PHOTOGRAPHY BY MARK HUNTER (THE COBRASNAKE)
HERE AT SURFING MAGAZINE, WE PRETTY MUCH LIVE AT THE BEACH. If we
could, we’d make our office there (and sometimes we actually do). We know
this beautiful beach culture like that perfect-fitting swimsuit at the end of
a long summer, and we consider it our privilege to bring you in to the party.
For our annual SURFING Magazine Swimsuit Issue, we’re sticking to that
mission by presenting you with the hottest swimwear trends for 2015. This
magazine isn’t just about a bunch of images of beautiful women in bikinis
(although that never hurts). More importantly, it’s a style guide to help
usher you into the latest and greatest swim looks of this blossoming year.
After doing our homework and seeking out the top trends for 2015,
we noticed a pattern: Styles from the past kept reappearing, specifically
those classic looks from that magical age we like to call “The Golden Era
of Swim.” Fashion trends are constantly changing, but often these trends
are inspired by styles from past decades. In the world of swim, 2015 is
full of crop tops, one-pieces, high-waisted bottoms, crochet and teeny
bikinis — trends and styles that originated during the ‘60s and ‘70s. This
era was an important turning point in swimwear, as women were no
longer afraid to show some skin and bikinis became a fashion piece. Most
iconic swimwear designs were created during this time and its influences
continue to show through in the styles of today. Inside these pages we pay
homage to The Golden Era of Swim by bringing you the best of 2015.
But the beach has also changed a lot since the days of Gidget —
especially in the surf. Today, on a good day of waves in Southern California,
stylish surfer girls are a bountiful sight in the lineup. That’s why, on top
of our usual shoot with the models, we called up four of the world’s top
female surfers and invited them to Barbados to surf and model for a
Swimsuit Issue shoot of their own. Not only are these women amazing
athletes and great role models, they’re also just plain gorgeous, as you’ll
no doubt agree when you see the results of their shoot.
We want you to feel comfortable and look your best no matter where
you take your swimwear this year. Whether you want to lounge poolside
all day, hit the road with your friends, go for a surf or just go down to your
local spot for a beach day, we’ve hand-picked the finest swimsuits of 2015
for you. So dive in and find that next perfect bikini. Make this summer gold.

