A few months ago, @visslasurf's Creators & Innovators—including @thomascampbellart, @cliff_kapono, @surfboardsbytravisreynolds, @gado_gadooo, @donaldbrink and more—converged in Baja to build an eclectic quiver of boards, collaborate on art projects and rip the bag out of some glassy peelers.

"I couldn’t begin to count the number of times I have crossed the border in search of waves, adventure or just to seek refuge from the Southern California hustle," says tube-hound @gerglong, pictured here under the hood of a screamer somewhere just south of the border.

In a collective effort to protect their coastline, Australian surfers and citizens have drawn a hard line in the sand against the Norwegian oil company @equinor and their plans to drill in the Great Australian Bight. @healthjozza (above), one of the many surfers who reside in the Bight, has helped lead the charge against Equinor since this issue began, even confronting members of Equinor’s team directly about their claims concerning the safety of drilling in very rough seas.
