5. Mistral's Jenny Lee Interview
Heat Score - 70
Mistral International team rider, Jenny Lee, blew up the web last week with her latest edit that showcased her ripping around Waikiki. Although she's only been on the SUP scene a few years now, her background in competitive longboarding and watersports has helped her make waves on both the surf and racing scene. We were lucky enough to catch up with her this week on Skype to find out more about her road to stand up paddling, her favorite travel destinations and what she's riding at the moment.

4. 5 Reasons To Be a SUP PUP
Heat Score - 72
Hello human friends, my name is Kona! I am one and a half years old and I want to share with you why being a pup is the best ever. I don’t have to work or clean like my humans do - instead I get to play, eat treats left under the table and take lots and lots of naps! But one of my most favorite reasons it’s awesome to be me is because my humans take me out on a SUP, that is, a Stand Up Paddle board!
Check out Kona's top 5 reasons to be a SUP Pup.
3. Naish Desert Waves Video
Heat Score - 75
Take a trip to Abu Dhabi with team Naish and come tear the Wadi Adventure wave pool apart, one sculpted ramp at a time. Kail Lenny, Kody Kerbox, Noa Ginella, Beau Nixon and Casper Steinfath put on a clinic for progressive surfing in one of the most surreal destinations in the world.

2. Sharks In Florida
Heat Score - 78
Two weeks ago we shared footage of a Great White meandering through a crowded lineup in Southern California. That blew our minds a little bit. Now more recently, over Memorial Day Weekend, Steve Anest was out at New Smyrna Inlet with his wife when a group of sharks came to join the action. Granted it wasn't Great Whites, but there were about a dozen cartilaginous brethren weaving in-between the surfers and paddlers without much of a fuss.
1. May Photo Of The Month
Heat Score - 81
We're pleased to congratulate Fadia Alli Bascom (photographed by Shadow Van Houten) on her winning photo this month, entitled 'Mermaid in the Reflection'. The caption reads, "This picture was taken off of Shelter Island in San Diego. It was taken at the right time in the right place. It was luck that made it happen. Peace." Well done!
