Need An Excuse To Miss Your Next Dawn Patrol?

Let’s be honest — if you live in Southern California right now, you can afford to miss a dawn patrol. Following one of the rainiest winters in recent memory, this summer has been treacherously flat, following only a brief south swell reprieve in May.

It has sucked.

But, the upside is that you can spend a long night out with friends, free from the guilt of missed morning corners.

Tomorrow night at Salty Bear Brewing Co, our friends Nolan Rapoza and Tyler Gunter are premiering their new film Embers, which depicts exactly what they’ve done to escape the doom and gloom of nonexistent buoy readings.

Come by, drink a beer, and stay a while.
