"Basically, I want to weed out all of the fuckheads who were here just to socialize and be seen. I could come out and say I love everyone, but that’s bullshit. I despise phonies—they’re all made of papier mâché and I hope they fucking die.”
-Alexis Marshall



Funny. I feel the same way about surfin

John John is Good Good

Fuck Kolohe, it's all about John John Florence. I always knew this kid was better than me since he was born, but he is a real bad ass now. He surfs with insane confidence. He has a cool, smooth style punctuated by his charging attitude. In this clip he is surfing some big, whompy waves on the North Shore and making them his bitch. He skips around on these waves like he is surfing 4ft Lowers or something. John John is Good Good.

not surf related!

WHAT THE FUCK!

Air Jordy

I surfed with Jordy Smith this morning out at 56th in Newport. It was not very good and it was foggy. I was having fun on my little egg in the uncrowded peelers when he paddled around the jetty. I said to myself, "Oh shit, that is Jordy Smith." I immediately lost any notion that I might be "ripping." The dude is huge. I know he is quite a bit younger than me and I felt like a little grom next to him. Anyways, we exchanged a few words about the crappy conditions and that was that. Was he nice? Sure. He did two big airs right in my face on waves that were less than marginal. Then of course, some guy with a beer gut and a fun board paddles up and starts peeing all over the place like an excited puppy. Jordy looked annoyed and flattered at the same time. I know he is a celebrity of sorts, but actually surfing right next to the guy really put things into perspective. He is just a dude who happens to surf way better than you and I. I guess that old dude is the reason Jordy can be so successful with surfing, but come on. Chill out. I just don't get star-struck anymore. Especially not with pro surfers. This clip is of him doing a rad rodeo flip. I hate Red Bull and Kolohe Andino is a dork, but other than that, Jordy rips.

SUP in the OC

Been dogging on SUP lately. It just keeps rearing it's ugly head. I was glancing at an OC Weekly yesterday when I came across this little cartoon. All I hear in the media is how great SUP is. From the people I love and care about I hear SUP is lame. This cartoon depicts some of the frustration.
I would rather LDP over SUP any day.

This ones for you A.I.


"I've had my fair shares of hills and valleys, but my life's been radical and exciting. Stuff that kings would die to do. Straight up, fucken A. The lifestyle we've got and the life I've led since I was 17, I can't even tell my friends. I try and tell stories and they think I'm making it up or saw it in a fucking movie. Straight up. It's the life I wanted since I caught my first wave." Andy Irons, October 12, 2010.

offshore wind. all day. err day.

Blame Laird

This is a direct quote from Laird Hamilton in the new Surfline interview:

"Forty percent or more of the people standup paddling are women. And a lot of them don't even care about catching a wave; they just want to get a suntan and a great workout and be in the ocean. So at the end of the day I just think it's a phenomenally great thing."

Fuck you Laird.

Last Priest

Call me lazy but this record has eluded me for over three years, and today I finally got my clammy hands on it, thank you Meg Whitman (har har har).One time my pal Manny and I went to go see Last Priest and some other bands at the Che but got down there way too early so we went to Mexico. Bad idea, we missed all of the other bands we wanted to see, I didn't get this 7" and I got diarrhea. But we did make it back in time to see Last Priest end the show which made it all worthwhile. That was a good night.

No Last Priest videos up on red tube to share with you folks so here is a Find Him and Kill Him video, basically the same shit plus or minus a few dudes, enjoy!

SUPee

I can't remember if we made our stance clear on how we feel about SUP. So, without further delay I bring svrfandestroy's official statement on the matter: NO. Actually this is just my opinion. Don't want to speak for everyone, but come on. These T-shirt designs from Stand Up Paddle Surfing Magazine should shed a little light on my opinion.




Unfortunately, there are regular surfing shirts that are just as annoying and lame. Looks like they had someone's daughter design these on Mario Paint.
