Waves of Awesomness!!!


The Olympic wave of awesomness continues. Hanna Teter claims the Silver and Kelly Clark the Bronze. Four out of six Olympic halfpipe medals is pretty damn good! Dare I say we are a Dynasty???? So by looking at the cams today it is easy to see it'd flat, flat, flat. I was hoping for some little longboard waves this weekend but it's not looking to good. There is however a good looking storm forecasted for the middle of next week! Waves and snow sound good to me, bring it on!!!

The Lizard King, maybe you know him, maybe you don't. He is a skater, a ripper in fact, and he is making his name know lately. He does it all. Backside 180 one footers down Wallenberg, mega ramp, Battle commander at the Berrics, and he designs some pretty damn good clothing too. He rocks KREW clothing and we just got a fresh batch in. Really good denim, tees, hats, and button downs. Check the gear and videos below. If you wanna skate like the Lizard the fist step is to look like the Lizard! All Hail The Lizard King!!!







If you missed it, last week was the Mavericks Big Wave Contest and it went down in some XXL surf. Steve and I watched it live all day live on the webcast (the internet is so awesome) and if you want to you can watch the rebroadcast HERE. The waves easily had some 40 ft faces on the sets. There ended up being a ton of spectators on the beach to watch the event live and as the tide came up a "rouge wave (of awesomness)" came in and pretty much took them all out. Broken legs and ankles, mangled scaffolding, and lots of wet spectators was all that was left once the water dissapated. As always there were lots of cameras there to catch all the carnage and thanks to the internet I have it here for your viewing pleasure! Enjoy!



Plan on some surf for next week!
