International Surf Day
- We are organizing our annual BBQ again this weekend (unless there is rain on which case we will postpone it until June 27). Every year we try to do something for the surfing community, and this year we want to raise awareness to climate change, and have put into place a program for Montreal surfers to go carbon neutral. So come down and get a hot dog, offset your carbon footprint, and enter to win a surfboard and other cool goodies.

Julien Fillion surfs Jaws
- That's right - Montreal Surfer Julien Fillion spent the better part of this year training for Jaws at the riverwave Maverics in Montreal, getting ready for his Hawaii trip. We were supposed to go together, but unfortunately business needs kept me here. So he's been there surfing and having a ball. Then today... he posted these pictures of his big wipeout on Jaws.
He said this: "On smaller days at Peahi, one part of the training is to take off deeper, and cutback high on the wave... On this wave I cu way to high behind the peak, then the wave jacket up and it was already too late.
Wiping out on smaller days (still pretty big waves) is an very important part of the big wave training."

New Chopper SUP
- The goal is to make an SUP which makes GETTING OUT through the surf easier, yet to have a performance board once on the wave. As any shaper will tell you, when it comes to boards and design, there are no free lunches. Invariably you rob Pete to pay Paul, but it's that game of considered compromises that we play. What am I getting for what I'm giving up. The goal of the Chopper is to create a board that paddles out well, and rides like a shortboard once in the wave...
