In this issue

We draw parallels between the surf and aerospace industries, get lucky at a fickle South Pacific slab, trace the altered history of a once-famed Indonesian wave, and lurk in a storied carpark. We also tap into the knowledge of an ace forecaster on the cutting-edge of swell science, study surf-art allegory, hang with a newly content nomad, slide 11-foot-plus boards, and more.