Alessa Quizon @alessaquizon
Quincy Davis @quincydavis
Sage Erickson@sageerickson
Bree Kleintop @breekleintop
Hailing from a long line of Hawaiian
wave riders, Alessa was destined to
become a great surfer. “I’ve been surfing
for 12 years,” she says. “My dad taught
me how to surf and it’s something that
has been in my family for generations.”
Alessa made her family proud by quali-
fying for the WSL women’s WCT in 2015
at the tender age of 21. She currently
lives in Dana Point, CA, but says her
favorite place on the planet to travel is
still back home to Hawaii.
FAVORITE BIKINI TO SURF IN:
“I love surfing in my Billabong bikinis.
They look flattering and are quite
functional.”
BILLABONG swimsuit (pictured above)
This trip was a bit of a homecoming for
Quincy. Like many hardcore East Coast
surfers, the 19-year-old from Montauk,
New York, has been visiting the Carib-
bean on surf trips for years. She comes
from a surfing family and has been
riding waves since age 7. While she
loved the waves in Barbados, she says
Tortola in the British Virgin Islands is her
favorite place on earth to visit. “I’ve gone
with my family since I was really little,”
says Quincy. “I went back recently and
got such fun waves!”
FAVORITE BIKINI TO SURF IN:
“The Volcom Pretty Wild Crop Top and
Pretty Wild Cheeky Bottoms. I love
the cut of the bottoms and the top is a
cross-back so it doesn’t pull on my neck
while I surf.”
VOLCOM swimsuit (pictured above)
Sage caught her first wave when she
was 10 at inside Sunset Beach on
Oahu’s North Shore. Today, at 24 years
young, she is one of the world’s top 17
women surfers competing on the WSL
women’s WCT. Of all the amazing surf
spots Sage has traveled to, she’s says
she’s never seen water bluer than on
our trip to Barbados. She’s also never
met such a fashionable man as our
swimsuit photographer. “The Cobras-
nake was amazing to shoot with,” says
Sage. “If only I could see his entire ward-
robe firsthand. The man’s got style!”
FAVORITE BIKINI TO SURF IN:
“I’ve been loving Hanalei Reponty’s new
wetsuit and swimwear line, Abysse.”
L*SPACE swimsuit (pictured above)
An East Coast-turned-California girl, Bree
is both a professional surfer and a profes-
sional model. “When I was 14, I started
modeling for my sponsors and from there
it just grew,” explains 20-year-old Bree. “I
was approached and signed by an agency
and I’m blessed to be able to still be surf-
ing and growing my career as a model. It’s
amazing to have the opportunity to meld
together these two passions of mine.”
Random fact: Bree never travels without
hand sanitizer. “You can’t be too careful
these days,” she says. “Too many germs
floating around out there.”
FAVORITE BIKINI TO SURF IN:
“I’m a fan of cheeky bikini bottoms so I
don’t get any funky tan lines, and I mix
and match a cute triangle top for secure
coverage while surfing.”
O’NEILL swimsuit (pictured above)
Alexis Ren@alexisreneg
Tereza Kačerová@terezakacerova
Trew Mullen@trewmullen
At just 18, Alexis can already count over
650,000 followers on Instagram. The
Santa Monica native was scouted to be a
model while shopping at a Brandy Mel-
ville store when she was just 13. Since
then, Alexis has worked shoots all over
the world, but says her trip to Mexico
for the SURFING Swimsuit Issue was
special for the friendships she made.
“We all became a family,” she says, “and
I’m forever grateful.”
FAVORITE BIKINI:
KIINI (pictured above)
Originally from the Czech Republic,
22-year-old Tereza claims she broke
into modeling when she won a contest
during her “awkward phase” seven
years ago. These days she splits her
time between her Czech homeland, L.A.
and wherever work takes her. Tereza
loves to travel and says she’ll go pretty
much “anywhere but Ibiza.” Tereza fell
in love with the local food while we were
in Mexico. Anytime we weren’t shooting
(and sometimes even while we were
shooting), she could be found munching
on tacos and sipping piña coladas on
the beach.
FAVORITE BIKINI:
Stone Fox Swim (pictured above)
Trew is an L.A. girl who’s living proof
that just because you’re home-schooled
doesn’t mean you’re socially awkward.
The fun-loving 21-year-old grew up
traveling between Pennsylvania, San
Jose and L.A. and remains besties with
her only home schooling classmate, her
sister. This was Trew’s first trip to the
Riviera Maya, and she claims the water
was the most perfect temperature she’s
ever swam in, “like someone had micro-
waved it.” Trew says she’s still waiting
for her breakout modeling moment: “My
dreams are big, so let’s hope it hasn’t
happened yet!”
FAVORITE BIKINI:
Cali Dreaming (pictured above)

