Click or Miss Vol. 8 cinema // Jan 11, 2021 Words by Zack Raffin This week’s churning of the content conveyor belt has brought you an all Hawaiian version of Click or Miss. With Sunset cancelled, it’s fair to assume the Google search frequency for ‘flights from Honolulu’ has gone up on Oahu. While some may go, there are many reasons to remain on the North Shore (a shot at $50k following surfing’s worst fiscal year in memory being one of them).  With the noticeable uptick in surfer vlogs over the past year, and so m...

The league also deciding to postpone the CT Santa Cruz Pro, which had been scheduled for February 2 - 12. The WSL issued a statement saying the decision to postpone the last planned event of the US leg of the tour was based primarily on the surge of COVID-19 cases in California.

Staff If you’ve ever been to the North Shore of Oahu in December, you know it pretty amazing. The best surfers in the world are all out there, shoulder to shoulder with the Average Joes, surfing waves in between contests. It’s like playing a pickup game of basketball on the court at your local park and having Lebron James and James Harden show up. Kelly Slater and John John Florence have been friends for a long time — since John was just a little kid paddling out at Sunset, in fact — so it’s not a huge surprise that they recently had a pretty dang good session together at ...
