World's best.
We are, collectively, 100,000 days in to the World Surf League’s fourth stop which happens to be an extremely user-friendly point break in El Salvador. Fun to mind surf, as it were. Difficult to appreciate for an organization that once touted “world’s best surfers, world’s best waves.”
Whilst the hot action may be severely wanting, sports-washing going ham etc., the comfortable point is a happy place for perpetually mediocre surfers, like you, but also downright lousy surfers, like me.
I’ve had the good fortune to surf some fine points in my day. Yemen, Kelly Slater’s Surf Ranch, Southern Mexico, or as cosplayer and World Surf League announcer Mitchell Saladbar pronounces it, “Sunburn Mehico.
Well.
You’ll be happy to learn how it should look courtesy of Channel Islands here. Featured are the surfers you actually want to watch including, but not limited to, Michael February, Britt Merrick, an Australian, Dane Reynolds and Bobby Martinez.
Martinez, I’d argue at this point (no pun intended), is the world’s most interesting surfer.
Tell me I’m wrong.
Suck it, San Clemente.

viva la Bobby…
Jsus, Bobby is still flaring.
Bobby’s point break backside is the best I have ever witnessed. He is one of SB’s finest.
When you’re not reading Beach Grit, I highly highly recommend the piece on Bobby in the new TSJ, 34.2.
Began this day watching the circus brought to you by WSL… saved this day and my heart by reading this piece in an actual print magazine about surfing. About a surfer.
Dane Reynolds looks different…
Bobby’s backside surfing is next to none. Always a pleasure to watch his surfing
Where can I find said debut?
That was rather enjoyable. I love me some Mikey Feb. And how good does Bobby look? He’s got the old-school power that I really miss in the newer crop.
Dane “can do no wrong” Reynolds
even at the all you can eat buffet
It’s sore. But not as sore as your mum. Ha!
the hills are filled w/ knuckleheads…lookin forward to Fleet Week?
SoCal surfers love them some Jesus!
For real, then there is that Joseph Smith loving crew in the Leo area
The guy that founded Mormonism while he was starving, dehydrated and hallucinating in the desert?
That’s the one. Same guy had 40 wives, one of which was 14… Jared from Subway style

Kids on fire since he got karened by Chas.
RingCon!
