Matuse | TOMO 5/4/3
"The Tumo" is named after the Buddhist meditation Technique where naked Monks sit in the snow, underneath a wet blanket, and dry-it-out with their own body heat. So jump into the coldest environments. The Tumo's got you covered even if you don't meditate." I just received what's sure to be the warmest suit I've ever owned... Pretty stoked on how it looks and feels. Product review to come in the very near future...

The Bing "Feral Pig" for Mr. Black
Oh my!!! The shape of the rail... The shape of the bottom... The subtle consistent rocker, balanced with the weight. I have never picked up a board and had it sing to me like this one does. 10' , 3 5/16" thick (i'm 205 lbs), wide point 6" back, 16 1/4" nose, 16 3/4" tail. It has been such and honor and pleasure to bring boards to a talented craftsman and explain my experiences on the previous boards. I am not one to say this particular design element contributes to this functionality. I feel many elements contribute to a boards functionality. Some design elements contribute to one function attribute more than any other design element that much is certain...but once you think of how each design element inner acts with each other...entropy! At least in my mind. So to design this board, i brought many of my boards to Matt Calvani at BING SURFBOARDS and told each boards story (how it functioned in what conditions). He felt the boards. We talked numbers...and the BING FERAL PIG was born. It is shocking to feel this board under my arm. It feels like what i might have come up with if i could magically create what my mind is looking for.

Lincon's 9'4" Bing Silver Spoon
Lincon wanted his new board to look old school and that's exactly what Matt delivered.Milky white tint, red panels + black pinlines, resin leash loop, glass-on wood fin and personally signed by Bing Copeland. Bit of a keeper I'd say!!!

Mark Riley and the Surf City Exhibition
Mark getting the blank ready
Mark from Riley Balsa wood Surfboards has been invited to shape a solid classic balsa board for the opening night of the Surf City Exhibition.From the arrival of Californian 'malibu' surfboards in the 1950s through to the unleashing of the triple-finned 'thruster' in 1980, Sydney was Australia's surfing capital, its 'surf city'.
It started with a young, restless generation - with their 'finned' fibreglass boards, rock 'n' roll, cars and bad attitudes - hitting the surf and clashing with an outraged alliance of surf-club officials, councillors, police, disapproving parents, a spellbound media and a wide-eyed public. Before long, surfing was 'king' and as its fashions and new-found freedoms were ignited, Sydney produced a line-up of top riders and cutting-edge board designers. The evolution of surfing in the 60s and 70s saw Sydney surf writers, publishers, film-makers, bands and businesses gain international attention as innovators and stirrers.
Surf city at the Museum of Sydney will return to the beaches of the 50s, 60s and 70s and show how Sydney's love affair with surfing has left an indelible, salt-stained mark on this beach-crazed city.
September 23rd - 5pm to 9pm
