Chris Anderson, graphic design student, is installing 1 000 broken surfboards in the sands of a Sydney beach to inform people of the unsustainable practices in surfboard manufacturing. I’m not sure how breaking a thousand surfboards helps this problem, but the installation looks pretty cool.

25 Jul 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 1 Comment
There was a fair amount of sport to watch this past weekend, but I was particularly looking forward to watching the closing rounds of the Billabong Pro surfing event that was on at J-Bay in the Eastern Cape. Jordy Smith had been surfing well and it looked like he could make the final. He did, and he won, again.

Kitesurfers In Blouberg Are Siesa, My Bru
10 Feb 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
Now I should clarify here, Norwegian kitesurfers in blouwberg are siesa. And by “siesa” I of course mean “an intoxicating mix of insanity, skill, and bravery”. Yesterday, Nick Jacobsen climbed up a crane on the deck of the now-permanently wrecked Seli I, with his kite and his board, and jumped off. Nuts.

Alright, so that title may be pushing it, especially considering that the world #2 hasn’t claimed his first ASP World Tour title yet (clue: he will, this year), but with pro surf photographer Ant Fox, Seth and Bruce Good in attendance, it was a pretty darn fine interview.

IT JUST TAKES ONE
13 Jan 2010 by Seth Rotherham / 12 Comments
2oceansvibe’s disdain for cycling fraternity’s need to expose their balls (especially when there are children around) and wear their cycling helmets in and around public retail outlets is well documented. It comes as a surprise to see that surfers are falling into the same public disgrace trap. SURFERS! Of all people! I was under the […]
