I’ve been checking out New York Local Jack Brull’s photography “Salt Stained Eyes” on a consistant basis now. Not your typical “hi-fi” photography, but some really great “crappy snaps” as he likes to call them. Definitely check it out at http://www.saltstainedeyes.blogspot.com/
getting some cover from the rain and garbage weather we have seen all June.

Finally there has been some consistant waves for a few days on Long Island. Surfed multiple sessions friday, saturday and sunday, and got some real good punchy waves. Got some water shots from Sunday morning. Here is one, and there should be a few more up later in the week. Tomorrow AM could be pretty fun too, get on it.
Mikey DeTemple’s “Picaresque” is now out and DeTemple is touring around the Northeast to show the new surf film. Check out dates and locations for the tour at http://www.highseasfilm.com/tourdates/. Also, the movie will be playing at St. Johns High School in West Islip on Thursday, June 18th, at 5:30 pm.
I haven’t been to Jersey in awhile, but I can’t wait to get back to the dirty for some dredging rights. ESM put together a pretty sick gallery from Jersey this spring. Check it! http://www.easternsurf.com/feature_springsessions2/index.html

a shot of TJ Gumiela from last May in Western LI. Check out the post below.
NY is blowing up! TJ Gumiela from Long Beach, NY is getting some good coverage from ESM. Check out this nice photo feature at http://www.easternsurf.com/ecr_tjgumiela/index.html. Make sure you watch the video on the last slide. Some really good footage of TJ ripping and getting shacked like crazy at the “slabyrinth”.
Big props out to New Yorkers, Balaram Stack and Mike Nelson for grabbing this sick shot that landed the cover of ESM. Check out the mag for more info and sick shots from the eastside.
If you’ve been flipping through the pages of the last few ESM mags, you have probably seen a few sick images of the Northeast from photographer Luke Simpson. Luke has some great images, and ESM put together an online feature of 20 of Luke’s images. You can check it out at http://www.easternsurf.com/btg_lukesimpson/index.html. You should also check out Luke’s personal site at www.lukesimpson.com. Enjoy!
eastern long island. june 6 2009
Hope everyone enjoyed the shots from Costa Rica on the main site (www.northeastsessions.com). After surfing some mushy peaks at a more popular spot with 15 guys out on Saturday AM, I decided to surf the break down the street from my house. Got a few decent ones but mostly some really good views before taking a pounding into the sand. Light is pretty harsh but you get the idea. Hopefully we have some little waves for Wednesday morning. Thanks for checking in.
