Wetsuit Explosion
When i started surfing i bought wetsuits that were on sale, discounted or via some deal. It’s crazy how expensive wetsuits cost and until win the lottery, i’m gonna stick with the same cheap program despite “you get what you pay for.” One of the first wetsuits i bought was an Xcel 5/4/3 Infinity. For [...]
The Lost Monkfish Is Awesome
Most people start out surfing on a longboard or some sort of oversized, beginner friendly surfboard. If it clicks and you stick with it your board will probably get a bit shorter as you get better. My first board years ago was a big ‘ol 7’0 NWSD thruster, big-guy-tri, water logged, hand-me-down, POS. That thing [...]
Review: Dakine Cyclone Bag
I got my hands on a Dakine Cyclone Roll Top Bag/Backpack the other day. Totally stoked on it. It’s a dry bag made out of that heavy duty vinyl stuff. Similar to what you see on hipster bike messengers. At 2200 cubic inches, there’s plenty of room to pack in a XL wetsuit, booties, towel [...]
DIY Surf Photography With The Pentax W90
A few years back i got a big ol waterproof case for my Canon SD450. The camera was good and the case worked great. The only lame thing was how big and bulky the waterproof case was. It was a pain to deal with surfing–difficult to tuck into your wetsuit between sets. So a couple [...]
Review: Shaun Tomson's iPhone App – Surfboards
The other day while handlin biz and perusing the App Store on my iPhone i came across an app called Surfboards. The description of the app sounded really cool so i nabbed it. Lots of info on board shapes–rocker, rails, tails. There’s a huge surf specific glossary. Someday i hope to ride a “foam ball”, [...]
The Sultan Bakery
51% of the reason i go to Stevens Pass is for the magic that waits for me at the Sultan Bakery. Donuts the size of your arm, cinnamon rolls the size of your face, bacon so thick that when you bite into it enough grease comes out to gargle….mmm. If you’re heading up on a [...]

2010 Banked Slalom
The Banked Slalom was last weekend. Good times for sure. Read about it on one of these fine websites. (Tackledbox, BoredYak 1, BoredYak 2, BoredYak 3, yobeat, frequencey). Rather than write my own recap i decided to rhyme. Here goes:
Review: Ride Machete
After being a fairly devout Option Snowboards fan, I bought a Ride Machete 164 wide this year. The specs on this board are what appealed to me most–it’s pretty much a mid-wide board. That, the length and it’s slight reverse camber all were what i thought would work best for my size/weight/foot/etc. I’ve managed to [...]
Portland to Become Extreme Sports Capitol of the WORLD
Portland OR, about an hour from world class surf, epic snowboarding, and home to more skate parks than any other city in the US is seeking to secure their spot as the Extreme Sports Capitol of the World. A few dudes with big ideas are looking to turn the Rose Garden and Memorial Colosseum into [...]
