Here’s how it works: Download (if you haven’t already) the GoogleEarth satellite imaging program from Google.com and use it to scour the Earth’s remote coastlines for potential wave set-ups from the comfort of your own home. When you find a good one, make a jpg. “frame grab” or a hard copy print out of the set-up, with the coordinates provided by Google Earth on the page, and send it to:
Email To :
surfing@primedia.com with the subject GOOGLE CHALLENGE or
Mail to:
Surfing Magazine Google Challenge
950 Calle Amanecer, Suite C
San Clemente CA 92673
We’ll choose the set-up with the most potential as a NEW DISCOVERY and, if it’s yours, we’ll not only set you up with a killer prize pack of shorts/sandals/tide watches/backpack courtesy of Quiksilver Travel, but we’ll also take you (along with a few top pros and one of our veteran photographers) there to surf place. Hell, we’ll even let you name the break if it’s going off.
Sound like a dream come true? You bet it does. So log on and start searching. Happy hunting.
