Catalina Channel lays down for famously challenging Rock 2 Rock Paddleboard race

Catalina Channel lays down for famously challenging Rock 2 Rock Paddleboard race SHARE Photos by Ken Pagliaro (KenPagliaro.com) by Kevin Cody The annual Rock 2 Rock paddleboard race is famous for bad conditions. The start at Two Harbors on Catalina Island typically has onshore winds whistling through the Isthmus, churning up the water.  The finish, at Cabrillo Beach, is known to windsurfers as Hurricane Gulch because of its powerful offshore winds. Not this year. The only disruption was a slow moving freighter that forced the slower paddlers to sit up while it passed. Otherwise, conditions were as conducive to fast times any year in recent memory. The water was flat and the feared wind at the finish never materialized.

Hermosa Beach's Greg Noll was Da Bull. His surf legacy was even greater than he claimed

by Kevin Cody Five of the six inductees in the inaugural 2003 Hermosa Beach Walk of Fame ceremony were surfboard builders from the ‘60s Golden Era of surfing. Individually, and collectively, they rank among the most influential figures in the sport’s history. “It just goes to show that if you live long enough and you tell enough B.S. surf stories, at some point, everyone will believe you because there’s no one around to dispute you,” Greg Noll, then 66, said during his acceptance speech.  The other board builders inducted that day were Hap Jacobs, Bing Copeland, Rick Stoner and Dewey Weber.

All is well, Hermosa Beach Fourth of July Ironman returns

All is well, Hermosa Beach Fourth of July Ironman returns SHARE Photos by JP Cordero by Kevin Cody Proof that Hermosa Beach has returned to pre pandemic normalcy was demonstrated Sunday morning when over 500 people competed in the 47th Annual Hermosa Beach Fourth of July Ironman.  Last year’s Ironman was cancelled because of the pandemic, leading to fears that another Hermosa tradition might fail to rebound.  Surfer Shane Gallas, of Manhattan Beach, and runner Annie Seawright-Newton, of Hermosa Beach were presented with the traditional Hermosa Beach Ironman street signs for finishing first in their divisions.   Gallas finished the mile run, and mile paddle in an impressive 15:30, and downed his six pack, without a single upchuck, in an even more impressive 8:30. It was his first Ironman victory in over a dozen attempts.
