Winter Out West
When it comes to water cinematography in the surf, Tom "Jenno" Jennings is one of the best in the business. And though Jenno is best known for his swimming skills, he’s equally talented at shooting unique angles from land and filming mesmerizing moments of the world’s best surfers taking to the air. Jenno calls the rugged coastline of Western Australia home, and he spends his winters driving up and down its 1000-mile coastline, sleeping in his car, eating meat pies, and relying on the surf for a shower. One day he’s in the far southwest filming Jack Robinson in 8-to-10 foot tubes at North Point, and the next he’s 12 hours north, swimming underneath scary slabs with Ry Craike and the Kalbarri crew. It’s a thankless job and it’s one that comes with real hazards. West OZ is notorious for great white sharks, and as Jenno bobs around in the ocean without a surfboard for protection, he risks life and limb to get his incredible shots. For him, it’s all worth it. "I like to record images that show more than just a surfer riding a wave. It’s nice to get shots that show perspective. Capturing the craziest moments the ocean has to offer is what I'm passionate about." And in turn, those crazy moments are what make Winter Out West.

Let's Surf Seriously
Surfing used to mean something. Seems like all we see these days are fancy boys dancing on the water like damn ballerinas in fancy-ass boardshorts with $300 haircuts. What happened to cutbacks? Where is all the vertical re-entry three-to-the-beach aggression? Kids these days should be studying and taking notes from their elders. Instead, they’re playing grab ass on whatever newfangled video-game techno diarrhea shit shows they’ve got playing on their flat-screen pocket televisions. Don’t give us that drop wallet tail chuck full rotation bullshit if you don’t really mean it! If you’re gonna do a flip, do it with some conviction goddamnit! Cut the crap! Surf like you mean it—grab surfing by the balls and twist them like a crocodile dragging a baby goat to its death! If you’re gonna surf, do it for real, it’s time. Let’s surf seriously!
