we’ve got to pass the pebbles!
Nobody trips over mountains. It is the small pebble that causes you to stumble. Pass all the pebbles in your path and you will find you have crossed the mountain. Our Ambassador, record holder and lover of the deep blue is returning from the Freediving World Championships. She’s under the impression that it didn’t go as well as it could’ve, we’re under the impression that this trip was more like a bunch of pebbles she needed to pass and that her mountain... Read More
We’re not angry, just disappointed.
*Before you keep reading, just a heads up – that we’ve spoken to the rad folk at Howies and it’s all cool, we’re cool – this case is closed. Sweet! Back in 2003, Howies did something very rad. A large corporate company, known as Levis, attempted to bully them. Levis were under the impression that the location of the Howies’ tab on their jeans was too similar to the tab found on Levis, potentially causing confusion in the market place. They gave...

We did yoga our way!
Way too many people taking yoga, way too seriously and so we avoided the politics and got back to just feeling good, stretching and spending time with mates.

Product Testers and UN “Hot Zones”
Back in 2007, two Australian skateboarders dropped their boards in Kabul. No sooner had the decks hit the ground, kids surrounded them with eager faces and a hope of learning to skate. Three years later, an all-inclusive skate park and educational facility have been built, allowing children from all walks to get their hands on a 7ply maple deck, some trucks and wheels and skate their hearts out. Sophie, a designer/skater/dreamer, got in touch with us a few years ago saying she... Read More

Yoga Rocks!
So there’s a lot of companies out there doing yoga, teaching yoga, the different styles and it’s all cool – taking things serious is a good thing, but sometimes it’s cool when things, just simply – rock. Yoga does rock, we’ve got a host of people who think it rocks as well and so with a combined love for it, we’re taking our view on yoga to the North Coast of Cornwall! We are organising with the help of some very flexible friends and... Read More
