My name is Jake Burghart, and these are some notes on my new TV show, School of Surf, which started airing in December of 2009 on Mtv2. It's about two high school surf teams, one is from New Jersey, and the other lives in Malibu. The show is shot as a documentary, not reality TV. We follows the kids through a school year comparing and contrasting their lives, leading up to an end of the year showdown. East vs West

This just in from New Jersey. You don’t have to go to Hawaii to score epic barrels. In The Garden State it’s just about having patience through week long flat spells for the 1 day of pay off. Scoring barrels like this with just your friends around beats any surf trip you will ever take.

Rob, Chris, Keenan, and Santi scored some insane barrels after that blizzard that just tore up the east coast. I left New York the day before in my typical always-miss-the-epic-days fashion. This shit gives the snowy footage in episode 1 a serious run for it’s money. I just watched it 5 times and I’m freaking out.
