, west of G-Land, which has been featured in Indonesian surf magazines, and dubbed as “Reverse G.” It is apparently a quality, long, right hand wave (the ‘reverse’ of G-Land) but which is very difficult to get to, requiring some boat access, and furthermore only works in off-season winds (about October to April). Despite its popularity in the surfing community, accomodation around Grajagan remains good value with cheap losmen and basic cottages dotted about the place. This is one of the only places in all of Java that has such excellent surfing. In season, Grajagan probably has the most consistently rideable waves in the world. The surf here though is demanding and only recommended for experienced or professional surfers.

Surfing at Echo Beach – Hard to find – Hard to forget

Echo Beach

Surfing at Echo Beach – Hard to find – Hard to forget

 It is one of the last all-natural beaches in Bali. But now, the first work is in process. It is a project by the Indonesian government to keep the land behind the beaches safe and clean, because in high tide the water destroys all the plants on the shores. So they build stonewalls in order to keep the water away and safe. Except this wall, the Echo Beach is all-natural. The black sand is there since the first people discovered the beach, and also the stones everywhere were natural in their position. 

Maybe that is why the Echo Beach is such a good place to surf. The rocks and stones in the water make the water breaks on and keeps the sand away, so it is clear and you have a better view on your surrounding. Moreover, in Echo Beach you can go surfing in high tide as well as in low tide, so everybody can surf there at anytime. There are always good waves! As the beach is such a spot for surfer, many restaurants build their buildings along the beach, but compared to other beaches, the Echo Beach is free from mass tourism, it seems rather to be an insider tip or just a meeting point for surfers from all over the world. Once a year, in Echo Beach there is a big surf contest, the “Oakley Pro” surf contest, but there are several small contests just for local surfers held by the Canggu Surf Community (CSC).

Next to the surf contests, the Surf Community also cares for the beach, they organize meetings in which they clean the beach and teach the new surf students to surf and how to handle the beach to keep it healthy.   As one of the first restaurants, the Echo Beach House opened his doors just in front of the beach on the top of some small rocks. This restaurant also gave its name to the beach, as the actual name of the beach is Pantai Batu Mejan. It is located next to the temple that belongs to the community of Canggu. The temple is called Pura Batu Mejan, also build on rocks just in front of the ocean. For the local villagers, it is very important as they are economically poor but rich in their believes. Many local people have to work in two jobs in order to feed their families; one example, a person has to work as security guard during night and in a beach bar during day.
All in all, Echo Beach is one of the most beautiful places in Bali, even as it is one of the last all natural beaches, and especially for surfers from all over the world or just to see the fantastic sunset from one of the restaurants or beach bars there. So Echo Beach is worth a visit, for sure!

Indonesian Female Surfer : Yuko Anabela

Indonesian Female Surfer : Yuko Anabela 

at @2013 -> 15-year-old Yukojati Anabela from Pelabuhan Ratu in West Java Indonesia has made history as the first ever Indonesian surfer to be a recipient of the International Surfing Association’s 2013 Individual Scholarship Program, receiving $1,000 USD and the honor of representing her country as an ISA Ambassador. Bela, as her friends call her, is one of the 50 junior surfers (13 girls and 37 boys) from 25 different countries to be awarded this scholarship in 2013.

In the award letter sent to Bela by ISA President Fernando Aguerre, he wrote “…it is my honor to congratulate you on being selected as a recipient of the 2013 ISA Individual Scholarship. As a 2013 ISA Scholarship Recipient, you are an ISA Ambassador, and you will forever represent the ISA in your country as a dedicated surfer and student who works hard and achieves success in and out of the water. To be an ISA Ambassador is a great honor, and your effort in submitting a heartfelt and well-deserving application speaks to your dedication to both your surfing and education.”

When asked to describe her feelings upon receiving the scholarship, Bela replied, “Of course I was surprised! When I found out I was home alone and I screamed with joy. I couldn’t wait till my mom came home so that I could tell her. I right away called Om Diki and told him how I won, and he was stoked too!” Diki Zulfikar is one of the senior surfers in Cimaja and the leader of the Sukabumi Surfing Association. She went on to add, “I am extremely happy, I never knew I could ever win something like an ISA scholarship. I am quite proud of winning this opportunity and in a way it has also made me more proud of my surfing.” How did her parents react to the news? My parents were very shocked at first, they couldn’t believe it either. They are extremely happy for me and they have even grown more supportive of my surfing, which makes me very happy!” What makes this even more special is the fact that there are not many girl surfers in Indonesia, especially not many Muslim girl surfers.

When asked if she had any challenges along the way she replied, “To be honest there are a few challenges, I see it as a part of our culture here so I respect it, as long as I am good to others and present no harm I don’t see why a Muslim girl can’t surf. People generally tell me not to surf because I will get black or surfer girls are too sexy or that I will turn into a big tomboy. I don’t mind what they say as I love surfing and I will keep surfing because I also believe it makes you a very humble person.” And how did Bela get inspired to start surfing? “I first saw Andre Julian, one of our young local surfers, surf his heat in one of the grommet contests. I though WOW! He is such a great surfer, so from there I was determined to learn to surf! I bugged him to teach me and he did, I’m still very grateful for his help.”

