LOVE IT OR HATE IT
Kirk Lazarus: Everybody knows you never go full retard. There's no middle ground on this film your a fan or not. We loved it.
1st ANNUAL G.I JOE RAT HUNT
***We have just finished our first annual G.I Joe Rat Hunt. Here's the prize winner, a whopping 1 1/2 pounder taken by Kernel Migilicutty and Sargent Coltonantor.
YOUTUBE OF THE DAY
***I inherited a twisted type of humor from my mom. She laughs when people fall down, so this clip is hilarious.
PHOTOS ALA DAVID GRAY
****Here's a few photos from our neighbor and friend David Gray and yes that is the highest high line a Gothic Dolphin has ever taken.
****Shhiitttaaakkkeeeeee..... Blacking out.
NEW BING ELEVATOR MODEL
***Nothing like the first wax job, especially went I later found out this board was blessed magic of a trillion babbas.
THE JONES BROS
***Mikala had a fresh batch of new Pang's and needed a place to get down on some board art. Crazy thing about his spray jobs is that he gets pre-made reusable vinyl sheets made in Bali that he travels with. I was impressed.
***Daniel is a cool cat and damn fine surfer. He was pumped on the Alaia action so I gave him this sick little 6'0 J. Wegs made me, so he can shred Rockies and ride them in their homeland.
****The Entourage. Big wave, T.Glase, Miklala, JVC, AK, Tall bud and DJ getting into some mid day Tecate time.
THE AVETT BROTHERS
***Rarely does a live show leave me speechless. Well, may I please introduce to you one of my new favorites the Avett Brothers. We saw there show last night with some friends, it was a folk/bluegrass rocking good time with a side of floor stomping mishmashyness. Enjoy

GOTHIC DOLPHINS STRIKE AGAIN
***Gothic Dolphins are down with Tom. Nolan Hall was there to capture the moment.
The California Book Project
***A couple years back I got a random call from too amigos rolling down the Californian Coast in VW bus. We decided to link up and surf Oceanside, which was a good call, because it was A+ conditions. Anyways, 2 years later Chris Burkard and Eric Soderquist have taken this trip and turned it into an amazing book project call, The California Surf Project. Looks like great book and they are touring it down the coast as we speak. Well done boys. www.thebookprojectca.com

WEGENER'S, CHADO & MATT
***This picture was taken @ the sacred-craft expo. Classic characters... Rosa is rocking one of our Collectic, Born to Fly long sleeves.
ROOTS
***Quite possibly my favorite surf photo. Absolutely spins my head out.
***Back side, on a door. I remember seeing these photos when I was a kid and being really intrigued by the trim, little did these guys know they were way ahead of the Alaia craze. Wonder if they still shred?
TENOR SAW
***Another all time Reggae album from a performer who's time on Earth was ended early. This is his only record made, with notable hits like "Roll Call" & "Pumpkin Belly". If you have a moment try to find Nitty Gritty's track called "who killed Tenor Saw".
RANDOM OLD SKETCH
***Here is the original pen & ink behind the Mother tee we created a few years back. Has to be top 5 Collectic designs of all time.
