Depth of Speed | Something From Nothing
Depth of Speed: Something From Nothing from Josh Clason on Vimeo.
I had the opportunity to swing by TBC Hot Rods and Bikes in Fayetteville, NC and check out the shop. Every month the guys at the shop pool their funds together to bring in a band, food, and drinks for "Garage Night". It is something that really gives back to the automotive community in Fayetteville which is what it is all about. Tim Bradham is one of the nicest people you will meet and is a master fabricator. He creates a lot of things out of raw materials and it is amazing to see something start from nothing.

RITRATTI DI SURF | ALESSANDRO PONZANELLI & MATT CALVANI | PART 1
RITRATTI DI SURF | ALESSANDRO PONZANELLI & MATT CALVANI _ PART 1 from BLOCK10 on Vimeo.
One dances on his surfboard like the best Californians but was born and raised in Tuscany, on the Versilia shores. The other took over an iconic surf brand of the 60s and successfully brought it into the 21st century.
The Onde Nostre team is proud to present Alessandro Ponzanelli - arguably one of the best italian longboarders - and Matt Calvani owner and shaper of Bing Surfboards - and to relate the story of their encounter.
Here's part one.
RITRATTI DI SURF is a series of short videos about surfers, shapers, artists and other characters somehow connected to Onde Nostre and the italian surf culture.

RIP Donald Takayama
Photo: Glaser
Donald Takayama earlier this year, still as enthusiastic as ever to talk surfboard design with Devon Howard.
Surfer Magazine - "According to early reports, lifelong shaping icon Donald Takayama passed away due to heart attack on October 22, 2012. The Hawaiian goofyfooter showed incredible talent for both riding waves and making surfboards at a young age, and moved from Waikiki to Venice Beach at just 12 years old to make boards under the Velzy-Jacobs label. Since his beginnings behind the planer, he has shaped longboards for some of the most iconic surfers of all time, from Miki Dora to Joel Tudor. Takayama was responsible for some of the greatest innovations in longboard design, and will be missed as one of surfing’s most cherished icons."

9' 6 Jim Phillips Small Wave Terrorist
9'6 Jim Phillips Small Wave Terrorist .
Yet another stunner from Jim in and out of the water - this could be defined as THE summer board! Sky blue tint and sweet stringer work, red HD foam and redwood stringer T band.
Wave count and stability perfected. This full figured noserider (standard dimensions based around a nose of 20.5”, mid of 24.5” and tail of 16.5”) finds its home in waves about shoulder high and under. The board features a long soft blended concave for lift, to a slight belly mid with a bit of roll/vee at the fin helping this board connect. The rocker is a tad lifted in the nose for clean wave entry with flat rocker out the tail which aids in drive and speed. The rails are shaped as forgiving 50/50, but the small side of the egg for hold - no catch rails. As you can see in the photo it all adds up to one finely executed plan shape - no big ears or trash can lid noses here. Long summer days and sweet rolling waves…

A Film i shot about Dustin Kott,
the Californian bike builder who makes custom British style Cafe racers out of old japanese bikes.
I met Dustin in LA on a Harley-Davidson shoot, and was intrigued
how a classic American who looks like he should be building
Choppers, was passionate about little old Brit bikes,
and was using cheap 70s Japanese bikes to make lovely custom Cafes.

Dan Malloy and Dane Reynolds Board Swap
Ride shotgun with Dan Malloy and Dane Reynolds as they cruise from their Ventura homes to Emma Wood State Beach for a quiver swap. This insider look at their modes of surfing comes to a head as they trade—and ride—everything from homemade hunks to foiled Fryes. TSJ party members know full-well Malloy's open-minded approach, via articles like "Mar y Tierra" (TSJ 16.4) and "The Present" (TSJ 18.2).

