Niko Traubman works as a professional model, but when he's not on the runways you can often find him ripping through the waves at Seaside. He has a high-flying, acrobatic style of surfing that is fun to watch and photograph. This shot is part of a series I'm doing on the surfing action at Seaside, Cardiff State Beach, CA.
