Episode #5 of Nelly's Magic Moments takes us to the beautiful island of Tahiti with Vans team riders Dane, Pat, and Tanner Gudauskas as well as Nate Yeomans, Manoa Drollet, and Tyler Smith.

Our newest senior photographer Zak Noyle just got home from slab-heavy Western Australia with some of his Hawaiian homeys—Evan Valeire, Ola Eleogram, Sean Moody, and a handful of international rippers.

Episode #3 of Nelly's Magic Moments takes us to the North Shore where Nelly takes us to Archy's house for dawn patrol (wake up Ford!), out to Pipe and Off The Wall on an macking eight-foot day, then over to Gavin Beschen's pad for some post-surf irie vibrations.

Our newest Senior Photographer Zak Noyle's update from the front lines of surfing at the Banzai Pipeline.

Presented by Vans, Nelly's Magic Moments is a monthly video clip that longtime TransWorld SURF Senior Photographer Dave "Nelly" Nelson shoots at the same time he's in the water shooting stills...a complicated setup, but worth it's weight in gold at the end of the day.

We here at TransWorld SURF are extremely proud to announce the addition of 23-year old Oahu native Zak Noyle to the TransWorld SURF Photo Team.
