Watch: Mase in Mex What Olympics?

This latest from Mason and Rory brought to light the juxtaposition of the polar opposites that exist in surfing today. Obviously, the “sport” of surfing is underway in Toyko but a million miles away, both literally and figuratively, Mason reminds us that surfing has two very different faces.

But actually, this same 1-2 combo has coincidentally been a summer favorite of many So Cal residents over the years. Newps in the morning, Lowers in the afternoon. Ya see, in the summertime in the Newport/Huntington…
