Here’s an entertaining look behind the scenes of a recent photo session with Melissa Marquardt and her dog Clifford. We headed out to nail a shot for an Alliance Wakeboard ad and had blast. Clifford is a real fine pooch.
It’s been scorching in Southern California. Triple digit temps inland, and 90’s at the beach. Times like these are when you forget snowboarding is even possible, especially in Southern California. Fortunately, our buddy Nick Rockwood snapped us back into reality with his new snowboard teaser, Day of the Living Shred, from last season’s footage from Bear Mountain featuring Nick, Devin Allen, Shane Heckman, Evan Heckman, and Chris Hart. Nice work boys, way to give Bear a real shredding!
Our friend Derek got real excited when we told him about all the new Shark 80’s colors coming out this July. Derek busted out this stupid ridiculous Freestyle flow called “pop it, don’t stop it! Can you beat it? Comment with a link to your own Freestyle Flow for your chance to win a new Shark Watch. But keep it clean if you know what I mean.
Just in case you were wondering if the crew at Freestyle actually surfs or skates or whatever, here’s your proof.Freestyle’s Team Manager Chad LaBass snuck out for a lunch time session last week and scored a clip on the OC Grom Project, starring Freestyle Pro Surfer Andrew Doheny. Watch as Chad scores the wave of the day and then heckles Andrew for not having stickers on his board or a watch on his wrist. Lesson #1: Always have stickers on your boards and a watch on your wrist because you never know when the Team Manager is going to show up! Word!
Although these commercials are a joke, the Tide 3.0 sure isn’t. No doubt the simplest and best Tide Watch on the market.That’s for sure!

Feel free to share with your friends to get the word out. Now go get you some and go shred!
