Art Of Surfing Pics

JJR has posted some pics of the Art Of Surfing Event on the erBB. We went for a bit, but left feeling like we’d just visited a surfshop, only outside. Maybe that’s cause we missed the surfing and other events. Regardless, it didn’t really have the organic feeling of a Fish Fry or AB3.

Seems that Joel Tudor's name got trademarked in Japan by some company, so now he's having to sell his boards under a new label. Imagine not being able to use the name you spent 30 years of surfing building?

The Rip Curl Pro starts today. In comparison to the Billabong Pro JBAY site which was super fast and easy to use, the Rip Curl Pro site is a massive failure. Security cert to view video? Popup warnings and buffering? Please. I bet a review of user engagement statistics from both sites would make Rip Curl execs cry.

Sequence images of a shark doing a drive by on a New Smyrna Beach surfer. Wild. The natural law of the ocean is, if it's bigger than you, it can eat you. So why is a smaller shark so bold about cruising up to a larger animal? If there were more natural prey, would this encounter have happened?
