Surfers in Silhouette

This is T.J. Ridings in Huntington Beach. It was fall, offshore, crystal clear and so fun for about three days. Photo: Jeff Farsai

Angelo Josue' Lozano, Puerto Escondido loc, on one of his first trips to L.A. We scored a really sick one here and he couldn't believe how good the waves were. Photo: Jeff Farsai

When storms, swells and unknowns collide. One of my favorite all time moments. Photo: Jeff Farsai

Eddie Lester, California, make or break. He made this one... Photo: Jeff Farsai

Left: Dillon Perillo in the Mentawi Islands. Dillon shreds, and was a blast to hang with on the trip. (Right) The Hb legend who's name I can't remember. Photo: Jeff Farsai

Travis Karian in Oceanside. This guy rips longboards like they are 5' shortboards. This was also about 10 minutes before we got rained out. (Slide film scan) Photo: Jeff Farsai

Shortly after landing on the Big Island for my first time we were in the water looking for dinner. One of the best trips of my life, thanks to Scott D. Photo: Jeff Farsai

Long walks to secret spots. Photo: Jeff Farsai

Dillon again in the Mentawai Islands. We got skunked out there but the moodyness in the weather is what made for some interesting shots. Photo: Jeff Farsai

Damien Hobgood at Maccas. This was the first time I swam with my big pelican case over reef with far too much equipment. Photo: Jeff Farsai

A giant peaky day at pipe/backdoor. I tried to get a few angles I hadn't seen before, I guess it worked. I just love the simplicity in this one. Photo: Jeff Farsai

I love the face of a big, cold, and mean peak, I call this one Pulse. Photo: Jeff Farsai

Puerto Local Roger Jimenez making this massive break look like a piece of cake. Photo: Jeff Farsai

Mexico, on one of the craziest days of my life. I almost died this day and the photos don't even do it justice. Somewhere around 20'-25' and the current was insane. Photo: Jeff Farsai

Dillon again... another one from that moody trip to Indo. Photo: Jeff Farsai

Michel Flores in San Clemente. Its always worth it to get the sunrise, just make sure you get your coffee too. Photo: Jeff Farsai

My favorite part of the wave, the instant before you get covered. The colors and visual stimulation of the wave at that exact moment are so beautifully intense its almost impossible to photograph or describe. Photo: Jeff Farsai

San Clemente mid day, just wanted to go for a swim, ended up getting a few sick ones. Photo: Jeff Farsai
