Who missed the wave of the weekend? I’ve never seen so many groms in the winter like this past Saturday. We’re getting some sick swells this January, just watch the forecast and expect surprises.

Join the Locals crew On Thursday, January 1st for the annual NYD dip! The Locals crew will meet in the shop at 9:30, then head down to the dip together. See you there!

This Saturday returns to Rockaway to provide adaptive surf lessons to adults, children and veterans! We are looking for experienced surfers to help volunteer— please send us a DM if you’re interested! We also need plenty of people supporting from the beach, some come cheer on these awesome surfers 🤙 Starts at 9am!
