8’6 Gerry Lopez Lightning Bolt “El Nino Storm Rider” @lightningboltsurfboards @boardroomshow Best in Show. This El Niño Storm Rider brings together more than five decades of Gerry Lopez’s experience designing surfboards for some of the most powerful waves on the planet with a modern approach to the big-wave gun. The Art I did was inspired by the same forces for which this board was created. EL NINO. Storms.Energy.Wind.Water.Lightning! The clouds converge through the board to form the unmistakable Lightning Bolt - the symbol Gerry Lopez helped make one of the most iconic marks in surfing. The Bolt appears to split the atmosphere,illuminating the sky in yellow,orange and red. I wanted the relationship between my art and Gerry’s design to converge with the storm that creates the wave,the wave energy and the board that harness that energy. There is also a special piece of surfing history within this board. Glen DeWitt of @rainbowfins laid up the Fiberglass panel from which its fin would be made shortly before his passing.Glen spent decades creating fins and contributing his craftsmanship to surfboard building.That final piece of his work now lives within the El Niño Storm Rider. In loving memory of Glen DeWitt and his legacy. The finished board represents the hands of experience of several craftsman,completed through the glasswork of Jim Hodges at Oceanworks Fiberglassing. So honored to be part of this epic project! Main Photo: Grant Ellis 03 Oct 2026

#ontheshelf “Surfer Magazine 1960–2020” by @grantellis1 . Published by @rizzolibooks This is one of those books that almost explains by itself why I started collecting surf books and magazines in the first place. Six decades of @surfer_magazine gathered in one volume: covers, photography, stories and personalities that helped shape the culture of surfing from 1960 to 2020. Curated by Grant Ellis, longtime photo editor of Surfer, it feels less like a simple retrospective and more like a visual archive of the magazine that documented surfing for generations. Definitely one I want to come back to with a proper post and a closer look inside. #surfbookcollector #surfermagazine #surfculture #surfbooks 25 Sep 2026

Honored as always to grace the pages of our bible @surfersjournal Thank you @grantellis1 for taking a gamble on a mission to the motherland. Photos and words by @grantellis1 Huge thank you to my sponsors for allowing me the chance to take these trips I’ve dreamed about since I was a kid. @oneillusa @pacificwave @otiseyewear 15 Sep 2026

“There’s a lot that goes into the planning of this type of strike, even beyond timing a long-range swell across oceans and continents,” TSJ photo editor Grant Ellis (@grantellis1) writes in our current issue. “There are the tangibles, like long flights, long drives, customs, house and car rentals, uncooperating elements, the chance that the swell models might just be a tease, equipment failures, and contending with locals who’ve been waiting all year for their home break to turn on. Then there are the intangibles—trusting your gut when it comes time to pull the trigger or not, spending your time and energy and bankroll on a less-than-sure chance at the waves of a lifetime, and, finally, committing to that wave of a lifetime as it jacks up and the bottom drops out. (If you don’t, it’s unlikely anyone will waste another good one on you.)” Luckily for Ellis, both the tangibles and intangibles aligned in Ireland for him, filmmaker Perry Gershkow (@perrygershkow), and a global cast of slab chasers. Read Ellis’ full story and photo essay, “Four Days in Hibernia: A transatlantic gamble in Ireland,” in TSJ 35.4. Also, stay tuned for Gershkow’s feature film, “Keeping in the Shadows.” Water cinematography by João Tudella (@jtudella). 10 Sep 2026

RORY RUSSELL × LIGHTNING BOLT PIPELINERS ⚡️🌈 What an honor to paint this collection of Rory Russell Lightning Bolt Pipeliners. Rory is an iconic Pipeline Master and one of the legendary Lightning Bolt chargers — winning two Pipeline Masters titles, with two runner-up finishes, back-to-back through the 1970s. When I personally think of “The Dog,” I think of a hurricane — powerful, intense and unpredictable, yet there is always a calm in the center of the storm. When I create these compositions on iconic Lightning Bolts, I’m always thinking not only about the legendary surfer and craftsman behind the board, but also about where lightning comes from — the storm. Storms bring power and intensity, but they also bring incredible beauty. You can’t have rainbows without rain. 🌈⚡️ These Rory Russell Pipeliners embody both of our passions — Rory’s connection to Pipeline and my passion for creating art through color, clouds, storms, rainbows and light. I’m incredibly honored to paint Rory’s legendary surfboards and to work alongside such interesting and talented people. Tommy Daniels did an incredible job glassing these boards, with the utmost attention to every detail. Every one of these Pipeliners is now proudly owned by collectors, where they can be enjoyed as both surfboards and works of art. I couldn’t be more proud of this collection. 📸 Photo by Grant Ellis — @grantellis1 🎨 Hand airbrushed by Sean Mattison Rory Russell × Lightning Bolt × Pipeline × Art 28 Aug 2026
