Love the content; hate the algorithm. If you’re sick of doomscrolling but still want to keep abreast of the latest happenings in surfing, see below for a quick selection of stoke-inducing posts. We’ve got Mason Ho at a new, landlocked wave pool; a 45 year old Diffenderfer stick at Sunset Beach; and a bunch of stuff in between. Keep scrolling for more.

I recently posted a clip of Joel Tudor surfing at Kelly’s wave pool, and as might be expected, the comment section gets a little chaotic. What really pushed me over the edge was someone claiming that they’d turn down a trip to the wave pool, even if it were free. That’s just fucking insane.

Me? If you have a wave pool and are hellbent on witnessing some subpar surfing, and I don’t have to pay, hit me up ASAP. In the meantime, here’s professional fun-haver Mason Ho, testing out the new Palm Springs Surf Club’s man made wares.

I’m not sure if it’s because I was raised on the East Coast, but I’ve always been drawn to Europe’s surf scene. Simon Fitz, a German born photographer currently based out of Portugal, takes some beautiful photos of the country’s coastline. I really loved the mini-gallery above; scroll through for some stunning black & white shots.

Just an obscene quiver shot…and to think, this is just his collection of Ryan Burch fishes!

What’s cooler than historically significant surfboards? Seeing them put to good use. Here’s Matt Chojnacki AKA the Waxhead, riding Jesse’s Mike Diffenderfer gun a sizable Sunset.
