Aaron Cervantes found some waves on his 5’6 Quadkumber this week, in Newport. Aaron also managed to split a peak with a Sandpiper, checking over his shoulder to make sure the Sandpiper went left. Photos: Thomas Green

Simon Patchett, getting after it; on his 5’6 Quadkumber model. Grab rail cutback in Sumatra. Generally speaking, Patchy has pushed the Quadkumber further and harder than I really expected.

Chad Cress bought a super 8 camera off eBay, partially because everyone is fascinated with true film, partially because the camera itself looks cool. He and Aaron Cervantes went and shot at a secret spot, known to locals as the Huntington Beach Pier. Aaron was having his first go on his 5’6 Quadkumber, and Chad was having his first go with his super 8 camera… but you’d never know it. Good work, lads.
