Well, winter tried. You even wore that nice warm coat a couple of times in solidarity. But hey, if temperatures are about to hit the eighties, it’s probably time to make some January-weekend beach plans. Here’s everything you need, with apologies to the rest of the country.
It’s a sturdy pair of mid-length Orlebar Brown trunks completely covered in a photo of some old-timers charging a massive wave. Congratulations. Your entire pelvis just got 72% more scenic.
It’s kind of great being a little chilly on the sand when huddled up by a blazing Dockweiler bonfire with some people you like... and with one of these Oaxacan serapes hand-woven from merino wool. It’s the hand-woven part that really gets them.
Your Breakwater session went late and you need to meet a date at Piccolo. Quick: to your pocket, where this colorful little comb made from old surf fins will manage any pressing hair issues. Great. Now remember the 20-minute rule.
Self Edge made a bunch of gold-plated, shatterproof sunglasses to emulate a pair Hunter S. Thompson wore to Cozumel. If you’d like to emulate him in other ways, that’s on you.
This is a thing you wear on your wrist that records the length of your surf sessions and rides, while notifying you of your wave speed and the conditions at your favorite spots. It won’t make you a better surfer. Actually, it might make you a better surfer.
