Costa Rica

Back in '05, Douche, Dude.Economy, myself, and a few others went to Costa Rica to surf/party. This was my back on the 3rd day thanks to the mosquitos.

Mute this, But Watch this!

Longboards CAN be surfed "progressively" and smoothly. Check this opening footage of joel at Playa Hermosa, Costa Rica, which is certainly not an ideal log wave. Most performance longboading makes me squirm with unease for the surfer himself, but there are exceptions to the case. Joel in Contest style mode (as seen in clip) and surfers like Dodger Kremel can blend it and blend it well. Oh and that looks like a timmy patterson shaped single fin he's riding?
Side note- Honestly what's the deal with shit soundtracks accompanying nearly all longboarding clips and movies? The day a longboard movie (svrfandestroy produced?) comes out with a soundtrack as good as a snowboard or skate flick, will be the day I find religion.
