Australia has a lot of good waves. Big, barreling slabs. Long points, endless beach breaks, lefts, rights, ramps, tubes, and everything in between. Beautiful beaches, beautiful scenery, big cities, and incredible wilderness. It’s the surfing nation – there’s something for everyone.

Then there’s the Unites States. East Coast hurricane swells. California gold. Offshore monster spots, and mile upon mile of rugged coastline. Huge, glittering cities, built on the edges of perfect beaches with perfect waves.

We love them both. Whether you’re drinking Budweiser or Fosters (no one drinks Fosters), we salute your waves and everything that comes with them.
