“June Gloom usually drives me inland to enjoy the sunny backcountry, but on this day a a nice south swell and glassy conditions gave us something to stick around for,” says Morgan Maassen. Photo: Maassen

"Costa Rica is one of my favorite places in the world,” says Bryce Lowe-White. “This is one of many brilliant sunsets I witnessed at Playa Hermosa, where a small surf village was built on the sand where the rain forest meets the beach. Everyone surfs multiple times a day because it’s one of the most consistent beachbreaks in Costa Rica.” Photo: Lowe-White

“On a mellow, cold winter day at Sandspit, two guys are seen heading around the slippery breakwater to jump into position,” says Morgan Maassen. “Despite the higher tide, they made it with ease, but when the surf is cranking, it is an incredibly dangerous and stupid thing to do.” Photo: Maassen

“This was one of those days that stayed glassy all day. Joel had called me around 2pm to let me know how fun the waves looked at Cardiff, but I was swamped editing images from another shoot,” says Todd Glaser. “Luckily, by the time I got down there Joel was going back out for his third session along with Ryan Burch, Eric Snortum, and the rest of the crew. The waves were perfect for longboarding and they were all sliding around.” Photo: Glaser
