Hufnagel Cycles


Hufnagel Cycles for Ace Hotel Portland from Ace Hotel on Vimeo.
Jordan Hufnagel is not only our friend and one of the raddest people on the globe, he is also a top shelf bicycle crafter. Before setting off on a homemade motorcycle toward South America this summer with no possessions and no plans, he made a fleet of four beautiful bikes for Ace Hotel Portland with his bare hands. We caught the process on film, and rode them all over to the hotel from his workshop in SE one late summer's eve. Along the way, we met cop horses, innocent standers-by and a long-lost part of ourselves, it seems.

When you're staying with us in Portland, you can rent one for the day and roll in style. They have a nice rack on the front (not that kind!) so you can pick up loot and local goods along the way.

I think as photographers we get in a rhythm of playing by rules that were written by others. I feel this applies to life as well. To live by rules that were created by others we may never find out who we really are.

Bob McTavish shaping boards at the Deus Temple of Enthusiasm


Bob McTavish shaping boards at the Deus Temple of Enthusiasm and Surfing Canggu from Deus ex Machina on Vimeo.
2012 was the year for the shaper here at the Temple. We have been so blessed by the board builders that have spent time with us over the last year! Maybe our most honored guest was none other than Bob McTavish. We being big fans of boards from the 1968 and 1969 era we were ecstatic when Bob showed up out back and started mowing foam into Trackers out back. He proceeded to grab one of his own trackers and surf out front with the rest of the crew! Not bad for a bloke that almost 70!
Here is a slice of visual pie documenting a few minutes of Bob’s time spent in the neighborhood. Enjoy!

Finding Escape by Mark Tipple


Finding Escape from Mark Tipple on Vimeo.
On the 17th of December 2009 I was photographing small waves at Coogee Beach, Sydney when I dove under a larger wave and thought to turn the camera onto a swimmer next to me, and see what he went through while diving under the wave.
This split second produced a photo entitled 'Escape', and changed the direction of my photography with an ongoing series called The Underwater Project.
In my other photography work the personal connection between myself and the people in front of the camera is paramount, and while I work towards building these long term relationships it's this connection that has been lost through a candid approach to shooting underwater.
As the fourth year of shooting underwater begins I'm trying to find the swimmer that was in the first photo of the series. Can you help Find Escape?

The Retro Movement collaboration with Banger

Daniel Costa - You can reach outstanding results.
It was a hard week away from my babes, but the shapes that came out from
the Retro Movement collaboration with Banger,
in fact I think the Retro Movement have reach a new level in board design
new projects are coming soon with some really nice log designs
but for now here's a couple of photos from Spain.




The journey begins... checking the blank, lovely three red wood stringers.
JUST FOAM from California.




Doing my characteristic low nose rocker...



Taking the extra volume...



Here, looking for the rail on this lovely shape based on the MAGIC SAM that
Nat Young used to won the 1966 world tittle in San Diego...




Lovely nose template with the so beautiful three stringers.



"Diego from Jerez" the men in Spain if you're looking for some cool logs
and logging culture....




Signing the first one for BANGER



Here's my interpretation of the magic SAM a little closer to the Son of SAM from Kookbox but with slight changes to keep it more friendly to our waves...
