If you switch the first letter of my last name with the first letter of my first name, it’s the same.

So does he hate that? It’s pretty accurrate, as the dude does get mobbed, at least in Japan.

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?

Fun little promo for Valla surfboards by Nathan Oldfield. I don't know why more US shapers don't do little gigs like this.

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.

LA Times article consisting of young pros whining about how tough touring is. It's just about as insipid as it sounds.

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?
