  1. Paddled around the pier this day to get to Northside. That was a 1st for me, was pretty epic. Bunch of lobster traps out by Rubyโ€™s that made it extra dicey if you tried to paddle through it. They say an El Niรฑo event is in the works for this summer which means Northside rights could be coooooking ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œโšก๏ธ Footage courtesy of @surfline and a DM from a friend of a friend at jiu jitsu ๐Ÿ˜ƒ @jleblancca Was riding a round pin mini step up 6โ€™0 @lostsurfboards these swells

  2. Glory to God!! What an amazing week it has been at Lake Havasu with friends. This win feels even better than I visualized it would be. All of your messages, calls, etc. are humbling. THANK YOU! It was one heck of a ride and one I hope to take again soon. I would like to thank my sponsors who support me and allow me to fish for a living. They say if your passion is your job, you will never work a day. FACT! Again, thank you for your love and support ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผ. ๐Ÿ“ธ @mlfbig5official @fishshots_charleswaldorf TODDKLINEFISHING.com #bassfishing #largemouthbass #smallmouthbass #fishing #lakehavasu

  3. This had to be my coolest Swimbait bite. I was throwing a Senko in the trees when a Wolfpack swam by me. I reached down and grabbed my @drt_usa and fired out in front of them. They all turned and the biggest fish shot to the front and ate it. I have to give a big shout out to @electric_fishing . I was wearing the @swimbaitunderground with the Yellow Polarized Pro lens. They are hands down the best. @diamondvalleymarina #bassfishing #swimbait #largemouthbass

  1. โ€œJUMBO PUMPING LOVEโ€ is NOT the name of the hardest rock climb in America. It could have been. So how does a climb gets its name? This story started over 3 decades ago, when a striking, but faint line of pockets - viewed through my binoculars - eventually became one of the most difficult and famous rock climbs in the world. On a cold November day in 1991, perched near the summit of remote Clark Mountain, I embarked on a top down inspection of what was the most king line I ever found. Wild swings into the wall to place bolts revealed section after section of V-hard boulder problems. My psyche was high as I slowly and methodically continued down, placing bolts. It became abundantly clear to me that this entire climb would go, but at a standard much more difficult than the hardest grade in 1991. I thought maybe this would be possible as a multi pitch climb. I tried it, was unable to make it to the halfway anchors, so I set my sights on the other king line to the left which I named Jumbo Pumping Hate (5.14a). Fast forward to 2008, when Chris Sharma redpointed my original king line project. In true Sharma fashion, he brought it to a new level by climbing the entire wall in one very long pitch. He named this โ€œJumbo Loveโ€ and graded it 5.15b. It stood as the hardest and proudest sport climb in America for 14 years. There were a few repeats by Americaโ€™s strongest sport climbers. In 2013, I belayed Sharma on a hard start (bolted by Jorge Visser) to Jumbo Love. This was like adding a 5.14b, with no rest, to a long 5.15b. I tried to do the mathโ€ฆ how hard could this be? The direct start to Jumbo Love remained un-redpointed until October 2022, when Seb Bouin linked it all together. So how does a route get its name? What would Seb name it? Do you honor the history in your name as Sharma did with Jumbo Love, or do you call it something completely different? Seb messaged Chris and me. With a little back and forth, he decided on โ€œSuprรชme Jumbo Loveโ€ (5.15c).

  2. Greg Child took this photo of me 2,000 feet up the sheer SE face of El Captain during our first ascent of Lost In America (1985). As a young climber, I aspired to be a businessman, so I brought the Wall Street Journal to some pretty unusual places. I had a lifestyle in mind. With that goal, I learned how to work hard and make it happen. One of the keys to success was being my own boss. #climbinghistory

  3. An iconic shot of Ron Carson on The Titanic (5.12c), during the first ascent in 1987. Recently, I was contacted by Needles pioneer, Patrick Paul, to include this in the Kernvillle Museum, where they will have a section devoted to climbing in the Southern Sierra. This route is still a handful for most climbers. The first ascent party included @tony_yaniro , Ron Carson, Brett Maurer and me.

  1. My fujifilm settings for soft, cinematic photos Iโ€™ve been getting asked about my settings lately โ€”especially how I get that softer, more cinematic look :) As a newer fujifilm photographer, these are the ones that really helped me start finding my style and simplify things a bit. โ˜บ๏ธโ˜€๏ธ For me, itโ€™s really just a combination of lowering contrast, softening clarity, and slightly warming the image to create that nostalgic, film-inspired feelโ€ฆ โ€ฆbut these definitely arenโ€™t hard and fast rules โ€” just a starting point that helped me. :) Play around with them, change things, experiment, and find what feels like you ๐Ÿค

  2. When I first started shooting sunsets on my Fujifilm, something always felt off. The sky would look incredible in real life, but my photos kept losing the color. Learning how Dynamic Range works made a much bigger difference than I expected.

  3. The beginner-friendly Fujifilm guide I wish I had when I first started. :) When I first got my Fujifilm, I was so confused by recipes. People would talk about film simulations, white balance shifts, dynamic range, highlight + shadow settingsโ€ฆ and I genuinely had no idea what any of it meant. I remember thinking, waitโ€ฆ what are we even changing? ๐Ÿ˜… So one afternoon I went down a deep dive, started experimenting, and slowly began figuring out how each setting actually changes the feel of a photo. Ever since then, building recipes has become one of my favorite parts of the creative process โ€” itโ€™s such a beautiful way to shape mood, light, color, and atmosphere before you even start editing. I put this together as a little guide I can come back to whenever I need it, and if it helps someone else whoโ€™s just getting started, that makes me so happy.
