It was FIRING. Los Angeles doesn’t get days like this often. The day before this swell, a massive storm rolled through Southern California: heavy rain, strong winds, flash flood warnings, and classic winter chaos. But as soon as it cleared, the ocean turned on in a way we dream about.

Perfect offshore conditions & tubes up and down the beach. Matt Pagan might’ve snagged the best barrel of the season (so far).

All in all, it was one of those sessions you wish you could bottle up forever, the kind that reminds you why you live here and why winter in California can be so special.
