Editor’s Note: This feature was made possible by our partners at Surftech. Colin McPhillips is one of my favorite surfers. He’s won three world titles and to surf with him is to truly understand style. He’s carved out a life in the ocean all while raising a family that’s completely devoted to the sea. And he’s a Baja adventurer to the core – he knows every nook and cranny of the peninsula like the sunspots on the opposite side of his palm. The man has made as many trips down through the dusty Mexican highways in search of waves as anyone in Southern California. To me, he personifies everything great about riding waves. We had a chat recently about his Baja sojourns and what he’s been riding – namely the new Surftech line of Gerry Lopez boards.