 Bela has been surfing now for close to five years at her home break of Cimaja in West Java, also the home of Java’s most well known pro surfer and past Indonesian surfing champion Dede Suryana. When Bela applied to the scholarship program, one of the requirements was that she had to create a budget plan to describe how she would use the $1,000 scholarship money. At the time she listed among other things surf trips, surf contests, school and parents as most important. Now that she has received the money, she says, “I would really love to buy a new surfboard, go on a surf trip to somewhere different, travel to an upcoming contest, and pay for my schooling.”

Regarding her future goals, she says, “For my surfing goals I would really love to win more contests and improve my skills, so hopefully one day I could get a sponsor and may turn it into a lifetime career. For my life goals, I would like to be a good person. I have always been into my basketball and surfing, so I hope one day I can be a successful athlete.” We wish Bela the best in her future plans, and hope that more Indonesian girls and women will be inspired by her example and join in the sport of surfing, and become future recipients of the ISA Individual Scholarship Program as well.

Perfect Wave Surfing Film

This time we will consider a film with a background in the surfing world about the love of surfing. Deep within every surfer is a heart hungry for adventure, yearning be free, to break away and let go. Seeking purity and truth, they have a willingness to risk it all, to push on whatever the cost, overcoming every obstacle and risking everything in the ultimate pursuit of the perfect wave.

 This is Ian McCormack's story. This is our own story. "The Perfect Wave" 
is the true story of Ian McCormack who grew up surfing the waters of New Zealand. Wanting to dive deeper, Ian sets out on a journey with his best friend that will change his life as they chase the perfect wave.Travelling through Australia, Southeast Asia, and Africa, they surf incredible breaks and adventure, looking for the force that drives the world. When Ian meets Annabel, a striking and kindred soul, he abandons his friend on a new quest of love and ecstasy. Jealousy overtakes their love. Broken by his own soul, Ian chases her to an island paradise to win her back. (C) Official Site

The Perfect wave is a LOVE STORY, with four key pillars, a young mans love for surfing, adventure, a mothers love for her son, a young man falling in love for the first time, Gods love. The film takes the audience on a journey, as our hero searches for his 'perfect wave'. The journey has many unexpected turns, and twists, as our hero falls in-love and loses his way, but as fate would have it, jealousy ensues, and seeking to reconcile our hero travels to Mauritius where one event changes his life forever.

Ian McCormack's

He finds the perfect life in this surfer's heaven until a diving accident, where he is stung by deadly box jellyfish, leaves him fighting for his life and forcing him to choose between the truth of life and permanent death.

The First first official surf contest Pacific Coast Surfriding Championship, 1928

When Corona del Mar triumphed as Southern California surf center, a recorded history there with the creation Championship surfriding Pacific Coast. It all started on July 16, 1928 when a Long Beach Press-Telegram announced:
“SURFBOARD CLUB WILL HOLD TITLE MEET AT HARBOR.”
The article reads: "The Corona Del Mar surfboard Club, which claims to be the type of organization in the world, will hold championship tournament riding a surfboard on the beach Corona Del Mar at the entrance to Newport Harbor on Sunday, August 5th

News Paper Ad for The first PCSRC

The first PCSRC involved both paddling and wave-riding. Entrants lined up with their boards on the beach, and at the sound of a firing pistol ran into the water, paddled 500 yards out to a buoy, turned for shore, and rode a wave to a finish marker on the beach. Surfers were eliminated over the course of a few rounds. The contest had been well-promoted, and several hundred spectators were on hand, along with the local press corps, including a newsreel team.

Start of The first PCSRC

Blake later recalled that the surf was about head-high. Along with Kahanamoku, Blake had been touted as the man to watch, and at the start of the race he ran to the water's edge with a 15-foot, 115-pound semihollow paddleboard, then surprised everyone by turning back to get his 9'6" wave-riding board. He then placed the smaller board atop the deck of his paddleboard and set out after the other contestants, already 50 yards distant. Paddling his sandwiched boards past the entire field, Blake discarded the paddleboard after rounding the buoy, and moved into the surf zone on his 9'6" to wait for a wave. Some of the other surfers caught up—Gerald Vultee, soon to become one of the nation's top aircraft designers, in fact rode a wave before Blake, but angled to the left and lost momentum—but Blake was first to the beach. Later that day he also won the 440-yard paddleboard race. Other attractions in the 1928 event included canoe tilting and an ocean lifesaving demonstration.

Medal from the 1932 PCSRC

The results of the contest were as follows: 

Quarter-mile surfboard race, 

1. won by Tom Blake, L.A.A.C.; 
2. Gerard Vultee, Corona Del Mar; 
3. Dennie Williams, Corona Del Mar. 

Paddling race was won by 

1. Tom Blake; 
2.  second, Dennie Williams.”
