Excellent shots Rich, there is a lot more to surfing than just standing up and riding that plank into the beach.


I particularly like 3,4 and 7 and 2 you can see where he has carved the wave.


Nice job.

Surfing can be a beautiful sport. Even when the action isn't quite so extreme....

I really admire them for going out and surfing in New York. As a transplantee from California, I've found that the east coast lacks both real waves and real mountains.

Not longboard. I need more focal length for good shots, but this one captures some action....
