  We did it again. This time with some help. On Monday night of October the 15th, Brendan and I had gotten word that the magazines had finished printing. I was going out to Vegas the coming week for work and then up to State College the next weekend–we realized that a proper release party […]

October Delivers Again

  An archetypal Jersey swell; Hurricane Michael waves were in an out in less than 48 hours. It was pretty good though… And there were tubes–not a bad Friday in October.   The first frightening, Falltime winds blew offshore and into head high swell that decreased to nearly half the size by nightfall.

Sunday Shredding on (Possibly) Our Final Beach Day

  When waves are fun on Sundays in Jersey, you can expect the crowds. It’s something you just can’t fight–especially when it’s 80 degrees, sunny, and offshore.

Old Rolls Equal Found Photos

  Black and White, 35mm film evokes an awesome feeling. Faces are brighter, shadows are darker, bright days get a makeover, and cold, dark settings receive the framing they deserve. In this specific case, three rolls of 36 images had been used across various time periods, locations, and seasons. Seeing this collection of photos side […]

Music for Monday Morning

  Yea, Mondays suck. It’s pretty much inevitable… Unless, you’re Alex Krenkel and you have a full day off to play Fortnite and chat up Tinder ladies. Not all of us are this fortunate, so you may need a little more motivation to open your eyes and be nice to assholes you hate.   Not […]

Bobby Martinez “Unrelenting Relevance”

  As a goofyfooter, I’ve always tried (and failed) to emulate Bobby Martinez on his backhand. His style his mechanical and explosive, all with a consistent flow that seems to match any wave type.   However, I think the days of me tucking my ears into my fitted cap are over (not to say I […]

Photo Gallery: 2018 ALO Longboard Classic

    This was a sick event with an amazing turnout. A day full of smiles, slides, hot sun, refreshing water, beers, pizza, and fish tacos. And, of course, the RSM creators and contributors were there (trying to) sell magazines and get the word out in general.   A huge thanks to Alliance for a […]
