Another perfect day to be in Huntington Beach for the US Open of Surfing! Crystal clear weather, big events, and plenty of entertainment in the event village.
Huntington Beach was packed with people beachin' it up for the event!
Viewers & media had their choice of watching from the pier or from the beach line...I chose a little of both.
Is this the next rage? Single wheel pivoting "skates"?
Nike 6.0 surf gear was looking awesome!
Decked out in more Nike gear...looking good!
Overview of the Converse skateboard park! (with the event village and HB pier in the background)
One of the skaters carving around the "capsule" section of the Converse park.
One competitor looking upon the other as the competition heats up.
Some of us couldn't take the heat...
...and others had more important things to ride than waves.
Sand volleyball anyone?
Bright fluorescent colors are definitely the hot thing in action sports right now.
On the opposite side of the pier, plenty of amateur surfers grabbed their boards and caught some waves of their own.
Actions Sports lifestyle culture is always full of interesting cues towards the next wave of apparel fashion, cutting edge marketing efforts, and some of the most exciting sports imagery in the world. Wow, what a weekend…thanks for tuning in!
