10 Images That Remind Me what it Means to be a Surfer

Obviously this cross-stepping little gem is a must. I love the angle, perspective, and framing on this image. @dankuras

The familiar silhouettes contribute to the awesome mood and palette in this shot. Photo: @ryanstruck

This is a perspective that all surfers know well. The photographer is from Norway, so this image isn’t from/on a surf break, but it evokes a feeling that all surfers can relate to. Photo: @sussdocker

When I initially looked at this image, I zoomed in to see if anybody was taking off on that little beach break peak. @tessamlove

I love the abstract nature of this photo. It takes a little while for the image to come into view, which is what makes it so awesome. There’s something very cool about the simplicity in Sean’s illustrations as well—they’re single black-line style and a lot of them are surf-themed. Photo: @seanwspellman

I absolutely love Joni’s work—she keeps it old school and analog. Seeing a picture of the local Montauk crew makes it even better. Photo: @jstersurf

The waiting game… wet suits and micro-waves… or maybe you just can’t see the outside reef pumping! Photo: @katglorius

One of the best surfing couples of all time, Mikey and Lisa DeTemple, in the perfect northeast surfing-and-in-love moment. That’s some thick rubber they've got going on, which makes the image even more New York. Photo: @lisadetemple

This image makes me think of classic California road trippin’ (ok, let’s not think about the parking nightmare.). Imagine that thing loaded up with boards and friends, travelling up and down the coast. Plus, it makes me think of a special surfer girl I know that loves converted buses. Photo: @loumora

I really love pig-style longboards, so when I saw this, it evoked thoughts of a pig in water, warm waves and exotic destinations. Photo: @saltandstonepottery
