All it takes
The workshop has taken a few knocks over the last 12 months and you know what, we’re still here and we couldn’t be more proud of everyone in it and they’re ability to find the opportunities. Rebecca, Gregor, Davo, TK, Jackson, Debs, Sara, TP and all those in the wings showing their support – you [...]
Commitment…
Commitment is a big word, when I first met Tommy, it was the only word in his vocabulary. To commit to something, to put your name to something, to do it with a ruthlessness, an unwavering level of conviction – it’s a pretty inspiring thing. When we all got together 6 years ago, tents in [...]
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. Debbie and a handful of some very flexible friends and yoga teachers in the South West, put together a yoga event at Lusty Glaze beach, Newquay on [...]
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 [...]
Crappy surf companies

Humbling…
So we were in touch with Sean a few years ago, when we saw this short he made. Workshop went quiet, we gathered around TP’s desk and just watched – wicked!
Backyards
Dude’s, quit wishing you need time off, or that you need a vacation, stop thinking about things far away. You ever seen all the amazing places a 5 year old and there mates can go on a daily basis? They can go to the moon, be a ninja turtle, kick faster than Bruse Lee, drive [...]

they pack and deliver like UPS trucks
Monday, July 26th, 2010 Ian and Tim packed for a six week stint in the Indian Ocean and have delivered magazine covers, stories and images to last us into the winter. We just got an email in from Ian this morning, on one of his backside encounters with the reef – wouldn’t even dream of [...]
