Soul in the Hole
Nat Young enlightens us on the "Oxbow Soul and Style" at Puerto Escondido. A far cry from the format of today's shortboard "cloning" contests, the "Oxbow Soul and Style" is a blast from the past when everyone rode different equipment and had different style based on their board and location they rode them. The contest featured the likes of Joel Tudor, Beau Young, and Bonga Perkins, among others.
The Galapagos
A hop, skip and a jump from Ecuador to the Galapagos Islands, Jamie Tierney tells of a new surfing destination.

Timekeeper: Anthony Friedkin
Jamie Brisick takes a look at photographer Anthony Friedkin's work over the years. Friedkin is a surf photographer by trade, however you won't find him pointing his camera at the pipeline masters or the "cash register barrels of Teahupoo". Rather his work is more inspired by the black and white golden era masters, like Henri Cartier-Bresson, Robert Frank, and Andre Kertesz.
