The bottom compartment fits all kinds of body and lens arrangements. Photo: RVCA Have you ever dreamed a piece of gear in your mind but resigned yourself to the assumption that it will never exist? “One day I’ll design it myself,” you think, as you try to make whatever you have work for your needs. I had searched for a camera backpack that could fit a water housing as well as at least one body and lens, but had started to define success as just finding a bag that was big enough to cram everything together into one compartment and still be able to yank the zipper shut....

Located along the southeastern region of the Santa Fe River in High Springs, Florida, lies 30,000 feet of cavernous passageways known as the Devil’s Spring System, an aquatic retreat for seasoned divers made up of three springs: the Ear, the Eye, and its 50-foot-long head, the Little Devil. Bali’s Newest Hot Spot Is Perfect for Surfers Read article From 25 feet below the surface of the Devil’s Ear, the foremost entrance where the system and the river meet, photographer Anai Colyer captured her fellow divers, Yanet Salgado, Matthew Fraser, Chris Henson, and Danny Henson, using a GoPro Hero 4 Silver [$400; amazon....

Ever since Kai Lenny introduced us to the magic of SUP foiling in 2016, the SUP world hasn’t been able to get enough. But while Lenny and other SUP pros make riding a foilboard look easy, learning to do it yourself presents a formidable challenge. Most first-timers spend more time face-planting and less time foiling during those early sessions. As with most things worth doing, learning to SUP foil takes practice....

Did you know Subaru once made a van? We didn’t know either, until we watched the latest offering from Petrolicious that dives into a rare 1970s 360 Van. Some might be surprised to learn that Subaru started as a post-World War II Japanese car manufacturer. Offering small, utilitarian options for the streets of Tokyo, the 360 had a few different iterations. The one Scott Coletti owns here is the Van version of the 360....

Aaron Rodgers had quite the adventurous offseason. The Green Bay Packers quarterback and two-time NFL MVP didn’t just spend time working out and training for football, he also took some time to swim with live sharks, travel to Africa and India, and also to meet the Dalai Lama. NFL Superstar Aaron Rodgers On Loving ‘Game of Thrones,’ and Playing As Long As … Read article Safe to say, that’s not the typical offseason from a pro quarterback....

You say you like spicy food. But when was the last time you cooked with, say, sumac? Or Urfa pepper? The fact is, there’s a whole universe of flavor that even hardcore home cooks seldom deploy. Lior Lev Sercarz, owner of the New York City spice shop La Boîte and spice consigliere to superstar chefs including Eric Ripert, aims to change that. His new cookbook, Mastering Spice, is packed with recipes for old classics elevated with unexpected spice tones....

Spinach with turkey bolognese is about as simple and cheap as a healthy dinner gets. In order to view the video, please allow Manage Cookies “The turkey sauce is a great source of protein that helps to build and maintain strong muscles while also burning fat,” says New York-based nutritionist Brigitte Zeitlin, R.D., owner of BZ Nutrition. “Plus, it’s a good source of the amino acid tryptophan, which helps boost our melatonin levels (the sleep hormone) helping you get the quality Z’s you need....

Bruce Lifrieri just wrapped up his 24th season as a full-time trainer for the New York Rangers, which means he’s spent almost a quarter century helping the team recover after grueling games, practices, and workouts so they can get back out on the ice the next day (and the next, and the next). And as a result, he’s pretty much an expert in how to get your body to bounce back after you push it to its limits....

I purchased the Osprey Farpoint shortly after quitting my job to travel Latin America without any real plans. Months later, I’m still traveling and still eternally grateful I purchased this backpack, and here’s why it’s a great piece of luggage. At 70 liters, it’s the same size as most medium-sized checked roller bags. However, you won’t have to check it because, well, it’s a backpack. What sets this apart from your typical backpacker’s bag is that functionally it works more like a suitcase thanks to the full-length clamshell zipper that allows you to fully open the bag....

The first time Ottawa resident Dave Campbell went down the weight-loss road was in 1995, when he dropped from 200 to 154lbs to get ready for his wedding. After that, he slowly but surely let himself go again. “On Sundays I’d deep-fry two bags of frozen french fries,” he says.“I had a lot of bad habits, but that was the worst.” By 2005, Campbell was back up to 203. “I wasn’t even 40 yet!...

Swell season has just begun at Nazaré, the famed break off the coast of Portugal that serves up legendary waves, and it looks like a record has already been broken. According to Surfline, 28-year-old French surfer Justine Dupont rode a massive wave, estimated to be 70 feet tall, last week. Although it hasn’t been certified by the World Surf League, that’s tall enough to set a new women’s big wave surf record, beating Maya Gabeira’s record of 68 feet set in 2018....

They say your swing gets better after a few fingers of the good stuff. Texas whiskey makers Firestone & Robertson will open their new distillery on November 10 in Fort Worth, and the land will feature a functioning 18-hole golf course. Owners Leonard Firestone and Troy Robertson detailed the massive new attraction to Robb Report, saying they want to take their artisanal operation and “build Texas into a global brand.”...

If bottles of whisky were like television, the GlenDronach 15 Year Old Revival would be a rare successful reboot. This is a delicious bottle of nostalgia that holds up to even our fondest memories. We’ll admit it: from time to time we can be a little hyperbolic when it comes to whisky. Great whisky will do that to you. Remember how excited everyone got about the return of Arrested Development? All we’re saying is that sometimes things can be a letdown....

On a snow-covered mountain in northeastern Utah, somewhere between the towns of Eden and Paradise, I stepped out of a snowcat, clicked into my skis, and soon discovered why those names might just be warranted. The first run of the day was about 1,200 vertical feet of almost impossibly perfect, fluffy, shin-deep powder, layered over an impressive variety of terrain. A small ridge led to a wide-open face, followed by some well-spaced trees, with other drainages punctuated by little facets and snow pillows on either side....

Rewind about 13 years and you’d find Tom Cullen at a complicated stage in his young acting career. “When I was 19, I ended up getting kicked out of drama school,” he says. A self-described rebel during his formative years, Cullen’s stint at the Central School of Speech and Drama wasn’t for nothing. In fact, it was where he met and became “really good friends” with Kit Harington (Game of Thrones’ Jon Snow) and Daniel West (South Riding and Morning After)....
