I've got a buddy who's one of those rare 'Renaissance' men in surfing. Super talented, able to 'go' any direction as the waves or his mood dictates......actively bodysurfs, or rides any number of boards from short kinky things to huge longboards...........and everything in between. Truly a pleasure to watch.

Went out on a little Mission the other day and found a nice spot dealing out some reeling little spinners for a few hours before the tide got too low, and Ross took out one of his latest acquisitions, something he's nicknamed the 'Belly Box'. It was shaped by his friend Kyle Albers, and is a 4' 6" version of a couple of combined design genres. He rides this thing prone..........as a kneeboard.....or standing up. It just..........depends.

Here's some shots we got in the morning light before everyone scrambled into their suits and jumped in to join him-

Not done yet...

A few more....

Here's the last of 'em. Nothing huge by anybody's standards (but still plenty 'overhead'...), but darn fun as long as you let your imagination run free and are astride the right equipment with an open mind.

Looks like a blast. Sweet conditions and minimal crowd more than make up for size....any day. I could not get to the beach today.

like it!

Plenty fun looking plus no crowds and good shape

as Don Van Vliet would say..

"this is the best batch yet"

instant classics.

Looks like so much fun. I want to be there.

All good stuff! The testing continues................this time, up at a rocky cove in the middle of southern Big Sur.
