The Surfer Mag message board has some diamond in the rough threads. Here is one about some guy's solo Baja trip. Octafish goes to Hexico.














I am still in San Francisco, I will have some photos posted Saturday. Happy New Year.

Transilvanian Hunger

I drove around thismornin with my good friend Manny looking for some waves but they were few and far in between.
Notice the Pantera "Reinventing the Steel" license plate frame.
Nada!
We ended up in no man's land...
Knee high, cold and sunny, with nobody out pretty much makes for my ideal day. I came home and watched my car fail a smog test, and now I'm on my way out for round two on the low tide.

A. Knost

Everyone hates him on the SurferMag message board.

Exhibit A














It is pretty funny. Everytime he is brought up, people are either shitting their pants or creaming their jeans. Either way, undergarments are soiled and everyone is a winner.

Love him or hate him.

I dig his style and think he is a nice guy.

I am off like a prom dress. (to San Francisco)

A Treat for Danimal

enjoy...

Its been a while because my internet has been down. Heres some new modified Spitfire clASSics.

Skatin'

Too much shit in the water as of late. Troy and Trevor opting to stay dry.

The Mo-Dad

Joy to the world. A new sled is born.

Douche's new sled, in all it's glory. A blend between EC's Daddy-O (my personal favorite) and a Mod Sled.

9'4" 17"x23"x15.5"x3ish"

I bet you wish this was under your fuckin' tree today, huh? Santa doesn't B.T.S., that's EC's job.

Eric and his brother Chris with some inspiration.

New Sleds

Where Eagles Dare picked up a choice 5'7" Frodo bat tail quad. EC has made some adjustments since I got mine a year ago. Pulled in tail, pushed up wide point, different deck, and slight concave adjustments. Looks so fresh, and so clean. He will run some Speed Dialer Cutaways.



































P-cakes also picked up a 6'1" EC Ryder quad. Makes me want to get an actual shortboard, kinda. Not really. Looks sick though.



































DoucheMcGregor, WhereEaglesDare, and I picked up Douche's new 9'4" "Modad" this morning from Steve over at Aloha Glassing.

EC is all about B.T.S. Bringing the Sickness.

Herbie Fletcher

This guy is the fuckin' chief. Sure his surf videos have terrible soundtracks, too much water footage, and weird voice overs. But there is no denying that Herbie Fletcher left quite an impression on the surf community.

Here are two interviews with Herbie from Juice Magazine. 1 and 2

Some excepts:


Can you still get to the nose?
I fly on the nose. Are you kidding? At Backdoor. Nobody else can say that.

They can’t.
They don’t even want to attempt it. They go, “I can get in the tube, but not on the nose. No way.”

--------

Why were you anti-establishment then?
We were anti-establishment, because we were taking LSD. We were shunning the social and cultivating the elemental. It was hard to communicate with the straight people.

--------

Who was your main threat?
David Nuuhiwa was always number one. Everyone always tried to get away from David. He was hot. As the years went on, he was always number one and I was always number two. Nobody could beat David.

He was untouchable?
Yeah, he had so much style and so much grace. He was fast, and slinky like a snake. He didn't go to school, so he'd go surfing all the time.

Go Straight to Hell Boy

Six years ago today the world lost Joe Strummer. Without Joe and the Clash alot of the music that I cherish today definitely would not be here, and I'm sure the same goes for all of you out there. I trust everyone will be rocking out to the Clash all day today.

DEATH OR GLORY

Leroy "The Masochist"

I couldn't find the clip I wanted.

Psychologist: I see here they call you a masochist.

Leroy the Masochist: I like pain.

Psychologist: Can you be specific? What kind of pain do you like?

Leroy the Masochist: Any kind of pain.

Psychologist: Such as?

Leroy the Masochist: I like fights, I've dove through windows, I've eaten light bulbs, I like sharks, any kind of blood. If you gave me a gun, I'd shoot you in the face just to see what it looked like when the bullet hit.

Busey look-a-like:

















The Real Deal

















"Johnson! I got a vehicle!"

Shred

This makes me want to mutilate waves.

Sparks 2002-2008

This is just way to funny, had to post it.

"Sparks, the poor hipster's cocaine substitute, is no more."

Nose Slut

TJ's Harbour Nose Rider has been sitting in my garage for a quick minute. I am fixing a ding in the tail some barnyard put into it.