TRAVEL TO...
BARBADOS: “LITTLE ENGLAND,” LOTS OF FUN
PLEASE, TELL ME MORE.
OUR PLE ASURE. HERE ARE SOME MORE FUN FACTS ABOUT BARBADOS:
With a mixed population of some 280,000 citizens, Barbadians (also known as “Bajans”)
are warm and hospitable people, most originating from West Africa and the United Kingdom.
Barbados enjoys a 98 percent literacy rate, and a very high percentage of the island’s
youth attain a college or university education.
You are not allowed to wear camouflage in Barbados.
English is the country’s official language. Unofficially, it’s Bajan Dialect.
The grapefruit originated in Barbados.
Barbados is one of the only Caribbean islands home to green monkeys. The green
monkey has lived on the island for more than 350 years.
The currency is the Barbadian dollar.
WHAT ELSE SHOULDN’T I MISS?
GL AD YOU ASKED. A FE W OF OUR FAVORI TE THINGS IN BARBADOS:
Delish Bajan hot sauce
Soup Bowl (not a local dish, but the island’s premier surf spot)
Friday night fish fry at Oistins
Boyceterous Boat Tour to see the sea tur tles and shipwreck (245.256.7979,
boyceterouscruises.com)
Mount Gay Rum Tour in Bridgetown (take a taxi!)
Champers Restaurant
WHERE DID YOU GUYS STAY?
We still can’t believe how good we had it at the
Sea Breeze Beach Hotel in Christ Church. The
place is tucked away on a secluded corner of
the island’s south coast and features a boutique
atmosphere with just 78 rooms, which means
we had two soft white-sand beaches practically
to ourselves (which makes a swimsuit shoot a
lot easier). With two swimming pools, three
delish restaurants and jaw-dropping views of
Oistins Bay, our every need was catered to by
this luxurious four-star, all-inclusive resort. And
with the vibrant nightlife of St. Lawrence Gap
just a short cab ride away, our evenings were
never boring. Safe to say, at the end of our stay,
none of our crew was ready to say goodbye to
the Sea Breeze.

MMMM, BARBADOS. SOUNDS WARM. ISN’T THAT WHERE RIHANNA’S FROM?
That’s right, take a bow. Barbados, a small, pear-shaped island about 250 miles northeast of Venezuela and the easternmost of the Caribbean
islands, is also home to sugary white-sand beaches (some are even pink!), clear blue water and holiday resorts. The island is renowned for having
the world’s best beach weather and the sublime goodness of Barbados rum punch. Known as “Little England” for its close cultural ties to its former
colonial mother, Barbados is classy but far from stuffy, and a whole lot sunnier than foggy London. Oh, and did we mention Barbados boasts some
of the most consistent surf in the Caribbean? Perfect reefs and Rihanna? Yep, we found love.

OUR PLEASURE. HERE ARE SOME MORE FUN FACTS ABOUT THE RIVIERA MAYA:
The Riviera Maya is a touristic 86-mile corridor, located on the northeast coast of the Yucatán
Peninsula in the state of Quintana Roo, Mexico, better known as the Mexican Caribbean.
The Great Maya Reef, stretching nearly 700 miles from the northern tip of the Yucatán
Peninsula down to Honduras, is the largest barrier reef in the Western Hemisphere and the
second-largest reef system in the world. There are many places to explore the reef system
along the Riviera Maya.
It is also home to several cenotes. What’s a cenote, you ask? It’s a natural swimming pool
that was created when a sinkhole collapsed over a subterranean river millions of years ago.
The water in cenotes is usually crystal-clear and makes a great place to swim and cool off
on a hot day.
The average temperature is 80° F with more than 240 days of sunshine, and rain is rare.
The official language is Spanish, but indigenous Mayan languages and English are also spoken.
WHAT ELSE SHOULDN’T I MISS?
GLAD YOU ASKED. A FEW OF OUR FAVORITE THINGS FROM THE RIVIERA MAYA:
Margaritas and fish tacos at Adelita Restaurant and Bar in Tulum
The many ceviche flavors in Tulum, especially at Café Luna
24-hour room service at the Hard Rock Hotel Riviera Maya
The white-sand beaches and warm water of the Caribbean Sea
Exploring the Mayan ruins of Tulum
WHERE DID YOU GUYS STAY?
Is there anything better than 24-hour room
service? Well, maybe 24-hour room service
overlooking a private white-sand beach with
exclusive snorkeling lagoons. Luckily our friends
at the Hard Rock Hotel Riviera Maya already made
that combination a reality, which made our stay
at their all-inclusive resort a truly unforgettable
Mexican experience. With 1,264 guest rooms, all
with their own hydro spa tub and full inclusive
minibar, multiple pools, a full gym and spa, nine
restaurants and eight bars and lounges on the
property, the Hard Rock Hotel Riviera Maya made
sure our team was living like Mayan royalty.

