FAST TIMES
***Pulled out a classic VHS from the collection last night. We had a good time reconnecting. Tripped out by Sean Penn's career. Also is the guy in the upper left the same cat who co-stars in Milk? Looks like him. Here's a classic Spicoli quote from his surfing dream.
Well Stu I'll tell you, surfing's not a sport, it's a way of life, you know, a hobby. It's a way of looking at that wave and saying, "Hey bud, let's party!"
WOODSTOCK
***Few events in history have created this buzz. Some may say right time right place, I say thousands of positive people spiraling around Hendrix, The Dead, nature and free lovin good vibes might have had a lot to do with it as well.

RAD
***BMX, Slurpee's. Knee Scrapes.....
Movie Quote: God, what I wouldn't give to go ass-sliding with you right now.
JUMPED INTO THE GANG
***I got the board on the right in the third grade. Man I thought I was cool, took it to a friends house in the shady part of town and got jumped by this local gang. Never saw that board again.
JOHN PECK
***Was totally blown away by this old footage the other night. John Peck was making the most critical side slips and squat stance tubes at Pipe. Really impressive.
INSPIRATION
***This movie really inspired my creative endeavors when I was a teenager, had me drawing crown's on this that and the other. A worthy film if you haven't seen it.
SOLE SURFER
***Came across this hippy mad-scientist not to long ago that made some crazy stuff, like this witch figure powered by a crank who shreds the sole of an old shoe.
BRADDA HILTS WITH MACAREANA
***This is bradda Hilts, a.k.a Hilton Dawe. This photo was taken after a long night of dancing in Santiago Chile, these two were tearing it up on the dance floor and they brought the party to the beach the next morning as well. Hilton is top 5 funniest humans I've encountered.
SURFING DOLPHINS
Imagine if this could happen, fully wildest dream material. Made this wood-block piece for an upcoming show in Portugal.

GHOST RIDE THE WHIP
****Kopps told me about people in Oakland that Ghost ride the whip and dance on the roof's of there car. So as always I did a little research and this is hands down the best thing Ghost Riding has to offer.
BLIND MAN BLUES
***This photo was taken in downtown Santiago, Chile. This old man was letting it rip, and would blast a little electric robot when you dropped cash in his hat.
MANDALA MAN
***This cozy dude, periodically creates some radical patterns in the sand. He's super talented. I'm pretty sure this photo was of an installation he did for a proposal that we saw go down, she said yes.
CLASSIC TAG
***Has to be one of the raddest tags I've ever seen. Photo taken in front of the Sea Surfboards factory in Byron Bay, Australia.

LITTLE SURF MONKEY
***This stylee little Dude here is Jake Gray. Son of our homeboy David Gray. Kids looking like he's got some mad style in and out of the water. His Dad says the peace sign stance is called the Nixon, I'd assume the hands behind the back is the "Lopez". Needless to say we are stoked he's rocking Collectic gear. Keep ripping.
PRESENT POP
***Here's a few Posters that our buddy Pierre McBride laid out for T.Moe. Think there is one more show in Huntington and then a Free show at Patagonia Cardiff on the 10th, where the movie will be on sale for the first time. See you there.
SHOOT FOR THE STARS
***LAST summer I was tooling around Aus. w/ Peto and J.Curren. We stayed with a friend one night and I traded this piece for the accommodations.
ALL HAIL
***We've all been inspired by the wonderful doodles of this cosmic surf artist inner most limits of self expression.
