The boys over at Pacifica have a pretty tight new website & a new ep called “the process of illumination”. My fave track is “we consider everything“. If Paramore and Circa Survive Fucked you would have Pacifica. You can download it for free {here}
Preview video fashion shoot by Daeja Fallas for the new issue of Contrast. Which is coming out soon… Real soon.
These skate decks are exclusively available at APB and there are only 35 in the entire world.
Fitted and APB are dropping a limited-edition Support Local Skateboarding pack that includes a New Era Trucker hat, Fitted x APB t-shirt and a skate deck to benefit local skateboarder Kenny Brimer. Brimer– who is an OG member of the A‘ala Park Bastards– was diagnosed with leukimia last year, and is currently receiving a bone marrow transplant and treatment in California. The proceeds of this Fitted x APB collaboration will go to ease the burden of Brimer’s medical bills that are mounting. You should haul ass down to Fitted and APB tomorrow because there is only small amounts of this philanthropic product. All proceeds go to the cause. Show your Aloha for Kenny Brimer and Support Local Skateboarding by throwing down some cash. Be well, Kenny.
There are only 100 of these trucker hats that will be at APB and Fitted.
Here is the Fitted x APB t-shirt. You may have seen people wearing this shirt at the Deck the Halls Skate Art Show at Manifest, that also helped Kenny.
dont know if you’ve heard of this already but the boys over at poor specimen got a new project going on its called innersection.. basically surfers turn in their own footage and everyone gets to vote on them.. and the final winners get to have parts in the newest taylor steele video… Genius!
the first round of voting actually begins in a few hours!
check it out at innersection.tv
heres what innersection is all about down below
This is a platform for creating a surf movie. It’s also a competition in which YOU are the judge.
For this contest, surfers (working with filmmakers and editors) create their own 2-3 minute surf movie.
Innersection Members (that’s you) judge these sections to determine which ones become part of the next Taylor Steele high-performance surf movie.
The competition runs in four seasonal Rounds (every two months, starting March 1st). Each Round qualifies five new surfers for the final DVD — releasing December 2010.
Rounds run in three week-long phases:
1st WEEK: competitors upload sections to the site. No voting.
2nd WEEK: Members rate each section on a 1-10 scale. This narrows the field down to the 10 best sections.
3rd WEEK: Members rank sections 1 thru 10.
After that, we announce the five sections that qualified for the movie.
These winners have the rest of the year to improve their section for the final Innersection DVD.
Twenty sections will be on the final DVD. You select the best one to win US$100,000.
Membership is free. Click below to sign up and start creating your surf movie.
Ran into an old friend of mine from Maui and he mentioned that he and a few partners recently opened up a legit Brazilian Jiu Jistu School in downtown Portland, OR right across from PGE Park. He was sick of the grind and decided to take a chance at doing his own thing. The gym is really nice and also features a small retail space with local brands. Always good to see local boys making a go of it.

Given is the son of Daisy and Aamion Goodwin. Given is only 22 months old and enjoys anything recreational with his Mommy and Daddy! Check out how stoked he is to be riding these waves. If you want to check out more cool surfing clips then go to Pete Hodgson’s You Tube page. Pete has been killing it with the Go Pro video cams. That’s what Given’s wave was shot with. Enjoy!

Vinyl nerds gather! Tomorrow (saturday), Fresh Cafe becomes a dusty, digital nightmare as Hawaii’s vinyl collectors get together and put out their gems for sale and trade. The event is free and goes from 12pm - 5pm. I ran into event organizer Kavet at Jelly’s yesterday as he was picking up some last minute items and he said he’s really excited because he has some vinyl vendors coming that he’s never heard of locally. Get to diggin!