RIVIERAS ARE ALWAYS FUN. WHO’S MAYA?
The Maya were an ancient civilization that once thrived from southern Mexico through modern-day Belize and Guatemala, well before Columbus
showed up to the New World. Today the Maya’s awe-inspiring temples and pyramids remain at sites like Tulum, on the sparkling shores of the Riviera
Maya along the Caribbean Sea. These ancient worlds are yours to explore, and just a short drive from world-class hotels, fine dining and luxurious
beaches. From snorkeling with sea turtles to exploring archaeological sites to soaking up five-star resort hospitality, the Riviera Maya serves up
the best of both the ancient and modern worlds.

Mimi got her start as an assistant to major Hollywood
stylist Jessica Paster by helping style several celebs
for the red carpet, music videos and more. She has
also styled photo shoots for many surf industry brands.
Although she’s still new to the industry, Mimi has a
great work ethic and eye for style and we were beyond
pleased with her work on the shoot. Maxe, a stylist from
Vancouver, Canada, joined us at the last minute and
ended up being a huge help on the Mexico shoot assist-
ing Mimi. When your workday starts at 3:30 a.m. and
doesn’t end till 11:30 p.m., it’s nice to have an extra set
of professional eyes and hands.
It’s hard to believe this is the seventh SURFING Swim-
suit Issue for our good friend Jeannie (JJ Fresh). We are
so grateful she has stuck with us all these years. When
we gave her the dates for the 2015 shoot, Jeannie had
knee surgery scheduled during the same time. Instead
of telling us, she immediately postponed the surgery in
order to go on the shoot. In addition to being dedicated,
Jeannie’s also an amazingly talented makeup artist
whose priority is to always please her clients. Her as-
sistant and sidekick, Star, is also a much-loved member
of the team, as dedicated and talented as her boss and
always a pleasure to have on the shoots.
Kellie Cuttrell eats, sleeps and breathes swimsuits — in
fact, we’ve been told she could swim before she could
walk, and even took her very first steps while wearing a
bikini. So while Kellie is officially the sales and market-
ing coordinator for SURFING Magazine, she also found
time to forecast 2015’s hottest swim trends and then
outfit seven beautiful models in ‘em at some of the most
idyllic locations on earth. It’s not a stretch to say Kellie
was, quite literally, born for this.
We knew The Cobrasnake was the real deal when he called us from Europe and said he had to shoot an all-night rager
at a Bavarian castle, but would hop straight on an early morning flight and make it to Mexico before sunrise on our first
day of shooting. Some might call that cutting it too close. We call it epic. The Cobrasnake did not disappoint. In terms of
both nailing the shot and spreading the fun, he was venomously effective. Not that we ever had any doubts. In the past
year alone, Mark has traveled to more than 75 cities in 15 countries, shooting parties and events. He’s also brought his
keen eye to successful campaigns for Sony PlayStation, T-Mobile and Nike, among others. Here, in his own words, our
mythical lensman explains why “you’re nobody until you’ve been shot by The Cobrasnake.”
MARK HUNTER
(AKA “THE COBRASNAKE”)
@THECOBRASNAKE
SURFING: HOW AND WHEN DID MARK HUNTER
BECOME THE COBRASNAKE?
Mark “Cobrasnake” Hunter: At my bar mitzvah. I came in
as a boy, but I left as a man, holding a camera and pointing
it at a girl in a bikini. I don’t remember why the girl in the
bikini was at my bar mitzvah, but I got some amazing
photos and the legend of the Cobrasnake began.
WE HEAR YOU GOT YOUR START IN PHOTOGRAPHY
BY SHOOTING PARTY PHOTOS. TELL US ABOUT
YOUR JOURNEY.
My journey as a party photographer took me from
sneaking into Hollywood indie rock clubs as a teenager
to the VIP sections of the craziest parties all over the
world and everywhere in between. I probably personally
photographed at least 75 percent of all the fun that took
place in the world between 2004 and 2014.
BRIEFLY DESCRIBE THE WILDEST PARTY
YOU’VE DOCUMENTED.
It was on a secret island off the coast of Miami. I don’t
remember much, but there was an alligator wearing
sunglasses and a swimming pool in the shape of a hot
dog. Unfortunately there are no pictures because when I
downloaded them every photo appeared as a pure white
void. I talked to my tech guy about it and he said that the
super-strong party vibes at this party were so strong that
they changed the code in the digital files, like Neo did in
the Matrix.
HOW DID YOU FIND YOUR WAY TO FASHION
PHOTOGRAPHY AND EVENTUALLY REACH
ITS SUMMIT, SHOOTING THE SURFING MAG
SWIMSUIT ISSUE?
Fashion found me. I’ve always loved clothes and style and
eventually I just couldn’t turn down the offers that I was
getting from the biggest brands and hottest magazines
in the world. Once I had a foothold on fashion mountain, I
climbed my way straight to the top. When I got there I saw
you guys, riding a sick wave and partying with a bunch of
bikini babes.
IN ADDITION TO AMAZING PHOTOGRAPHY,
WHAT ELSE DOES THE COBRASNAKE DO?
When I’m not taking pictures I’m hiking with COBRA
FITNESS CLUB and feeding the world’s insatiable hunger
for fashion with my store, the Cobra Shop.
ANY ADVICE IF WE SIGN UP FOR ONE OF YOUR
FAMOUS FITNESS RUNS?
Just keep putting one foot in front of the other until you
look as sexy as you feel.
WHAT IS THE FUTURE OF SWIMSUITS?
Two words: even smaller.
WHAT IS THE FUTURE OF THE COBRASNAKE?
Spreading good vibes, drinking the finest juices and
pushing it to the limit!

