Derelict Junction Day

I figured that the best way to celebrate Derelict Junction's birthday was to ride the DJ shaped Malogua at the Point and, perhaps, share a wave or two with the man himself.  Shortly after this photo, I saw Dennis ride a wave from Deadman's through Indicators and then past the Point at Marias...all on a day when no surf was expected.  Happy Birthday Mr. Ritch.

Some new photos just came in from our trip to Ghana del Sur

And the sequence you've been waiting for....

Outtakes from the first winter swell of the season

No looking back

Now that's what we call a loggable wall.

Dude, Where's My Board?

One Cobb on a Log at The Point somewhere East of Ghana

Point of information

This is taken from the DEA website. Although there is no controversy in the medical literature or at the policy making level at the DEA, I have observed some performance enhancing qualities of schedule 1 drugs when used for Cobbing. I am suggesting a classification change for the Cobb known as Schedule 4 to Schedule 1.

Ghana del Sur

The team rider, alternate team rider and team riders in training had a successful mission south and found waves at the Ghana del Sur. We also went a little deeper into the land of Gil and found some excellent off the beat path tacos, ceviche and moonshine mezcal. There was swell, stoke and some secretive strength. Needless to say the Maloguas and Dr. Extremo were missed! 

Congratulations to this guy, Dr. @chadrico Chd, for being named CEO of the Surfrider Foundation. It's well deserved, hard earned, and #surfrider is in capable hands. Well done!

Ready & Waiting...And Still Waiting

 

So many logs, so many memories.

Ready to make new ones. A sides & B sides too.

And to make room for the new Malogua 

aka "The Obnoxious Stick" by Derelict Junction.  

Stay Tuned Cobbers...

It is the Best of Times-An update from Time and Weather

The Maluagas are truly a sum of their parts. This is a great moment in Malogua history as we now have a clubhouse in Ghana and the ear of the new Strongman at Surfrider. I'm so stoked for you Rico and Pony, good on Ya! 

NextGen Team Rider

It should be noted that this shredder and his brother were stoked to log in Ghana.

Gone to Ghana

Great week of multigenerational cobbling and charging in the land of Ghana - small sampling here. Water warm enough for spring suits and jackets.
