The Inertia

You may remember when New Jersey went bonkers. It’s a pretty fickle place, wave-wise, but when it pumps, it pumps. It’s not an easy place to surf by any means — cold, windy, and shifty — but those who’ve got it wired find diamonds in the rough with relative ease. Justin Quintal, Pat Schmidt, Charles Mencel, Ryan Watters, and Tommy Ihnken fall in that category.

“Two days of pumping surf in the same week rarely happens in New Jersey,” wrote Summer Rental Studio on YouTube. “Justin Quintal and his buddy Ryan Watters flew in before the storm and hung out for the week. Classic strike mission with plenty of barrels and pork roll.”
