As some of you may know and for those of you who are just reading this for the first time, with much sadness I report that our friend Eric "Sprocky" Osland passed away on Friday the 27th of February. I don't know all the details but he was suffering from pneumonia and other complications t...

Scott, So sorry to hear about your loss. Your brother seemed like a truly remarkable man in so many ways. Thoughtful, spiritual ,charitable and full of surf stoke. I never met him but always looked forward to reading his posts on what design ideas he had or what his latest project was. Those boards ...

Wow!

What a well done video. It's great to see someone come back with all that passion after so many years.

Some nice pocket turns and the improvement is growing.

Good on ya Ocean Trends!

A great contest indeed! The Kneelo Gods smiled upon us again with great weather and very clean surfable conditions. It was so great to see everyone! Congrats to all the competitors and winners. Jack again showing why he's tops. A Big THANK YOU to Joe and Amanda Taylor! The amount of work they did on...

Ed and all, I would like to chime in as well. In my experience and depending upon where you surf, this can have a big influence on board type and length. Overall volume and thickness & or thinness are huge factors too. Most obvious are a riders height, weight and body type. I'm 5'10", 205pd...

Scott, I have had many issues including constant water on the knee. I had like seven draings over a two year period. As for the meniscus, my knee really started hurting about two years ago. I had an MRI and the Dr. confirmed that I did have a tear. He suggested that if I could try rehab and live wit...

I had my surgery about eight weeks ago. Getting better each week. I can say, my tear got so painful and irritating that I could not sleep at night. Now I can at least sleep and that nagging pain has gone away. My doctor gave me a series of photos of the before and after results. It's clear that he c...

Today was my first real day back in the water on the kneeboard. I had surgery about eight weeks ago for a meniscus tear. I have been reluctant to push it at this point as the knee still feels real tight and painful if I put too much pressure on it in the kneeling position. The waves look real fun an...

Ya Billy! It's about time they posted a shot. Glad it was you in the tube!

I must say that the event at the Cove was well done and so much fun. I was really impressed with how well Big Fred, Carl and all the others can perfectly smoke meat while keeping it butter tender at the same time. Carl's Tri tip was sublime and Big Fred's ribs were perfectly done and so tasty. Butle...

I attended the meeting last night along with Joe & Amanda Taylor and a good 100+ all packed into the Newport Beach Civic center meeting room. There were news crews, people of all walks of life and age groups. Head representatives from the city fire department, lifeguards, parks & recreation ...
