2018 FALL STAFF UPDATE
STAFF UPDATE
Fall
2018
Hey guys!! Along with coaching the grom team fall program on weekends, I have recently finished my second season as a coach of the Rumson Fair Haven High School surf team. Aside from surfing a bunch, the fall run of fishing has also been non-stop. The cold is finally here and hoping that brings the waves we are all waiting for!!
Heyyo it’s Rozzie checking in from the shaping room! Been grinding away, shaping and glassing a bunch of boards. I have a couple boards going for some of the summertime crew and even a few lucky camp groms! Looking forward to a winter full of waves!

Matt White has been “working hard, trying to get to the beach every chance I get, and enjoying the seasons like Halloween and Movember.”
Still good times to be had paddling in the fall! A quick getaway to Florida for some OC6 and SUP races. Locally, over 40 racers participated in the SUP4NC charity race raising over $4,000 for Hurricane Florence victims (thanks Summertime Surf for your generous raffle basket donation!) Getting dark way too early now and dreaming of summer evening paddles!

Hey y’all! I’m down here at Coastal Carolina University, right outside of Myrtle beach, doing plant wetland research on rare plant species in the area! I’m also taking plenty of ocean and marine courses to come back this summer with some fun new facts for you guys! I’m also actively taking yoga classes and cant wait to add new things to the yoga circle. While things are fun here, I can’t wait to be under the summer sun all day catching waves with you guys and gals!
Happy holidays to you all:)

Hey groms!! I’m flying though my first semester at Flagler College, learning lots and surfing as much as possible! The Flagler Surf Team has been killing it, taking first in our first contest of the year last month and we’re looking to make it to Nationals in the Spring. As much fun as I’m having down here in Florida, I can’t wait for winter break to get some quality New Jersey winter waves. Hope everyone has been enjoying the school year so far, see y’all soon! Yewww!

Some nice pics of camp lenseman, Matt Amatto. A young man of few words but many backside whacks.
Finding that it’s about as much fun chasing a 1.5-year-old as it is to chase waves.

Aloha STS Famalia. Getting my Italian froth meter going this offseason. I received a scholarship via Wildflower Montessori to study for the year in Bergamo, Italy to get my AMI Montessori Elementary teaching degree. Longest I’ve been without surfing in 15 years, so I’m jonesing pretty bad…Looking forward to surf (probably get smoked) in France over the Christmas break with friends. Be back to the states middle of July ready for next hurricane season

Preparing for the cold winter and hoping to gather the funds to take a trip out to visit everyone’s favorite Marshall, Morgan in Hawaii. Keeping busy surfing, fishing, hunting, and finishing up school at Rider University. Looking forward to getting back to warm days with frothing groms in the ocean from dawn to dusk after hopefully a few cold tubes this winter.

Aloha STS family and friends! I’ve been enjoying the Fall season with Mason & Mar here in New Jersey. Nice to be around family and friends to keep our hearts warm, even when the boots & gloves come out. Also, I’m very excited to announce a new Christmas tradition in the coming weeks…stay tuned!
