Bird's eye view of Santa Cruz. Wish they waited for the South to fill-in...

"I always wanted to do this during a swell..."

Angela Madsen has shown no fear in the days approaching her impending solo row across the Pacific. When it comes to the dangers of the 2,300-mile trip scheduled to begin Saturday from the Santa Cruz Small Craft Harbor and end about 80 days later in Hawaii, she recounts them like she's reading off her grocery list.

The WaveGarden is back with a full scale wave machine that produces perfect waves which break for more than 700 feet with perfect shape and the opportunity to get barreled!
