BeachGrit is the anti-depressive surfing magazine from the creator of Stab (Derek Rielly) and the author of Welcome to Paradise Now Go to Hell (Chas Smith)
We at BeachGrit take surfing like we take life. As anti depressive! We believe that surfers are in sore need of new standards which will release him from his confusion and place him once again in fruitful communion with the depths of surfing. BeachGrit is loose but we lead with a libertine moral code. We challenge you not to be tempted by our fast-flowing suction! Whatever you think of us, of our writers, and of our swinging attitudes, we promise you’ll never be bored.
