Before we get going on today's surf report, we want to take a moment to say goodbye to our 2009 Summer Intern- Jeremiah "Chewy" Matthews.  After 4 months with the NSR crew, it's finally time to head back to school (man, that went by FAST!).  Chewy came to us in May and spent his summer working and surfing with NSR.  When he arrived, he was pale and somewhat out of shape and he fell down a lot.  When he left, he was a formidable specimen of bronzed, twisted steel who had mastered the "Jacksonville cutback" and the "backside Pigdog".  He rocked the graphics design part of his job and delivered some outstanding work including: New Maps, T-Shirt Designs, Web work, Printed Binders, photos and much more.  What we didn't expect were the intangibles he brought to the table - an eagerness to learn, a willingness to do almost anything and unwaivering optimism about even the most trivial things (like the polynesian sauce from Chic-fil-a).  As it turned out, he was also an excellent cook and an amazing musician.  I once witnessed him learn to play a Coldplay song by listening to it 3 times.  He's got an album coming out soon and I strongly recommend everybody to check it out. 

Chewy, it was a true pleasure to have you down this summer.  You will most definitely be missed and you will always be welcome back.  Thanks for everything, keep in touch and have fun showing off your new barrel skills in the Hurricane Bill swell!

Hi fellas, welcome to the Sunday surf report from.  We are the NSR family bringing you all the action straight to your computers, no matter where you at.  The waves were well over head on sets but very inconsistent and the wind was messing around, turning from offshore to side shore the whole day but we still scored some fun waves.  Check it out!!!

Miguel got hired by a few guys staying at the NSR House.  They were super stoked because they knew that they were going to make it on the daily surf report.  This is Brian about to throw the lip of the back on this right.

The Captain Moss and a couple friends were taking some big barrels during the morning sesh.  Here we have a cool shot of this guy smiling for the camera.  That one might came out good, uh!

Jamil “El Enano” from Popoyo was killing the barrels at the wedge.  If you would put a bus inside that thing it would also make it out.  Don’t you think so?
