Ghost Rider

Devon shot this on film at San Onofre, where surfers have been riding since 1933 — first on redwood planks, now on single-fins not so different from the one caught mid-flight here. The cobblestone stretch between San Clemente and Camp Pendleton shapes a wave that favors longboards, which is why it became the training ground for world champions like Corky Carroll and Colin McPhillips, and why the Beach Boys name-checked it in "Surfin' USA." The surfer is gone — underwater before the shutter closed — and only the board remains.