DIY Surfboard Bike Rack | Surf Sufficient
DIY Surfboard Bike Rack - Surf Sufficient from www.KORDUROY.tv on Vimeo.
For those who travel around town by bicycle, they know riding with a surfboard under the arm can be cumbersome and awkward. In this episode of Surf Sufficient, our friend Travis Newhouse helps make that bike commute to the beach much sweeter. By adding a surfboard rack to your rig, your shred sled can be stowed comfortably as you head out for a stoke.
These instructions are a guideline. Each bike and surfboard are different. Be sure to measure your own bike and surfboard, and dry-fit the pieces before you glue them together. We want you to have a safe ride to the beach - make sure the rack will not inhibit your movement on the bike, and that your front tire can turn freely without contacting the surfboard.
Materials:
4 - 1" PVC T-joint
6 - 1" PVC 90 degree elbow
4 - 1.75" diameter hose clamps
10' PVC pipe (Schedule 40)
6' foam pipe insulation for 1" pipe
PVC cement
bungee cords
Tools:
hacksaw
sandpaper or file
measuring tape
flathead screwdriver
Instructions:
1. Measure the diameter the bike's seat tube and down tube.
2. Transfer measurement to the opening at the top of the T-joint, and cut off the top of the T-joint.
3. Place one T-joint on the bike near enough to the pedal to measure the distance to the outside of the pedal. Include enough clearance for your foot, but shorter distance will result in a stronger rack. On this bike, the distance was 8.5 inches.
4. Attach T-joints to bike with hose clamps. For now, tighten only enough to remain in position.
5. Cut 2 pieces of PVC pipe to the length measured in Step 3. Clean up the ends of the cuts with sandpaper or a file. Insert PVC pipe pieces into T-joints.
6. Install two 90* elbows onto PVC pipes, with opening facing the ground.
7. Cut two 3" pieces of PVC pipe, and insert into 90* elbow.
8. Install T-joints onto short pieces such that the openings are facing each other.
9. Determine the length of the crossbeam by measuring distance between the T-joints. Be sure to include 1" at each end for the portion of the pipe that fits into the joint. Cut PVC pipe to length for the crossbeam, and insert the crossbeam into the T-joints.
10. Cut two 11" pieces of PVC pipe, and insert into the ends of the T-joints that face the ground. The suggested length is to fit most surfboards and bikes. Make sure the rack will not extend too close to the ground.
11. Install 90* elbow at the bottom of the pipe, with its opening facing away from the bike.
12. Measure the thickness of your surfboard. Be sure to consider the bulk of a travel bag, if you use one. Add approximately 1/2" for the thickness of the foam padding. Cut two pieces of PVC pipe to length, and insert into the opening of the 90* elbow.
13. Install 90* elbows on the ends of each short piece, with opening facing up.
14. Cut two 12" pieces of PVC pipe, and insert into the 90* elbows. The length of this piece should be less than the width of the board when mounted in the rack. This will ensure the bungee cord can hold the board in the rack.
15. With all the pieces dry-fit, check the fit of your board in the rack.
16. Before disassembling, mark the alignment of pipes and joints that extend out from the bike. Draw a line on the pipes and the T-joints attached to the bike, and also at the top 90 degree elbows.
17. Glue the pipes to the T-joints attached to the bike. Be sure to align the marks made in Step 16.
18. Glue the 90 degree elbows to the pipes extending from the bike. Be sure to align the marks made in Step 16.
19. On a flat surface, glue remaining two T-joints to the crossbeam. Use the flat surface to ensure the T-joint are aligned in the same plane. Also, glue the two 3" pieces into the T-joints.
20. Glue the crossbeam into 90* elbows.
21. Glue the 11" pieces of PVC pipe into the bottom of the T-joints.
22. Continue to glue pieces: 90* elbow followed by short piece of pipe, then another 90* elbow, and finally the 12" vertical piece.
23. Attach the foam insulation to the rack.
24. Drill holes for the bungee cords. Ensure that the holes are low enough to avoid metal hooks contacting the surfboard.
25. Enjoy your ride to the beach!

Uma no Cravo e outra no Surf
Uma no Cravo e outra no Surf from Hélio Valentim on Vimeo.
A surf story about freedom and friendship, history and life, about the fellling of being free...and about free soul surf!
The short movie is a documentary with the finnest and first great Portuguese Surfer and Waterman (Pedro Martins de Lima), and also a fiction of some friends (Wavegliders family) that celebrates in reunion around the fire in a beautifull beach, the freedom after the day of the 25's Abril revolution in 1974 in Portugal that ended with an opressive regime.
It's a freedom surfer celebration...
