This is the follow up to my earlier mention of Ben Bourgeois’s 2 covers. Ben gets the cover of the July issue of Surfing Magazine.

Clay Marzo in Rolling Stones

April 1st, 2010

Most of us that grew up surfing had dreamed about one or more of these things; getting a picture in the surf mags, having a cool sponsor, getting paid to surf, going on rad trip or even having a part in a surf movie. Most people would be forever happy by making the Surfer Magazine Hot 100 #2 spot, like Clay recently did but Clay Marzo has taken it to another level.

Clay just got an 8 page story in the April issue of Rolling Stone. Yup Rolling Stone magazine! Now if that isn’t frickin cool you must be from Mars. I am calling out “rock star” status here for Clay.

I really am not a big believer in too much text on blogs. I think most of us like pictures and videos. Visual stimulation seems to have the biggest impact but since this is so rad I am going to put the whole article on this, so if you like to read here it is for free.

Clay you’re the man and thanks for being on the team!

Jeremy McGrath/Tommy Searle photo shoot

March 30th, 2010

We made our way out to Jeremy McGrath’s private ranch last week for a day of photos and video footage. The ranch is located in southern California about an hour off the coast of San Diego in the middle of nowhere! Jeremy has some rad jumps out there and we took full advantage of him throwing some classic whips for the shoot. Tommy Searle also came out and threw down some style for the cameras.  Check the sample photos!!
