Humbling Newport Beach

Last Session for the Lopez Brothers in California this trip and it was by far the biggest and gnarliest wedge the boys have seen. Nick and Ale were both charging and got some of the best and scariest waves of their lives. The Wedge is known to be one of the heaviest spots in the US and on days like these it is hard to say otherwise. Can't wait for summer. . . . .

Oktoberfest 11

The week before the Oktoberfest in Newport, the boys have been hittin' it hard and scoring some very fun fs liners in caribbean like weather in Newport. Sunny skies, fast water, sheet glass and plenty of beautiful blue waves keep the boys on point and looking forward to the weekend to come. Nicolas took 6th place and ale just had fun going against his idols, Brandon Sears and Teddy Vilasis. "It always awesome seeing all the pros you looked up to as a child shred to peices waves right in front of you and making it look effortless," -Alejandro. The Lopez Brothers are pretty stoked on life right now counting their many blessings one by one and eager to see new south pulses aproaching with sand at the wedge as prime as it gets. STAY TUNED. . . . . . .

Lopez Brothers in Santa Cruz

Nicolas Lopez took 4th in the Santa Cruz contest last weekend!! BUP BUP Congrats Nico!! Alejandro had a super stacked heat against 14 time world champ Bill Bryan and Brandon BCS Sears. Alejandro got knocked out but Bill said he definitely put up a fight and made it interesting. Besides from the contest, some fun sessions were had at the famous liner pointbreak called Rockies. The boys were in heaven with the waist high liners but unfortunately did not get any footage for the boys back home to drool over.

2011 KEVORKIAN 5000


No excuses need to be a Moron. Skimcaribbean host its second Kevorkian 5000. Morningstar Beach, St Thomas.

LIME TREE BEACH

Tropical Storm Maria danced with us last week making for some windy rainy days. When the skies cleared skimcaribbean found Morningstar beach was washed out. Hoping for the best, we slid over to Lime Tree Beach to find a fun session. This is the first the three of us had skimmed Lime Tree. It was nice to finally catch it.
