Loaded Barrels by Dave Natal

Incredible characters and dark drama makes Loaded Barrels by Dave Natal more captivating than crack. Dive in and join surfers, cowboys, fishermen and drug dealers in an inescapable whirlpool of desire and destruction.

Loaded Barrels is inspired by true stories of California’s Hollister and Bixby Ranches from the 1970s. When hardcore surfers were lured onto private land by perfect empty waves. But the risks were high, getting caught could result in death by cowboy!

These stories are told around beach fires across the surfing world. Thanks to Dave Natal, they’re now available to enjoy in one epic novel.

Incredible characters

Surfers vs cowboys


The Loaded Barrels cast reads like a Hollywood movie:

Lonnie – our anti-hero, a young rebellious surfer from a broken home with pro surfing potential.

Stoker – a wild fisherman with a wandering eye, speaks in pirate prose and has surprising connections.

Sally – an alluring cowgirl, nature lover and videographer, with the key to dreams and a goodness to be guarded.

Shaun – the glue that binds them all together. Lonnie’s older brother, surfer, fisherman, and the father figure his little brother needs.

Cowboys – tobacco chewing, cow wrangling, tough living, surfer hating, hard men. And lots of them.

Drug dealers – who hate everyone.

Dark dramas

Forbidden surf spots


Warning this book contains scenes of a violent, sexual and dangerously exciting nature.

Forbidden surf spots – amazing waves, crowd free, nothing there except nature, but trespassers will be severely punished.

Broken homes – dysfunctional families, missing parents, and unexpected responsibilities will keep you intrigued.

Drugs and gangs – everyone has their gang: cowboys, surfers, fishermen, criminals and Christians, but drugs can make things messy.

Unexpected love – sorry I don’t kiss and tell 😉

Let’s just say like all good Hollywood movies, there’s a happy ending.
