9:17 AMWave check at Aliso
With a south swell pulsing, tides
dropping and winds cooperating, tim
heads to check how aliso is holding
up. Leaving soon for the united skim
tour stop in Brazil, tim looks to find a
sider to prepare for sununga.
9:23 AMALISO IS A GO
"'aliso gets so much power, it's gotta
be one of the heaviest waves in laguna.
when it gets good and when the sider
works, it's in my opinion one of the
best waves in the world.""""'
9:55 AMQuick Sesh At Aliso
"'Living in south laguna i normally
check aliso and west street and make
my decision from there. Today the tide
was a little too high for west so i fig-
ured aliso would get some fun ones.""""'
10:14 AM"'the waves were pretty decent today,
the south swell allowed the sider to
push through and connect to some
good ones. only if the water temp
warmed up a bit.""""'
11:57 AM'The skim culture in Laguna is top notch.
Traveling around the world though, I can
definitely say i'm jealous of the cultures
growing in places like Mexico, Portugal and
Brazil. That's the future of the sport.'
12:24 PMExile Skimboards HQ
Tim heads to the exile headquarters in
san clemente, california to look for
a new board for his 3 week trip down
to brazil for the first stop of the 2013
united skim tour.
12:34 PMQuiver check
"'For some reason i always need to
have some sort of red on my boards.
i have no idea why, i think i'm just
super superstitious with the colors i
choose for my pads and boards.""""'
2:17 PMWavehouse
tim heads down to the san diego wavehouse
with some buddies. while it takes about 45
minutes to get there from Laguna, he tries to
make it down to ride to the standing wave at
least once a week.
3:02 PMWavehouse
"'Beaker introduced me to the wave-
house way back in the day when i was
about eleven. I didn't make it down
there that often until recently but
now i try to make it down at least
once a week.'
4:36 PMHomeward bound
After a long day, tim hops on the 5 freeway to head back
home to laguna. after this week, tim's focus will turn to
the UST and finalizing his boards for brazil as he seeks to
improve on his 3rd place overall finish the year before.