Anyways, the thing is killer. Nice outline, a shitload of tail kick, and a bunch of nose concave.

Basically designed to snort 8 balls of wave noserideage off the urinals in the men's room at Sutra Lounge in Costa Mesa while some roided out Affliction bro takes a shot of HGH in the ass after he slams some nameless chick in the stall next to you while some other dude is barfing vodka sodas out of his burning nostrils into the sink. Hey, it happens.

Hockey n' Jarritos

Went to the Kings v. Rangers game last night with a couple of dudes. Seeing as it was a New York game at least half of the crowd was rockin a Rangers jersey. Kings ended up losing in OT but it was a good game nonetheless. The highlight of the night came when some yuppie accidentally kicked over this ladies hot chocolate and did nothing about it, soon to be followed by said ladies fully tattooed, pierced, and pony-tailed husband tapping him on the shoulder and informing him that he had "five minutes to get my wife a new hot chocolate before I get thrown out of here for beating your ass." Needless to say I've never seen a gentlemen rush to get hot chocolate so fast in my life. The beverage was then immediately knocked over again by their son.

Before the game La$er and myself also made a trip to the 99 cent store and stocked up on Jarritos, crucifixion candles, and hand grippers. Very Crucial.

Spell Check - Xmas Edition

The Governator cuts funding to schools.

Now kids worship Satan and can't spell.

Satan +1

Thanks to Kim D. for sending this to "hate mail" @ surf.destroy@gmail.com

Greek Riots...

Now this doesn't have much to do with surfing, but talk about destroying. These are some of the most intense pictures I have seen in a while.

Don't worry. They are mannequins, not people.

Cloudkicker

Since the downfall of the SoCal hardcore/metal scene, there have been few bands that made the cut into my regular playlist . . So when a new "heavy" band makes it into my playlist the stars truly do have to be perfectly aligned. Over the past 2-3 years I have created a habit of listening to Cloudkicker on a pretty steady basis, shit gets me pumped in a psychedelic sort of way . . . if that makes any sense at all. But getting to the point Ben Sharp just released a new Cloudkicker EP; and like all good bands should he released it online for FREEEEEEEEE!!!!! The new ep is way crunchy. Also their debut full length is posted online for free too. As Bassist Beau said "Listen on headphones, loud, on drugs" hopefully Ben will finally land his plane so they can play another show. Go listen!

Day of Birth

Today is Where Eagles Dare's birthday.

Here is a birthday song from Fenriz.

Surf Knot

Last night at Shelter. Free T-cats. Old friends. New friends. Skating on a ramp/van by E. Trine. Music by the Mattson 2, who were actually pretty good, I was impressed. Art.

All in all it was pretty cool. I didn't stay for the movie though.

Cool print.

Wallpaper

Throughout middle school and high school, I had managed to cover every square inch of the walls in my room with the pages of Surfer, Surfing, Longboard Magazine, etc.

When I moved out to attend college. I ripped it all down. Huge sheets of paper. I would cover up old photos with new ones. Some parts of the wallpaper were probably 4 or 5 pages thick.

Here is one little section of the wall. Mostly adorned with FREE ads and photos of Joel Tudor.

I zoomed in on the photo and there are some Tom Wegener, Wingnut, and Beau Young photos up there too.

Top right is a photo of Pancho Sullivan laying down some rail on a garage sale board.

The very top is a poster of Noah Johnson at Waimea.

There is an "I <3 A's Burgers" bumper sticker, a birthday card from my little brother who was probably 5 or 6 at the time. It says "Daniel is surfing" on it.

Yes, the bottom right is an autographed photo of the whole BZ bodyboard team. (Douche, TJ, and I were the only one's who surfed. Everyone else was a dick dragger.)

TW

I think I might go to this tonight...anyone know if there is going to be free beer?

Pictures

Photos from the past few weeks.

The beeramid was about 100 beers, you can't tell but it is 8 deep or something.


















Dawn patrol last week before high tide madness this week.













Destroyed the Hull on the jetty, this is only half the carnage.













$1,700 worth of parking tickets. Not mine.













Look at all the pretty colors maaaaaaaan.














Douche McGregor stopped at Taco Bell on the way to Kyle's house. I snapped this in the parking lot before I ate a big box. 1 crunch wrap, 1 burrito supreme, 1 volcano taco, cinnamon twists, and a large drink.
