"Surfing is California's state sport. And while no one… no-one… controls the ocean, it looks like she's delivered," says Newsom in message to surf fans.
Two years ago, you may remember, beaches were closed, as was all commerce, and people were locked inside their hovels with threat of jail and wildly punitive fines if they tried to get a little sand between their toes, over a virus that had leaked out of a US-funded lab in China.
San Clemente’s shaper to the stars, Matt Biolos, who shuttered his biz at the behest of California’s extreme-left governor Gavin Newsom, made regular mention of Newsom’s “communist” bona fides in a series of posts.

Now, following a promo video to excite fans for Finals Day at Biolos’ home break Lowers from Newsom, and perhaps a little sore his client Carissa Moore was shafted for her sixth world title, “Bear Jew” Biolos has, again, shucked all politesse.
“I think you all know this better than I do. Surfing is California’s state sport. And while no one… no-one… controls the ocean, it looks like she’s delivered,” says Newsom, apparently unaware he’s burying himself under a tsunami of irony.
Agree? No?
And do you remember those dark days of yore or have you, like me, pushed ’em all out of your head?

Rather politicians back surfing than not. Biolos is still pissed about the early handling of the pandemic?
Just mad he couldn’t ride his e bike down the hill to surf Trestles those days. Communist or Fascist hmm, we’re they not on opposite sides at one time when did they align? Too many fumes Matty.

sounds like a fun party
Lol Gavin’s a neolib through and through, there isn’t a commie bone in that dudes body. And before you “iPhone 100 million Venezuela”, just remember how fucking fun Covid was. I surfed every damn day in empty lineups, the bakos stayed in their shitpit and the poly kooks all stayed in LA or the bay.
Bio los sounds like a fucking donkey, calling the same dude a fascist and a commie. Comparing GUIDELINES (which none of us adhered to) to red russia and bitching about how all the beaches were closed….were they though? I don’t remember anyone stop surfing.
Whatever, mayhem sucks, I digress
Haha, in Australia we could surf at our nearest break during lockdowns, suck eggs yanks.
Biolos is just mad cuz he can’t get a reservation at the French Laundry.
Huntington never really closed the beaches-just the parking lots. Those “dark days” were glorious for those of us who knew where to park, catching day after day of empty HB Cliffs.
I slowly started seeing some more determined surfers from beaches that were actually closed by lifeguard & gun toting cops. I could tell b/c they were on boards made in LA or SD Counties–Oak Foils, Christensons, etc…
I surfed more b/c I was paranoid that HB would close the beaches for real, but they never did & essentially stuck Newsome a middle finger.
Thanks HB!!
If this is communism, I’d love to see how all these spoiled brats would do in North Korea.
Gavin is a great leader and anyone who thinks they have some “right”to do the selfish, self-indulgent sport of riding waves while questions about a pandemic were unknown is a ashhole and idiot. Bravo, Gavin and Matt, you’re an extremeist ding dong.
Keep drinking the kool aid buddy lmao 😂😆😁
During those dark days, up in extremely liberal San Francisco, the beaches were never closed.
He’s welcome to his feelings about Newsom’s policies, and I can certainly appreciate chafing against needlessly restrictive rules, but commies and fascists are mutually exclusive. Polar opposites. Neither one of them just means “big government that I don’t like”. One is inherently left-wing and the other right-wing. You’d think an enthusiast of criticizing the government would at least care enough to get the terminology right.
not enough canadian bacon!
“Dole DID IT!” Bob…?
the gov is no friend to the farmers…but he is very fond of his wine (and his orchards)…calling him a hypocrite is being way too kind…WINO!

Dude drunk posting again?
thought I wiped the slate clean last night…my finger prints are nowhere to be seen…still ultimate searching, tho…
And so now, on my Sunday morning, I have to see Newsome’s cartoonish visage and a political rant? We misanthropes look to find relief from such crap on this site. And I have to wipe the coffee off my computer screen again.
easy, W…he may be an occasional BG viewer…NOT!
