On the cover: Oceanic mass at first light, Nazaré. “I was just wide of the peak,” says photographer Derek Dunfee. “This was one of the first waves that rolled in. Nazaré is the most challenging place to shoot from the water, even on a ski. Cleanup sets are constant and unpredictable. I never feel safe.” we run up the coast looking for surf in the Travel Advisory Level 4 zone of Sinaloa, offer a retrospective on Jimmy Metyko’s captures of Santa Barbara’s 1980s “progression era”, and trek across volcanic rock to find empty pointbreaks in the Eastern Atlantic. A retelling of Rob Machado’s disaster-plagued biopic benefits from longform treatment, while a look at the legacy of the world’s most famous wave print hits on wider cultural interest points.
