Under the Sun - Making of Part 3 from www.KORDUROY.tv on Vimeo.


In the third and final part of the Making Of Under The Sun, we examine the rapid growth of the Gold Coast and Byron Bay. In addition to these increasingly popular Australian cities, surfing has also become more widespread, not only just in Australia or the US, but worldwide. And with the expanding number of surfers in the water, we must now change our perception of surfing and ask ourselves how we want to deal with it.

Under The Sun will be making it's World Online Premiere this coming weekend only. The event will take place three (3) days only, the audience can purchase tickets starting on Monday, August 1st and redeem their code any time August 5th-7th for a private High Definition viewing experience on http://www.theSURFnetwork.com.

Ryan Lovelace is back



After a very successful trip last year, Ryan Lovelace returns to Europe.

Ryan is coming from August 15 to 31 and this time he will shape in France, at Blend Glassing, in Soustons. All boards will be glassed by Nico from Wavegliders, who is currently working there, and the Blend crew.

Ryan Lovelace is one of the most talented and creative shapers from California and has been Considered one of the most talented and innovative shapers from California, Ryan is all about fluid curves and surfing with the wave instead of surfing against it. His designs come from his environment, from the boards he sees and surfs and the waves around. Although not following anyone, his boards get some ideas from names like George Greenough and Greg Liddle. But like he said on a interview for Drift “I don’t have influences or a preconceived notion of what works and what doesn’t. I’m free to do whatever I want and explore any path I find interesting”.

All boards will be 100% hand shaped by Ryan and fully adapted to the surfer’s needs and waves. High quality finishing will be done by master glassers Nico (from Wavegliders) and Fabrice from Blend Glassing.

Shipping across Europe available and wholesale prices for shops on request.

Tyler Warren - All Yew


A 3rd generation artist, Tyler Warren approaches everything with patience and focus. In this All Yew episode by Korduroy TV, Tyler shapes a 4'10" Simmons inspired planing hull from a stringerless blank. The result is what he's dubbed the "Bar of Soap" due to its slippery maneuverability and silky smooth carves. Watch Tyler put it through its paces on the high performance walls of Lower Trestles.
