Quiksilver board shorts go back to the future!

Have you ever seen Back to the Future when they take the old guy’s car into the past, screw up the future, go back to the past, then to the future, screw up the future again… well, this is sorta like that. Minus the trilogy or screwing up the future (Yikes!). I think [...]

Surf Donation for Troops in Iraq Ends up in Landfill

The San Diego City Beat (http://www.sdcitybeat.com/cms/story/detail/not_for_the_troops/7811/) has just caught wind that the humanitarian efforts of one San Diego local have been for naught.  Jeff Seymour, a Carlsbad resident has been running the “Magazines and Movies for the Troops” program from his house for almost three years, getting donations of thousands of magazines, dvds, dvd players, and [...]

On Advertising Surfer, or The Most Boring Article Ever

As tends to be the case with most great revelations, the idea for this article came to me while sitting on the toilet. I was flipping through Surfer and was struck by how many pages I had to flip through before I got to any meaningful content or articles. Everything else was advertisements. How many [...]

Turning the tables on Chris Coté of Transworld Surf…Just Silly Sh!t

Messy Jesse is a big fan of Chris Coté, chief sh!t disturber at Transworld Surf, fan of Alex Knost and, as seen here, father of the Stand-Up Paddlepaddling revolution. In this Q&A we turn the tables on Chris. Apologies to Chris for not being able to get the accent thingy é on the photo.

Longboard Magazine goes under

Longboard Magazine is no longer - it has gone the way of the dodo, perhaps to reappear in some other form. The phones are disconnected - phones for subscriptions and phones for selling ads, as well. This is not good news.
I’ve always partial to Logger Mag, and in particular the fact that they’ve been part of a longboarding revival ushered [...]

Aaron Cormican graces the cover of Eastern Surf Magazine

Aaron Cormican is on the cover of Eastern Surf Magazine. Aaron is known for boosting airs, and it comes as no surprise to anyone who recognizes his name to see this grab. There’s no need to even finish out the sequence, because of course he pulled it. Cormican does these things that make the rest [...]

Reef has a magazine?

So yeah, I’m not sure how I’ve managed to totally miss this, but apparently Reef has a magazine. And, just as shocking, apparently Marcella here has a face too? No I’m kidding, but if I took this picture away and then asked you 5 minutes from now what color hair she had, chances are you [...]

New surfing magazine!

There’s a new magazine out, and you can check out “theBombsurf” website by clicking here. It’s no Transworld or Surfer Magazine by any means, but it’s still new and in the process of putting things together. The best part is they will send you a free copy - all you pay is the post! They’ve [...]

RIP Surf Guide Magazine: Satirical Fables and Surfing Babies

This baby first caught my eye because he is totally rad. This is a sweet magazine cover. Sure, somebody getting shacked somewhere I’ll probably never go is awesome, too. But a baby in diapers with a surfboard–that makes me laugh and gets me pumped. Not to mention the retro love you feel from those golden [...]

Transworld Surf calls out Surfline etc. etc. - a Must Read

LMFAO - Justin Cote at Transworld Surf calls out Surfline, WaveWatch, Wetsand, AskMen.com, Hulu.com and every other surf forecasting site, here. And the dude is spot on.
Says Cote:
Offshore Buoys - They have no vested interest in creating hype and selling ads, they don’t track page views, time spent on site or any of that other [...]
