Nova Scotia, Comfortable isolation
Noosa Noseriding champion Christian Wach never imagined he would swap his southern Californian surf sessions for some hardcore waves in the frozen waters of Nova Scotia, but he discovered that sacrificing a few degrees means you can have the ocean all to yourself...
Pop culture hangover
Al Knost is one of the more quirky people you’re likely to meet in the line-up, but he’s one of the best sliders around. He’s travelled the world over, ridden in many modern surf classics and has a close connection with a scene far removed from the modern marketplace hustle. Ryan Tatar tracked him down with his project partner Tyler Manson and gave us an insight into his freshest work.
Magical secret
Jeff Divine remembers the time when surfers were akin to outlaws and his photographs capture a life that makes us long for a time warp back to the days of uncrowded line-ups, good vibes and barefoot living.
