HOME BEACHES GEAR INSPIRATION

I Surf
New York

Aloha!
I built this site as a fun web dev project that brings my love for surfing and coding together. There's some info on where to surf, take lessons, and buy surf gear around New York.

I also included some songs and videos for a more immersive experience and some inspiration to get you pumped to ride some waves.
