Ripcurl, "Best boots I've ever had"

Well the runs continues. Steve is on day 13. His description of the surf this morning was lumpy bumpy and awesome!!! A more accurate description would be overhead and messy! It's gonna stay that way for the day but tomorrow is another story. Winds are going to go south west tonight and stay that way all day tomorrow. It should be fun and still have some size! Plan on fun leftovers Wednesday and Thursday. SURFING!!!!

Captain Ralph in his new rubber post day number 141!

If you don't know Ralph then you must live under a rock. He's surfing everyday for a YEAR straight in honor of the Molly Rowlee Fund. Pioneers and Ripcurl partnered up to get Ralph in some thicker rubber for the winter months. We got him in a 5/4 Insulator with some F-Bomb booties and mitts. He just came in and said "the suit is AWESOME!!!! Best boots I've ever had!!!" That statement holds some real weight coming from someone who has been surfing longer than I've been alive (28 years). If you need some new winter rubber yourself THINK RIPCURL!!!!!!!!!!!Today was day number 141 of 365 and he's doing it with a nasty chest cold. Check Ralph's page HERE and the Catch a Wave for MOLLY page HERE.

Just in are these new shoes from DC. These shoes look more skateable than anything I've seen from DC in a while. The Tonik and the Landau are both super slim and built for nothing but skating. No flash, no frills just good skate shoes. We also got the Matt Miller Match in. Black and Orange and built to last. DC is making a comeback into skateboardings core and this is a good start!

The One Love crew, a rival of the famed Pioneers soccer team, posted a short video of our match last week. It was one of the best games of the session. It was 0-0 up until the half but we let it slip away in the second half. I left with a bloody nose and a chip on my shoulder but that has faded away now. Super fun, thanks for the match boys, we're looking forward to the rematch! This time elbows down boys!

If anyones interested in joining the squad get in touch with me because we've got some openings! Next session starts January 2nd.

If you got the time this interview with 2010 S.O.T.Y. Leo is worth the read. Check it HERE.
