Southern Edge Studios presents another Fernandina Beach surf film: WHAT’S YOUR FLAVOR: Wave Riders of North Florida. Brian, Joe, and elder statesman Je Spence spark the conversation - what board truly works best for North Florida waves? From that question, the journey begins. Brian Bowen sets out to interview some of North Florida’s top shapers, including ROZO, Mike Whisnant, Greg Geiselman, Tony Iannorone, Pedro Rodriguez, Mike Nichols, and Justin Laird. As part of the film, Justin shapes a custom retro noserider specifically for Brian. Following the interviews, Brian premieres the edited surf film accompanied by a live score performance from @gilberto77band . Each featured shaper has surfers riding their boards throughout the film, bringing their craftsmanship to life on screen. Drop us your feedback, and stay tuned for the release of the Panama film, which premiered December 18, 2025, at @TIR1878 . @cleanoceansurfboards @WavyBlendz2 @cajunholland2830 @noahpoteat404 ​

After the Erin swell run in August, September kicked off the month with a little flat spell. Then for a hot minute, we thought we had another chance for an Erin repeat. But hell no, the weather man is always freaking wrong! We got a little swell toward the end of the month, blessed with a heavy helping of onshore, north easterly winds. All in all, September was one for the books! Any day is a great days when there's waves!

Erin was the PERFECT storm for our little corner or the world. The storm sat a comfortable distance off the eastern seaboard of the US and a 6 day swell bender ensued. Check out Part 1 of the edit. It was an unforgettable experience, especially for local Aiden flynn. If you see you clip and you want to by, just drop me a message on Instagram @SouthernEdgeStudios , $10 per clip. Stay tuned for the following segments of our Erin Swell Run series.
