Brett Barley and the Outer Banks’ most faithful have this place dialled. If you’ve never seen it in person, you almost can’t grasp how barreled these guys actually get. However, this video sure gives the viewer a good idea. Not so sure about the ska, wanna-be-punk music. Nor are we comfortable with the […]
Many people believe that print magazines should be free. Hell, some of us writing this may even agree with that statement. However, a free publication is not possible without advertisers. Advertising raises money for the printed publication in exchange for a business/company name being mentioned/shown inside the mag. It’s a pretty awesome and equal […]
Last night, Death Grips came to the Electric Factory in the great city of Philadelphia, PA. To a few people that know the band, I told them my plans… Enter the city, find the spot, and try not to die. However, I received no jealousy or ticket inquiries, only prayers for my safety, and an […]
I recently stumbled upon a 42-year-old surf film which documents a classic surf trip to one of our favorite locations: Cape Hatteras. According to Brian Tissot’s YouTube page, Dave Bence, Frank Dorenkamp, Pat Fulks and Tissot himself journeyed from Virginia to OBX and even further south to Florida in search of waves and pure freedom.

According to HillsNews.com, Russell Bierke was knocked unconscious while surfing in Port Campbell, Victoria yesterday. To make this every more wild, Kelly Slater was apparently the one to save Bierke. Among the crew surfing that day were Slater, Ross Clarke-Jones, Tom Carroll, Ryan Hipwood along with the 19-year old surfer from Ulladulla in NSW. In a freak […]
I’ve been in a bit of a rut lately when it comes to keeping up with surf media. And unfortunately, Jordy Smith’s newest short film was one of those pieces of media that didn’t find it’s way onto my computer screen. However, when I finally did click the play button, I stopped it five minutes […]
Music choice in the morning hours can either make or break one’s day. Sometimes you need tunes, sometimes you don’t wanna hear a thing. But if you are up, eating Cinnamon Toast Crunch and praying your half-drunken state doesn’t turn into a nasty hangover, (we all know it probably will) you might want to give this […]
I am freaking out right now. John John (yes, I still like calling him this) is a fucking freak. What the fuck man. He just hucks this gigantic rodeo-esque flip and casually slides away. He’s so nonchalant; it’s a style that cannot be replicated (don’t bring up Slater here I know he’s near-perfect too). I […]
“What is this that stands before me?” Black Sabbath and its’ members asked this question quite literally after Geezer Butler experienced a nightmare involving an apparition in his bedroom. However, the band had no idea about the future that stood before them as they took the creative track toward a new genre of music. Black […]
The term “perfect wave” has always been relative. Historically, surfers claim to have had perfect surf sessions after positioning themselves at the perfect surf break at the perfect time. Yet there has never been a standard when it comes to surfing. Perfection to one man could be totally different to another. However, today these long-standing […]
