"Stone Steps was one of Donald's favorite surf spots while living in Encinitas, California during 1970s. He designed this single fin mid-length model for himself to surf his home break (which back then was Stone Steps). It is a good mini-noserider but is also functional design off the tail. In addition to being a fun board for California waves, many of Donald's team riders excelled with this model on Oahu's South Shore, primarily Ala Moana Bowls with its log walls and tube sections. Unfortunately this model slowly faded out as surfboard design progressed in 1980s. Luckily, in the past few years, one of Donald's original team riders brought Donald this model back to show Donald. Donald decided to have this board meticulously scanned into the computer and we decided to add it to the 2015 collection. This design has plenty of width and thickness, soft V-bottom, flat rocker helps surfers paddle faster and catch waves easily. Smooth turn, good glide." - @surfboardsbydonaldtakayama This board was special ordered by our surfboard buyer to replicate the exact colors of the original Stone Steps model DT rode back in the day.

Name this southern California wave; infamous for heaving shorepound, heavy barrels & a long walk.

Camping last weekend in-between casting dry flies to eager trout. Shot this with my trusty Mamiya 7 and Kodak Portra 400. Shoot film, not megapixels.

I booked a flight to Wyoming. I expect something like this, even though this was shot in California. Wide opens valleys, drifting clouds, and fishy water.

I remember when the sandbars used to not suck all the time.
