New Rusty Noserider!!!

Recently, I was over at the Rusty factory where I picked up my new 10' Rusty noserider. Hoy Runnels and I, discussed what I wanted in a noserider. With summer coming I mentioned that I wanted a board that I can noseride small summer point breaks on as well as smaller mushy surf. The board has a slight entry concave into a displacement bottom with 50/50 knify rails. Its thin and wide, with special tail rockers. This board works best between 9'6" and 10'2" and is made for waves chest high and below. Here is a little video of some small waves in La Jolla, CA.

Sticky Bumps- Recycled deck pads

I have recently been using Sticky Bumps Recycled Deck Pads on all my new Rusty boards.



Its made out of recycled foam, and the traction works great. The cut is a little sharper then the last pads, which I have found to have a better grip. For the last 3 months I have been testing these out and have grown to like them more then the original pads.


The new deck pads along with Day Glo wax is the ultimate combination for competitive surfing. Because of the color added to the Day Glo wax, it created a magical combination that can not be compared to anything on the market...

Suprise ...Dickies

So, that last box that came off the UPS truck today...it just happened to be my newest package from Dickies. YES!!!



After I got at least one bike put together. (and it looked very nice, if I do say so myself) I was able to focus on seeing what Dickies sent me. Inside there was awesome Flannel Jackets- very San Diego style. There was also slim cut jeans and a few other things.



Dickies is going to great lengths to get this stuff in local surf shops near you! More updates to come...

Thanks Dickies!!!

Primo Beer

It's official...I am an ambassador for Primo Beer.




For those of you unfamiliar with this awesome brew...here is a little Primo Beer 101...

1897, is when Primo Beer was first started in Hawaii. Its been a very adventurous 110+ years, but the traditions and the Aloha spirit behind Primo Beer are still just as vibrant as they were back then. Committed to Hawaii, Primo Beer uses local Hawaiian Cane Sugar in the recipe. They are also involved in the Outrigger Duke Kahanamoku Foundation, helping to raise money for athletic scholarships.

I am so stoked to be a part of Primo Beer. Be on the look out for more updates!!

FSA/Gravity...its Christmas in March!!

I haven't been this excited for a UPS truck to get here since...well, it's been a while.

I get outside to the truck and he hands me a box, then another, then another, then another...and then one more! (See my next blog about the last box)



I practically trip over the dogs getting everything inside so I can get it all opened. The only thing missing from this moment is the egg nog. Wheel Sets, Cranks, pedals, grips, and more goodies to get my bikes in proper order. I am stoked to get everything on and running. Looks like I'll be hitting the trails this week.

Thanks Max and everyone over at FSA/Gravity. pictures to follow!
