Jettygirl Time Machine - July 30, 2007 - Surf Session with Bec Woods, Kyla Langen, Kim Mayer, Kassia Meador, Rochelle Ballard, Lyndsay Noyes, Violet Kimble, Sarah Beardmore, Megan Abubo, and Claire Bevilacqua
Description:
We've decided it's time to unlock the video vault and showcase some of the sessions that have gone down in front of our lenses over the years. The video size may be small and standard definition (*glorious 480p, haha) but the spirit of the sessions back then were most definitely high-def, vibrant and in full color.
If it hadn't have been for two individuals, Kyla Langen and Kassia Meador, Jettygirl would never have become a reality. At the time, Kyla was living in Carlsbad while Kassia Meador had recently moved to Oceanside. These two homes would become the focal points as some of the best female surfers in the world would stop by and visit during the summers. Each morning I'd wake up to pre-social media text messages and phone calls about how the waves were and where the session was going to happen.
It could just be the Oceanside area itself, but I see less and less of these surf sessions where groups of women get together and push the limits at one particular break. All of these surfers were complete individuals but there was enough cohesiveness as a group for people on the beach to feel the energy of women's (shortboard) surfing being pushed forward one ride at a time, even on a junky summer day like the one in this clip.
Well, enough chatter on my part. I hope you enjoy the first of many Jettygirl Time Machine surf sessions ...good rides, wipeouts, smiles, and everything else that makes an average day at the beach something special.

Danielle Burt: Chapter Two
Description:
In the summer of 2004 Danielle Burt was involved in a motorcycle accident that left her with collapsed lungs, dozens of broken bones, six weeks in a coma, and ultimately, the loss of her right leg. After a lengthy healing and recovery process, Danielle's heart turned toward the ocean. After gathering some spare parts to create a functional "surf leg," she caught her first waves and was immediately hooked on surfing. Danielle Burt: Chapter Two celebrates an incredibly positive human being, a great surfer, and a hero to virtually everyone she meets.

Whomp-O-Rama Encuentro con Christine Brailsford - Fotos de Chris Grant / Jettygirl.com
Aun no me puedo recordar donde o cuando fue que por primera vez escuche acerca de los eventos Whop-O-Rama, pero si tuviera que adivinar probablemente diría que fue a través del "PAIPO debote", Glenn Sakamoto de la revista Liquid Salt Magazine. En los 70' recuerdo que tratamos de utilizar nuestras sandalias como "Handplanes" para correr las olas, fuera de esta experiencia no he tenido la oportunidad de experimentar esta modalidad de "Handplanes". Realmente no tengo idea de que esperar de este evento. En el momento en que llegue a la playa en Leucadia, descubrí un gran grupo de personas amantes de la diversión de todas las edades; compartiendo las olas del mar con sus diferentes y muy originales equipos "rides" para una sección que se me hace difícil renombrar. Hace ya un mes de esta dia y aun puedo escuchar las carcajadas de risa y ver las sonrisas de las personas. Si en algún momento descubres uno de estos eventos ya sea por Facebook o en algún otro de los medios, no lo pienses, ya que es garantizado que te divertirás en grande. Para tener una mejor idea de lo que es Whomp-O-Rama, nos encontramos con su propietario Christine Brailsford ( en la siguiente foto) para conocer su opinión del evento.

Board Shorts 2012
“I loved this film for its ability to reach right into my core-heart and remind me of why I surf.” – Cori Schumacher 3 x Women’s World Longboard Champion – State of Flux Blog on the short film Surf Jam
“When Elizabeth Bradshaw from the San Diego Surf Ladies reached out to us to take part in the Board Shorts Surf Film Festival, the first film festival to feature all women surfers, we couldn't have been more excited! We loved the idea of mixing art, film, and fun, surf related products for women, and it all came together perfectly in La Jolla last Saturday night!” – Amanda Chinchelli – Seea - retro-modern surf apparel
“You know I quit my job to follow my heart; to dream and create things like this film. I actually made this short during the first month I was unemployed and to see it on the screen made me feel like all I had done and worked for, had purpose.” - Devon Holloway DeMint – Film Maker/Surfer - The Mermaid Chronicles

Desert Affairs from Shannon Mackie on Vimeo.
"Desert Affairs" by Shannon Mackie | Starring Georgia Fish Description: Lennox Head resident Georgia Fish is the latest surfer to sample the waves at Wadi Adventure, the Middle East's first man made surfing facility. From where we're currently sitting and staring at a stubbornly flat Pacific Ocean, those pool-blue peaks look mighty fun. Filmed & Edited by Shannon MackieAdditional Resources:






Silvana Lima is the only person we've ever seen that other surfers, both guys and girls, get out of the water to watch her surf. On this day in Southern California, the Brazilian surfer lit up the place with huge frontside snaps and creative frontside airs. Although injured throughout the majority of 2012, we have our fingers crossed that Silvana will be back in the water turning heads in 2013. Single Wave Thursday. One ride, no music, just surfing.

Do a Google search for Bruna Schmitz and you'll be wading through well over one hundred images before you get to a single photo of her surfing. This fact may be hidden from the general web searcher but her fins-free blasts are equally beautiful.

I'm not sure if they had jack-in-the-box toys in Argentina when she was growing up but my favorite human version is Ornella Pellizzari. By far.

Dear Surf Industry,
You missed one.
The girl on the virtually sticker-less purple board is one of the best surfers I've ever seen. If you don't believe me, believe the legendary Jay Adams who I could hear whistling loudly after the first wave of her session featured a huge hook, a fins-free blast, a clean roundhouse, and a solid frontside air.
Next time you're calculating budgets and going over pie charts for your lifestyle surfers, perhaps you can carve out a slice for a surfer who actually blows minds instead of kisses.
Sincerely,
A fan of Dimity Stoyle
Kamalehua Keohokapu - Photo: Chris Grant / Jettygirl.com
When surfing is broken down to its simplest form, the common denominator we all share is that it's fun, pure fun. Facing an onshore closeout, this happy Hawaiian chucked her board up and jumped over the falls with an aloha-filled smile that warmed this particular photographer's heart. At this 1/1000th of a second in world history, the true meaning of surfing was never clearer. Kamalehua Keohokapu, surfer.

Today I was able to shoot with one of Transworld SURF's Hottest Girls in Pro Surfing. Had I known of the honor bestowed upon her by making the list, I certainly would have offered my congratulations. Then again, when stacked up against her drive and training for a world title, her amazing painting skills, her deep love of books, her selfless desire to help out with charitable causes, and the absolutely professional way she carries out her duties as an athlete and role model, I don't think the "hottest girl" thing would rank very high on her list of accomplishments.
Courtney Conlogue, turning heads in a way that any true surfer can appreciate, by laying down a solid turn on a solid wave.
