Corona Noseriding Invitational
I haven't really seen many photos or anything about the noseriding contest during the US Open.
I checked Worm's blog to discover who won:
1. Kevin Connelly
2. Joel Tudor
3. Harrison Roach
4. Herbie Fletcher
I also was able to get some photos from Dana, who filmed the event.
I had originally predicted that Christian Wach would win after seeing the completely fucked amount of tip time he spent on the nose at Noosa. But HB is far from built for noseriding as that wave is.
Kevin Connelly ended up with the most amount of tip time. I always enjoyed his sections in the the shitty longboard videos of the late 90's, early 00's (you know, Terry Simms, terrible soundtracks, too much water footage, too much Malibu, etc). Since then, I have not really heard much of him at all. Here he speaks to nose riding in particular...and proceeds to hang some serious ten and lay down some buttery ass drop knees.
TJ used to have a pretty sweet Kevin Connelly nose rider. It was prolly about 9'6" with a bright yellow tint and a pin tail. This was back when he had the "Doodie," a late 80's Chevy station wagon. You guessed it, Brown paint job, brown leather interior, and Camaro rims.
Anyways, here are the photos.

176millioninches

Here is a new blog we have linked up to.
176millioninches
Our buddy Steve, who has transplanted to New York, and our friend Logan, "The Bonus Jonas," have started this thing up.
I don't really know what it is, or how to explain it...I would have to say the same thing about Steve and Logan as well. A rare breed who you just can't seem to put your finger on. They would tie for the "Most interesting man in the world" award in my book.
Well if you don't like it
you can fuck off. Oh yeaaah. yeaaaaah.

Kookbox Twin Pin


I got to ride this thing about two weeks ago in waist high mushburgers. At 5'10" x pretty thick x trashcan lid nose x hard edged pin, the thing flies!
My buddy Dana was able to borrow it for a bit and was kind enough to let me take it for a spin. I really liked the hold yet controlled drift through the turns and the speed down the line. It floated me a ton and paddled like a much bigger board.
If I had to describe it like a haircut, it would be the mullet. Voluptuous and floaty up front with some party in the back. The pin was unique in that it almost felt like a stabilizer fin for some in the pocket carves.
The fins were cool too. Not your run of the mill keels. A bit more swept back with a lot less surface area. Kept it loose without sacrificing too much drive.

You may remember Mr.Lightners post a few months back documenting the new bad ass way to spell cunt... KUNT. Lightner snapped a "kunt" tag photo somewhere on an overhang in LA. Well I spotted this a few weeks ago on some shitty ass curb near the Trump hotel in Las Vegas.

My friend kyle mcgeary (kookkyle) got a thing on surfline "when groms attack HB" or some shit. kyle looks like ryan sheckler and on occasion has been chased down the beach by pre-teens. seriously. check it out


I think Tudor's deck just got one Upped -
Behold the sneak a toke madrid skate. Hollow kingpin for the bowl, with a suck in hole on the tail, and a carb on the nose. Yup.

Are you ready...
So this video was posted by some guy named Jon. He runs a fitness training camp that specializes in teaching kooks how to SUP so they can terrorize congested lineups up and down the coast! All while working out their core and abdominals. He has an E-book on SUP training for only $19.95!
I don't come you your gym and shit on your treadmills so quit fucking with our beach!
Thanks for the tip Worm!

FOF's
Not sure if you know what a FOF is...in my experience they are usually the buddy of a buddy that attends your party and ends up trying to steal something and getting his ass kicked in the front yard (Yes, that happened this weekend).
Anyways, Liam's FOF buddy Kyle Green painted this thing. So far he seems legit.
Yes, sharks are rad as fuck. They would be radder if they started chomping kooks.

Dino Jr. x2
To answer God's (Mr. Lightner's) question, as of this morning i do have the other dinosaur jr board. Courtesy of ebay. The thing looks really fun to ride, but it will be on my wall for quite a while. And yes, that is a 2pac record i'm listening too.