FOR THE GIRL WHOSE VACATIONS ALWAYS SEEM TO FIND HER AT A TROPICAL SURF DESTINATION.
Like the trailblazing women surfers of the ‘60s who gracefully claimed their spot in the lineup at
places like Malibu, you’re equally at home out surfing with the boys or tanning on the beach with
your girls. You need a swimsuit that allows you to turn heads, whether riding the waves or strutting
confidently up the beach after a good session. Cute and tough, just like you.

FOR THE GIRL WHO’S SCHEDULED HERSELF A NO-SCHEDULE VACATION. You set aside
today for total relaxation. You want to do nothing but lie by the pool and sip on some
tropical drinks, maybe treat yourself to a full-body massage at the spa. Of course,
even if you’re doing “nothing,” you’re still going to look good while doing it. You put on
your favorite poolside swimsuit, some accessories and a little makeup, and instantly
feel like Farrah Fawcett at the Beverly Hills Hotel circa ‘74. So sit back, relax and
enjoy your downtime, maybe even turn off that phone of yours. A ‘70s golden goddess
needs her “me time.”

01. One of these four is not like the rest. Hint: It’s Alexis, on the right — she’s
the only natural blonde. 02. Corey Wilson, dreaming of the old days when
sunscreen didn’t come in a spray can. 03. What happens underwater should
probably stay underwater. The unfortunate thing is that nothing interesting ever
happens underwater. 04. Alexis Ren can have her granola bar and eat it too. 05.
Sharks or minnows? Who really cares. Alexis and Tereza. 06. Hey — you told
them to eat something. Alexis, Trew and a feast for two. 07. Sun protection never
looked so sexy. 08. Or maybe it has. 09. Klein (on) top of Bree. 10. Take that, guy
with the shaved chest. Photographer Mark “The Cobrasnake” Hunter wins one for
the furry people. 11. Sage Erickson and Quincy Davis, peace and definitely love.
12. Is this what winning the lottery feels like? Mark Hunter, tongue deep in a
cold and creamy fantasy. 13. Decent height, pretty nice form. Overall: 6.7. 14.
Shirts are nice and all , but we wish Sage Erickson would give us the girl right
off of her back. A L L P H O T O S B Y C O R E Y W I L S O N
