C Wach

Christian Wach just wrote a bit about almond on his blog, so take a look...

Christian is one of the most impressive all-around surfers you'll find anywhere, especially considering his age.  These 2 pictures above should provide enough evidence to support that claim. 

Thanks C Wach for the support.  Make sure to check him out at Sea Walk.

Rad New Friends

So, I've been looking forward to meeting the Grass is Greener crew for a while.  They came by to hang out today, and we chatted about everything from surfboard design to spirituality.  I had a blast getting to know these guys, and about the possibility of some collaborative stuff in the future.

These are some super talented dudes with some rad things going on.  Take a look...

Tyler Rose Swimwear

Our friends over at Tyler Rose Swimwear gave us some love on their blog...

I can't really speak regarding the comfort of a Tyler Rose bikini, because despite their pleas I refused to try one one... but they look great.

Take a look at their new blog:

Fashion for Life | Pepperdine University

Last night was the event at Pepperdine to raise money for St. Jude's Hospital.  Big thanks to all the girls for letting us come up and participate.

We had a blast preparing for, and during, the event.  We actually built 16 feet of fence and brought it as a backdrop for our booth.  Here are a few pictures of the night...
