The Billabong XXL Surfing Awards Video

The Billabong XXL Awards are coming up and over the last year we scored some huge surf.  There are some familiar faces in the running; Greg Long, Shane Dorian, Dave Wassel, Reef McIntosh, Danny Fuller  and Shawn Dollar.  The Billabong XXL Awards are always a good time and a great reason for the surf community to get together and celebrate.  My money is on one of the bombs that came through at cloud break...

Huge Surf At Teahupoo Shot With The Phantom Camera (6 Pics)

Eddie would go but I wouldn't.  Holy shit! Teahupoo is macking. When the lip of the wave is as thick as the wave is high that's where I draw the line.  Give me 6 foot Trestles any day.  Great snuff surf video though. 

 

Lady Gaga x Supreme Photoshoot By Terry Richardson (10 Pics)

Downtown Manhattan staple apparel and hardgoods skate brand Supreme is teaming up with Lady Gaga and the genius of photographer Terry Richardson.  Their mission is to continue the hot photo ridiculousness that has become Supreme's reputation.  Lady Gaga actually looks fairly normal in these shots, no meat dress, no weird cocoon... She is nakes in a few shots and that wagon she's draggin doesn't look half bad.

MAKR My Deck

The uber low pro brand Makr that primarily specializes in ultra quality, limited edition handcrafted Bags, totes and wallets is making the fortuitous leap into skate hard-goods.  This custom handcrafted skate deck comes from the Makr studio in very limited numbers so good luck ever getting your grubby mitts on one.  Even though Makr says, "Please skate this, don't put this on your wall". I have a hard time fathoming that someone would slap trucks and grip on one of these bad boys and take it to the local mini ramp.  Notably because the deck is comprised of numbered leather risers, a hand stained bottom and takes several hours to construct.  In my opinion this deck is an integral addition for any home or office wall that wants to evade from the bland norm of drab art.

Casa Surf Project

Oh Laguna Beach you have spawned so many illustrious television shows and tumultuous cat fights over the years. What could you possibly have to offer us now besides marvelous art and a stupendous little beach community? What's that you say? Gloriously designed hotels, sculpted by some of the best in the Surf / Skate/ Fashion Industry... well now that is a pleasant surprise that even Kristin Cavallari and LC would have to agree on. Just the fact that I have referenced the MTV show Laguna Beach in my blog makes me extremely depressed and disheartened in the strength of my own soul. Uhhh... now my thoughts are slightly discombobulated and I feel inebriated to the point of becoming ill.




Back to the legitimate subject of this post, The Casa Surf Project! Riviera Magazine paired up with the La Casa del Camino Hotel and allowed 10 of Southern California's premier surf/skate/ fashion designers to go to town on several rooms in the hotel. The companies that were fortunate enough to participate are; Billabong, Roxy, Glaceau, Etnies, ...Lost, Quiksilver, L*Space, Rip Curl and Riviera Mag. What they created is surprisingly eloquent but at the same time a testament to the maturity and growth that the action sports community has undergone. 10 years ago if you gave ...Lost free reign on a hotel room you better hope that you have great insurance because something or someone would probably catch on fire and your hotel may or may not end up condemned. At very least you would be left with a powerful odor that stings the nostrils. Fast forward 10 year to today and you get a romantic villa inspired hotel room. To check out all of the great rooms hit up Casa Surf Project. The overall best part is that these rooms are available to anyone so maybe one day you can brag to your sewing circle about getting freaky naughty in the Billabong room.



May I politely raid your mini bar?
