Traveler Mag/ Puerto Rico

Me, Shane and our friend Chuck grom (far left) all went to Puerto Rico last Febuary. We got pretty good waves the whole time. Then we showed up to Jobo's and this random guy came up to us and asked if we wanted to do a photoshoot for Traveler Mag. So this is what they came up with in the recent July issue.

This past Wednesday I got VIP access from my good buddy Seth at Globe to their world premiere of the new surf film Year Zero. The theme was post apocalypse and the venue was insane, crashed cars, broken boards and girls in leather waving fire sticks.. needless to say it was a good time, and the movie had some mind blowing surfing. Make sure you check it out and watch for Yadin Nicol's part. Until then heres a few photos from the premiere

Reef/Sweetwater Pro/Am

The Reef/Sweetwater Pro/ Am came to Wrightsville Beach this past weekend right after Tyler Faulkner parted ways with long time sponsor Matix and DVS. Tyler without stickers on his board won 5 heats straight, blowing up in the 25 minute final to claim the under 14 title. I won 4 heats in my 15&over division, got the high score of the first day at a 9.4 and then surfed my semi catching two waves and flopping around(: . Darsha who has ridden for sweetwater for as long as anyone can remember called them and asked to reserve a spot in the womens division and they didn't even put her in... nice job sweetwater.

Edit #1

This was our first go at filming ourselves and none of us have ever tried editing before so ignore the few shaky sections but otherwise we're all pretty happy with the outcome. So watch and enjoy while we continue working towards another edit.

Okay so a lot of people have been asking for us to post a video, and we are working on one right now but in the meantime here is some footage of me in P.R. so Shane and Tyler will stop nagging me to post something.

Benton Sampson is one of the best up and coming photographers out of N.C. right now and Tyler, Darsha and I have all been shooting with him here and there the past few months. He has a really unique perspective that makes for some interesting pictures.Yesterday we had the first decent swell that we've had in a long time, so me and Benton messed around some and heres a few throwaways to check out..
