Idyllic Clothing | Summer 2014

Hey guys,

My name is Jake Hart, owner of idyllic Clothing - a small surf/skate brand out of NJ. I just stumbled upon your blog today and I'm really digging it. Its got that modern vintage feel which is awesome.

This past summer, I shot a surf/skate film in black and white using a super 8mm camera. I thought, if you guys really wanna take it retro, you might be interested in the video.

Clips from summer 2014 shot on a super 8 camera.
Beach trips, skating, surfing, and hanging around is the way to go.

I appreciate everyone who takes the time to checkout my clips and all the feedback. Thanks to Justin Bowers, Geoff Wilson and Debbie Day for capturing it all. -cj

Kepa & Cyrus | Peru

Kepa & Cyrus in Peru from www.KORDUROY.tv on Vimeo.
This past February Cyrus Sutton and Kepa Acero score perfectly shaped Chicama on the first South swell of the season. Cyrus met up with Kepa in the North coast of Peru hoping to get some late season North swells. Nothing came so they traveled to the Andes to see Machu Picchu and experience some Incan culture. A week into their stay an early season South swell prompted a short flight back to catch one of the world's longest lefts at Chicama. The waves weren't big but the sandbars were good. Here's a few highlights of their trip.

The board I'm riding here is called the "Classic" and its the design I have been ridding for the better part of my surfing life. A true California style nose rider.

From The Cottage

Hey Tiago,

I want to share a 'little something something' I have been working on. I teamed up with a local skateboard shaper 'Jimmy Kakanis' and created a short film about Cottage Skateboards, how it started and what it means to Jimmy to be able to create a job that incorporates all his lifestyle loves of skating and surfing here on the Gold Coast. Jimmy specialises in handcrafted and customised skateboards and has also dabbled in shaping handcrafted logs as seen in the film. Jimmy has been working on the Gold Coast, QLD Australia for the past three years.

After my last short HANDCRAFTED : Thomas Bexon I wanted to create more of a community feel showcasing the talented local artists currently living and working here on the Gold Coast. Jimmy is at the heart of this short documentary but I have made a point of using local musicians in the film. I have tracks from Salvadarlings and Fonz Whaler and also Josiah Birrell aka "GOVS" created the sound design for the film.


I hope you enjoy! Yew!!

Mick thank you for sharing!!!

From The Cottage from Mick Soiza on Vimeo.

Jimmy Kakanis immersed himself into art by handcrafting skateboards to be able to create a job that incorporates all his lifestyle loves of skating, surfing and having a good time. The Gold Coast based skateboard craftsmen lends himself to the camera to give us an insight to his craft and how Cottage Skateboards came to be a part of his life.

ELEMENTAL L

ELEMENTAL L from Nick Jones on Vimeo.
ELEMENTAL L

ELEMENTAL L is an observance of Longboarding in a simple and compounded form. It highlights the ease with which modern day surfers amble to and from the nose, and celebrates the flow with which they slide from section to section. The surfing in ELEMENTAL L was shot in Noosa Heads, in ideal conditions. This film appreciates the key principles of Longboarding. By watching, the viewer may receive insight into Longboarding’s current standard and style. FUCK HIGH-PRO. - Harrison Roach

Shatter: Tom Schuler from Rubbed The Lamp on Vimeo.
Fragments that when brought together can form an entire frame, person or object into something that is tangible. Into something that has matter. Shatter is series of shorts that aims to capture fragments from the various people behind Glass Coffee House and Gallery and MS Surfboards.

Tom Schuler has grown up surfing the 'bluff' and surrounding beach breaks along Maroochydore on an array of craft. From a standard thruster to 60's longboards, all helping to sculpt Tom into a well rounded surfer. This short features Tom's abilities and style on a log down two of the coast's fabled point breaks.

Supported by Glass Coffee House & Gallery and MS Surfboards.

Vissla presents Palmera Express
A short film by Eddie Obrand

"They rode the cool Northeast trade winds across an ocean to The Island. They ended up in the bed of a plantation-green pickup truck, with a mad tour guide behind the wheel, and thrashing palmeras blowing above them. They rode stubby fishes and sleek shortboards through lurching, spitting sapphire surf. Each guy had a story, from the gonzo writer to the gypsy traveler. It was there on The Island where these eclectic friends converged one extraordinary winter to explore these foreign waters and revel in this dreamy island life… All aboard the Palmera Express."

This Clip was shot in during my last stay in Mexico over new years 2015. Ian Chisholm and I have been working hard on designing a range of super functional longboards released threw his label South Coast surfboards. The board I'm riding here is called the "Australian Slasher" and its an Australian involvement style log that was popular in the late and mid 60's. Many of the Australian greats rode similar designs but the time spent on them was cut short by the shortboard revolution. We have taken our knowledge of modern surfboards and mixed it with traditional templates, volumes and materials to come up with a few of the most functional longboard designs to date.
