Here is a 1985 Flag interview gone sour when the tables are turned on some poor kid. This chump looks scared shitless, I know I would be. Rollins in top form.

The Note

Shredded some ankle slappers this morning on the 9'7" log. Everything was normal until I got out of the water and saw this note on my windshield:














Weird. Anyways, I enjoyed a beautiful sunrise.

Amid my usual procrastination while I should be writing papers I stumbled across this gem on the web. A young H Rollins pictured in his high school year book. Enjoy.

BL!SSS Magazine

Get your ass out there and grab the newest issue of BLI!SSS Magazine.

The featured artist is Randy Noborikawa. He is a good friend of EC and the artist who hand paints all of EC's art boards.

When asked by BL!SSS if Randy shaped the boards he gracefully replied: "Hell no, they are shaped by Eric Christenson, a good friend of mine. He is an amazing shaper. He keeps his stealth profile by riding bikes as much as he shapes surfboards, as depicted by his logo. Seriously, he's a master craftsman and he lets me design wacky tails."







































Randy and Eric have been preparing for an art show in early 2008 that will feature hand-shaped custom shred sleds of assorted shapes and sizes to serve as canvas' for Randy's unique artwork.

Get ready for some insane demonstrations of artistry and craftsmanship.

dear the great outdoors and the road,

the surf and destroy fools hope to see you again soon. i in particular hope to see you in the very near future.

fondly,
captmouth

p.s. to blackbirds everywhere, we mourn the death of a particularly great blackbird. (i'm sorry, i was protecting a surfboard and camp)

New Shred Sled

As winter marches on, I figured it was time for a new addition to the quiver. Something that felt wintery. Hence,




















With hopes of large surf in the forecast I went for a 6'3" step-up, pintail, mini-gun type thing, shaped by Dan Taylor. The spray job is a custom Patrick Bateman stencil I made in the garage.

Now I just need some solid NW swell...this round of swell didn't do much up here in N. OC. There was some size, but lacking shape. :(

****** Camping Trip

We got skunked.

Wetsand said it was going to be 20ft. Surfline said head high. It was chest high junk.

No worries, we found other stuff to do...




















Shoot Cans.














Watch the sunset.




















Wear lots of neoprene.

We'll be back. Hopefully we will score some waves during this over hyped swell.

Shaka Bra.

Surf Trip to ******

The Surf&Destroy posse is heading up to ****** this weekend for a surf trip.

The forecast...













isn't looking too hot, but we have been watching our fair share of Survivorman and Man vs. Wild to get pumped on new survival techniques.

As H.R. of Bad Brains once said, "Go to keep my PMA." So we will keep our fingers crossed and hope for some waves and cooperative wind.

Anyways, expect photos and videos to be posted next week. Along with some boardporn from doucheMcgGregor and danimal.

More along the lines of destroy...my first post

The following came from Guy de Maupassant's "The Horla", anyone thats been around my long drunk rants about the university system and it's bubble of followers will understand it's signifigance.


The populace is an ignorant herd, at times stupidly docile, at times fiercely rebellious. When it is told, “be merry”, it is merry. When it is told, “Go and fight your neighbor,” it goes to fight. When it is told, “vote for the Emperor,” it votes for the Emperor. Then it is told, “Vote for the republic,” and it votes for the Republic.
Those who lead it are also fools, but rather than obeying men, they obey principles, which can only be inane, barren, and false by the very fact that they are principles, that is to say, ideas thought to be certain and immutable in a world where one can be sure of nothing, since light and sound alike are but illusions.


board porn quiver shots soon to come.

New Additions

P-cakes picked up two new shred sleds from EC recently.

This here is a 9'2" Mod Sled. This board is one of EC's newest designs and this is the first one with a diamond tail. This board handles everything quite well: off the top, off the bottom, and most importantly, on the nose. I have heard through the grapevine that the Greenough 4A is the fin of choice on this model. P-cakes has chosen a 9" Good Karma fin by Joel Tudor Surfboards to suit his sliding pleasures.















Next, we have a 5'8" Phryed Fish. A staple in many quivers. For flyin' down the line and G-Force turns, look no further. EC has narrowed the tail a bit on the newer editions and they seem to be working insane, as always. Hand foiled plywood fins by EC.

PooPort

I surfed Orange St. this morning.


Now, I am sitting at my desk at work bleeding from the head. I have the bloody t-shirt and paper towels to prove it.

No stitches required, just some direct pressure.






















Yay for closeouts!!!
