Clips of the Day: $2 You Call Its


Since the pros are back on tour, most of the clips the past month have been of a random variety- new movie traliers, highlights from a recent contest, and some dreamy little beachbreak barrels. I've decided to put all of them on the North County Surf blog this week- kind of a surf jambalaya. First up is Reef's new video above called 'Anything Sing' which bridges old school and new with Nick Rozsa, Shane Dorian, Conner Coffin, Mick Fanning, and more. Basically I'm looking forward to the White Lightening and Backdoorian footage.
Another good clip is from Marine Layer Productions or Summer Teeth or whatever Dane Reynolds is calling his site now. In typical Dane fashion, the surf isn't firing or particularly big but rather some random beachbreak with no one out. What's different about this clip vs. all the other clips he puts out is that it mainly features pal Craig Anderson and it's not windy but glassy. But it looks so darn fun- just waist to chest high, no one out, and perfect little barrels. The clip can be viewed here.
And the pros are in-between WCT events right now (Gold Coast and Bells) so they've made a little stopover in Western Australia to surf Margaret River. And surf a Prime event in the process- the Drug Aware Pro. And in typical Margaret's fashion- it's firing. Yesterday was a solid 8' and offshore. 'CT guys were out shredding, 'QS guys were ripping, and there was even an Occy sighting. And lucky for us- Pottz is commentating. Pottz even said that if the swell keeps building, by Saturday they'll be having he finals at The Box. No bull. Make sure to check out the event here. In-between March Madness viewing of course.
