The entire west coast of the United States is under a tsunami watch. Waves could reach 6 feet in California.

This Alaskan tidal bore took place on the Turnagain Arm in the Cook Inlet near Girdwood (Anchorage), Alaska. A tidal bore, or bore tide, is when the leading edge of the incoming tide forms a wave (or waves) travel up a river or narrow bay in the opposite direction of the river or bay’s current. These tidal bores typically happen in areas with large tidal range. When there are large fluctuations in the low and high tides. Typically, 20 feet or so between the low and high tide marks.

The Cook Inlet is one place where a 5-mile ride is very normal. Watch the video to see why!

The man-made surfing wave introduced!

The Wave Garden is a man-made wave that creates ideal conditions for surfing, as well as a broadly appealing range of other wave sports such as body boarding, kayaking, and stand up paddling. Early testing and professional feedback show Wavegarden to be the closest thing to an ocean break.

Hi everyone!

Sorry, I was away for a couple weeks because I got married and then went on my honeymoon! Now I’m back and trying to get some surf in and get back to the real world.

There will be more posts to come very soon! Keep an eye out for some summer contests.

Liquid Lifestyles is a series of 10 episodes following the surfing action in the world’s most spectacular destinations.  Champion surfers work the waves and give their ‘take’ on reading the surf along with in-depth stories from the local viewpoint.  Learn about different cultures, cuisines and people in this energetic television series.  Unlike most travel documentaries, this series is a surfer’s view of the world. Surfing is not just about the water and the adrenalin-rush of catching the big waves. It’s about knowledge, skill, cultural curiosity, and an affinity with nature.  This surfing documentary series portrays the strengths of man and nature. It puts a human face on the sport, delving behind the images of magnificent wave riding – sharing the expert surfer’s knowledge of the craft, and the instincts and attitudes of the local surfing culture.  It is also filmed in some of the most spectacular destinations on Earth.

The series is made to explain all one needs to know before setting off for their next exciting surf travel adventure.  Think of this series as a television travel show based around surfing and not a television surf show based around travel.  This in itself gives Liquid Lifestyles more marketability and value for money.
