Jordy Smith trains in Hawaii as U.S. surf parks expand, and high surf conditions approach coastal areas.

The surf scene in the United States is rapidly expanding with the recent openings of two surf parks: Revel Surf in Mesa, Arizona, and a new facility in Jacksonville, Florida. These parks are making surfing more accessible to enthusiasts far from the coast.

In Hawaii, a significant northwest swell is set to hit, prompting the National Weather Service to issue a High Surf Advisory for Kauai, Oahu, Molokai, and the north shores of Maui. Surf heights are expected to reach 15-25 feet on north shores and 12-20 feet on west shores, with conditions peaking Thursday night into Friday morning.

On the professional front, South African surfer Jordy Smith has been spotted training on the North Shore of Oahu, showcasing his impressive aerial maneuvers and powerful turns at Haleiwa. His sessions have included time with surfing legends Kelly Slater and John John Florence, highlighting the competitive spirit and camaraderie among top surfers.

In Florida, local surfer Dane Jefferys discussed the unique aspects of surfing in the Sunshine State on the `L8night With Choccy` podcast, sharing insights about his involvement with Billabong and the Florida Board Riders organization. Meanwhile, 805 Beer has announced an upcoming documentary titled `Making Waves`, which will profile professional surfer Lakey Peterson, set to release later this year.
