There was some doubt about the swell on April 1st, 2022. Throughout March, the last few South swells had been fun–but generally not tubing. It was starting to feel like overhead kegs would remain a distant memory. Alas, April immediately delivered what the Jersey faithful had been waiting for. The swell wasn’t huge, but it […]
For some reason, the photo galleries that get the most clicks on this website are 35mm film dumps. Not surfing galleries… Not pictures of some of the best waves NJ and the East Coast has to offer… Just dumb photos of people drinking beer and making weird faces at a mishandled Canon. I think it’s […]
Every year, the boys from South Jersey descend upon the Outer Banks of North Carolina in an attempt to get tubed, grill meat over open flame, and become wizards all in one shot. It’s often a hefty ask. However, in most years’ past, the gods of liquor and swell bless the Banks with permitting conditions […]
There’s no denying the Tropical Storm Isaias era of this Summer 2020 provided for East Coast surfers. In the week before Isaias, there was a 12-second, ESE swell that ignited an end-of-July & early-August surf fest. Isaias was lighting up Florida & the Southeast as NJ received fun, chest-high South swell conditions before the day […]
The now-annual Beer Chugg Surfing Competition on Rambler Road in Wildwood Crest, NJ has run for two straight years. The competitors have enjoyed sunny, offshore conditions and 2-3 foot surf both years–signaling that the gods are smiling upon our high-performance activities. In the end it was Ryan Gallagher (Rambler Surf Mag Editor and this year’s […]
On February 2020’s first Friday, NJ experienced a large South swell that had been forecasted something like 7 ft. @ 11 secs. It’s hard to say if the resulting surf matched that prediction; however, the day’s session turned out to be one that will be remembered. Some of the most hi-octane and longest righthand tube […]
The Canadian Road Rager is not only the hard-on a surfing man receives upon entering Canada; the term is also defined as a “seemingly jolly and greasy road trip through the U.S. Northeast coastline and the Maritime Province of Nova Scotia.” On Friday September 20th, 2019, a group of young men packed a semi-uncomfortable SUV […]
It is full on cheeseburger/liquor party weather… And it’s not even really Summer yet. The days are long as fuck, the sun has been out, and there have actually been some waves. We haven’t been taking too many photos as of late. However, the shots that we have stored up for the last few weeks […]
Dane Gudauskas once conceded to an interview for Rambler Surf Magazine last Summer at the NY House of Vans’ screening of the Electric Acid Surfboard Test. Unfortunately, that interview never surfaced (and yes, we know we interviewed the wrong Dane). However, upon meeting Dane G, I knew he was a a kind dude. Ever since, […]
It’s a wonderful feeling to get film back after you’ve only shot two rolls over more than three months. From the nostalgia you feel when looking through images taken during times of warmth (Late Fall on OBX and Early Winter in Barbados), to just simple shots of friends making dumb faces (Drue and his Yuengling) […]
