Cole Houshmand And A Lesson In Leverage

Another edit from San Clemente’s Indonesian hajj.

They say three is better than one… 

While true for certain activities (use your imagination), we’re here to debunk that myth. You see, Cole here initially hit us up saying he had three smaller edits he wanted to post on IG. With a little poking and prodding, three turned to one, and aren’t we glad it did.

Back in July we dropped this edit of Cole at Lowers, with Mikey C. exclaiming that his man turns as “some of the most enticing we’ve seen since Jordy gave up his full-time residency in the 949.” We’re happy to report that this statement has held true as Cole uses his large frame to displace water in voluminous proportions. We’re sure those few extra inches didn’t hurt while scraping under the ledge at Greenbush as well…

Click above to watch Cole and look out for more from one of San Clemente’s underrated work horses soon.
