Surfing’s Best Kept Secret

Last year Surfer Magazine named their choices for the top 10 US surf towns. Here they are, and as you can see, South Padre, Corpus Christi, Port Aransas, and Galveston are still US surfing’s best kept secrets. I saw the founder of Quicksilver by Bob Hall one time; even the insiders are keeping their lips sealed about the 8-12 foot waves, beach privacy, and warm water on the Texas gulf.

TOP 10 US SURF TOWNS:

1. Santa Cruz, CA
2. Haleiwa, HI
3. Encinitas, CA
4. Paia, HI
5. San Clemente, CA
6. Kill Devil Hills, NC
7. Malibu, CA
8. Montauk, NY
9. New Smyrna Beach, FL
10. Ocean City, NJ

Introducing Texas Gulf Coast Surfing Magazine

Found in Surf News — Tags: , , — Texas Surfer

TEXAS SEES THE RETURN OF A PRINTED PUBLICATION DEDICATED TO SURFING THE TEXAS COAST.

From High Island to SPI, surfers and enthusiasts can now enjoy complete coverage of the Texas surf scene.

CORPUS CHRISTI, TX. – Feb.1 2010 – Sirfur Productions announces the release of “Texas Gulf Coast Surfing Magazine”, a quarterly publication with a sole focus on the Texas surf scene.

With Texas Gulf Coast Surfing Magazine, Texan surfers no longer have to hope and pray for a brief glimpse of Texan waves in any of the major surfing publications. Now Texans have the opportunity to see their coast in full color, possibly seeing themselves in action.

Each issue of Texas Gulf Coast Surfing Magazine is between 44-60 pages, full of beautiful photos of Texan waves in all its under-appreciated glory. In-depth articles about Texan surfers, surf spots, and the Texas contest scene stuff the covers, and the magazine promises to have “more content” and “less advertisement. The magazine, printed on heavy-duty, gloss paper, surpasses the quality of most major surf publications.

Texas Gulf Coast Surfing Magazine is available at newsstands and surf shops. The cover price is $5.00 Subscriptions are available for $12.00 per year (plus tax) at www.texasgulfcoastsurfing.com

Company president Joe Vulgamore states: “Texan surfers are a special breed, with special stoke. While our waves are less than world class, we still get good surf and our surfers deserve the recognition. Our coastal economies could also use a boost from tourism and vacationers. Perhaps our magazine can help.”

Texas Surf Pictures

This is really a tribute to a website that was called Surf Texas 365. It was one of my favorites and I linked to it from Texas Surfers until it disappeared. I was able to grab some of the photos and info off of the website, though, and I’m posting those here.

I got tired of hearing how there was no surf in Texas. So in 1999, I got myself a waterproof camera and set out to dispell the fallacy that there was no surf in Texas. Following you will find photos of my ventures up and down the Texas coast, capturing totally ridable surf ridden by surfers with as much stoke as you will find anywhere in the world. We may not get huge surf in Texas, but we get surf just the same. The surf we get simply makes us hungrier for more. Enjoy these photos and keep on surfing! Mahalo! -Dave Lilliott

Most of the pictures on the website weren’t able to be saved. I got everything I could.

Happy New Year’s Eve!

This picture has to make you smile. I’m sure I’ve made this face many times on the water. It’s barely surfable out there but we’re still managing to have fun.

As the years go by, you learn to appreciate the lulls almost as much as you enjoy the swells.

Santa’s getting his stoke on before the big night tonight; I’m sure we’ll see him out there tomorrow morning after he’s delivered all those gifts, too.
