El Porto has never really been known as a wave that
breeds top competitors. But as of late the EP groms
are ripping and taking charge at contests, most
recently at the NSSA Western Regionals. With the
likes of groms........
Chris Bredesen is one of the premier long board
surfers from the South Bay. His family history reads
like a who's who of south bay surfing starting with
his father who is one of the top surfers and lifeguards
to emerge from the area.........
Eddie Lester, this month's elporto.com grommet is
a familiar sight at Porto. He can be seen almost
any weekend and sometimes gets a session in during
the week........
To kick us off is a new talent emerging from the
South Bay, a kid most of us have seen in the water
at Porto sliding some wierd reverse or doing some
other skate boarding trick morphed into surfing.........
