this trip turned out to be just me & the seahorse. we’ve both come to realize, that everyone else we attempt to recruit, always ‘has to do something’ that in reality- could totally be avoided. not our fault, nor problem.. LAAAAATE. to give you a quick idea of went down when we were down > my clutch burnt out completely.. leaving me to grind gears shifting with two hands and full force, the entire trip- dirt roads and all. epic. We did the usual, socorro the first nights and then played it by surf (not ‘by ear’, cause that just wouldn’t make sense) We met a couple of rad dudes the very first night, same ages pretty much- a mid twenties, and a 30 yr old. We sat around and talked about trips and shrooms, while they all drank, i blazed my noggin off. The next morning, the surf was fun- glassy, five foot perfection, with just the seahorse, that dude sean, and myself. They bailed after that session, of course, due to responsibilities…GAY. The seahorse and i entertained ourselves with epic tunes (dead, jefferson airplane, doors, BÖC, guess who, etc.) crabbing, clamming, sitting, smoking, eating, and wandering. During one of our afternoon wanders, we came across a dirt road, leading us to a secret spot…God, epic…EPIC. no one around, perfect peak, and NO WIND AT 3:30pm…STRAIGHT GLASS. The seahorse was right at home in all the seaweed and sealife that layed beneath the surface (scariest shit ever dude, no joke…wayyyy too many animals and creature creations down there..) after we surfed that wave for 3 hours, and the next two days, we headed towards cabras. We got there and it was perfect weather, just the wave wasn’t working too well. We hunted yukka and created a fire comparable to that in the sprout credits… pretty fucking awesome. woke up the next day to lack of working waves, and left town. On our way out, i found this little point gem that i shredded for a bit (the green shifted photos) it was perfect for that board man, the water temp was perfect, and i was alone.. the seahorse and i both concluded, best mexico trip yet. you should change your life and join one :)

as i was exiting the 101 into santa barbara, i pulled up behind this extreme g-ride.. mexican blanket over the seat, and all. i took a few photos with my point and shoot as we were in motion, and wasn’t really stoked at all. that is, until i opened the image in photoshop and read the bus destination in the background… holy jesus, most appropriate caption ever- ‘1 for the Westside’.

as you can see, i’ve been thriving off of typical, chiché, film type bullshit lately.. i’m sure i’ll get over this soon, but until then- here is a shot of a telephone pole and tree, with an intense film flare- i know, right? super incredibly innovative, thank you.
