Punta de Lobos. Sección el Mirador. A huge restoration project of the native by the @fundacionpuntadelobos is in process and it's all just left around the corner from @hotelalaia. #soloizquierdas

Sometimes it's just left around the corner. #soloizquierdas

Ramon Navarro ( @surfnavarro ) rips down the line on an @fcdsurfboards 9'8 gun at his home break Punta de Lobos. I chose this photo from the swell to share because it demonstrates how far the level of progression has come since he started surfing big Lobos. You can clearly see the wave feathering far down the line and starting to break. Good boards, jetskis with experienced drivers for rescue and solid teamwork. If he makes the section, awesome, if he doesn't he has a plan. That's what's called being a 'risk technician'. We are big wave surfers, we take risks. Having a plan if it doesn't work out the way we want it to helps us push the sport by allowing us to return and do it again. @pichilemusurfcity #soloizquierdas. So, did he make the section?

'Dis guy Tevita Gukilau (@_veet_ ) just won the trials at #cloudbreak for a spot into the @wsl WCT event. I got a good feeling about this year, da brada is in sync!. By the way, what happened @chebula_ ?? . @deheeckeren @wolfofwailoaloa #vanillafluff

The hunt for that perfect combination of snow and surf will take us to some pretty far out locations. @forrestshearer enjoying the ride. @jeffpunkrockhoke

Nelscott reef breaks far, far from shore. It's cold, sharky and has large tide swings which cause the current to rip north or south. The lineup shifts with the tide, making it difficult to be in the right spot. I'm always impressed with the local crew that charge the place on a regular basis . This January I got to share some waves with them and luckily found myself in the right spot for this left. Most of the lefts closeout in the end but the right one can be a zinger of a ride. Testing the waters on my new @fcdsurfboards 11'0 quad. @lookouttolookin #pnw

Thanks @carvemag for running a feature on our #Iceland snow/surf trip with @forrestshearer @jeremyjones and @bryaniguchi The first image @andrew_miller took in the article is of me sliding towards the surf on a 164 #flyfisk @gentemstick chopstick. (Splitboard). Forrest put together an amazing edit of the trip as part of a three segment series #horizonliners If your in Bend , Oregon this Friday they will be showing the films at the @patagonia store at 7pm to warm up for the @mtbachelor 'Gerry Big Wave Challenge'

Out the rivermouth and through the shorepound #nelscottreef detonates in its own world far from shore. @deheeckeren #pnwonderland @fcdsurfboards @patagonia_surf

We parked the #laandyacht next to this beautiful dark green river that lead out to the sea. From here we could access the surf by the Jetski. Big boards strapped to the sled. @deheeckeren #pnw
