Surfing’s greatest rivalries redux

There’s nothing quite like the satisfaction of knowing that you may have inspired an article from one of the major surf companies.  Even more so, when they take said article and pepper it all over the interweb, to make sure it gets picked up by virtually every surfing website and surfing forum out there.  What’s greater still is when the article you write a few months back gets mimicked by Transworld Surf. 

Okay, so the two articles are not completely the same, but I do sleep better at night thinking that Transworld editor, Chris Coté hangs on my every word and uses my articles as inspiration for his own.  Love you Coté, despite the fact that your surf porn magazine (which I just can’t get enough of) has a sexually ambiguous name (Transworld?  I though that was a club in West Hollywood).  Keep up the good work Coté.

Enjoy the DailyStoke version from a few months back:
