In this issue

Daniel Thomson’s midnight speed run at Lennox gets things started. Once Tom Curren cops to MR at Sunset as the best surfer he’s ever seen, you’ll find Mark Cunningham surfing among a mob of rarely seen subjects. If this dose of the offbeat has you re-evaluating your equipment, consider the virtues of sail-power with Greenough and our case for turning up the volume.
