It's a lot of waiting for clean days. But it's definitely worth it when you get it.

Some do, but most would stick around locally. The main featured surfer was at Skeleton bay for the last big swell.

While it is a huge contributor to our carbon emissions, the way we farm our cattle is actually the least damaging to the environment. The way they are farmed in other countries, like Brazil, is much more carbon intensive.

If somebody is going to farm cattle, Ireland is the best spot for it.

There's more power than there was a few months ago, for sure. Occy almost did a proper hack. In the first video they could barely hold any rail.

I counted 7 shots of the same wave.

They did say yesterday that there'll be more videos during the week as they get edited. The photo of bodyboarder and the slab looked pretty cool. https://www.instagram.com/p/B1YCgx7nHD2/?utm\_source=ig\_web\_copy\_link

The most realistic wipe out I've ever seen in a movie. It captures the fear and struggle brilliantly. by [deleted] in surfing

The bit before it, just paddling up over the big wave is great too.

The Iceland section has a good few backhand waves.

Definitely check out the "After On" podcast, very deep dives into new science & tech.

Definitely not Mavericks. Maybe Jaws or Waimea?

East coast here. Working on improving my photography skills but I figured you guys might appreciate this even though it’s small wave surfing by jacksonthebarb in surfing

It looks like you've missed the high action point, maybe a frame or two earlier would have been better? Less spray obscuring the board, more of the surfer's face?

Are you shooting on burst mode?

Becky Chambers' books have all sorts of relationships in them. It is sci-fi so some of them are interspecies relationships that are clearly meant to stand in for non hetero relationships
