The Boardroom Icons of Foam, Del Mar 2014 | Matt Calvani


The Boardroom Icons of Foam, Del Mar 2014 - Matt Calvani from Bing Surfboards on Vimeo.
The Boardroom Icons of Foam competition was held at the Del Mar Fairgrounds the weekend of May 17th & 18th of 2014. Bing Surfboards own Matt Calvani was the defending champ from 2013 and was one of six shapers invited to this particular competition.

The board they'd have to shape was Ben Aipa's "Sting" surfboard. An iconic board made famous by riders such as Buttons Kaluhiokalani. Ben Aipa dedicated the competition in memory of Buttons who unfortunately passed away Nov. 2, 2013.

The competition was tight between Matt Calvani and Roger Hinds. Roger Hinds eventually got the nod by Ben Aipa after a long deliberation over the two boards. Big congratulations to Roger and all the competitors. Thank you Boardroom for putting on a great weekend centered around the surfboard builders who create the crafts we love to ride.

CJ Nelson and the 11' Josh Hall Eagle


CJ Nelson and the 11' Josh Hall Eagle from CJ Nelson on Vimeo.
Josh made a 11' eagle for my recent trip to Mexico. I had never rode one before but had heard nothing but good things about this design. I ended up loving the board and rode it every day of our trip. I have never had a board teach me so much about my surfing. I will always have one in my quiver. Thanks Josh, -cj

Canggu Surf Community Inaugural Longboard Event 2014


Canggu Surf Community Inaugural Longboard Event 2014 from Deus ex Machina on Vimeo.
They came one and all, local and expat, old and young, from fifty to twelve.
All with one thing they shared, a common thread if you like.
They all were there to compete in the inaugural Canggu Surf Community’s Longboard event.
A fabulous day in the sun spent with likeminded kinfolk from Bali and around the world.
It was a mixture of talent and tactics, mischief and antics.
Smiles spread through the gaggle that gathered to gander on the grassy knoll above Tugu.
Don’t take our word for it, as the Deus Media team were on hand and Andre Cricket shot the proverbial out of it. He’s come back to us today with this, his little visual gift.
We hope you enjoy it as much as we did, now and on the day.

Surf Photographer | Clark Little



The Inertia: Surfing's Definitive Community //http://www.theinertia.com

Getting tossed around by shorebreak and slammed into the sand day after day is a rough go; Clark Little wouldn't have it any other way. In fact, for the North Shore local, it's all in a good day's work. But the Waimea addict didn't grow up snapping shots with his father's camera like so many photographers do. He instead set out to capture his longtime stomping grounds when his wife came home with a framed photograph of Waimea shorebreak, an image he figured he would be able to easily replicate. Having never owned a camera, he threw a cheap "waterproof" casing over a cheaper point-and-shoot and headed out to the beach. Since that first attempt, Clark has not only emulated his wife's purchased wall art, but — with a gallery in Haleiwa and international recognition — has become a heavily respected fixture of wave photography.

Special thanks to Tom Servais and Clark Little archives for the gorgeous imagery, and check out Clark's new, 160-page coffee table book, Shorebreak, to see more of his work.

Brother of the weird | Iron & Resin


Brother of the weird - Iron & Resin from Desillusion Magazine on Vimeo.
- Pour le sous-titrage francais, selectionnez CC dans la barre de Lecture -

Based in the heart of Ventura, a town literally fuelled by waves and gasoline. Iron & Resin is the product of several friends, immersed in a culture of motorcycles and point breaks. A culture where man builds with his own hands and the only thing that counts is living in the moment. ’Brother of the Weird’ presents an insight into the brand with co-founder Thom Hill.

This short film is based on the article “Behind The Desk - Iron & Resin” published in Desillusion Magazine 45 , Tome 1.
Available on http://tiny.cc/u7rxdx

Desillusion is a 260 page coffee table book, ad free, accompanied by a series of short-films exclusively showcasing every week on DSLmag.com. At the crossroads of two opposite worlds, the street & the beach, Desillusion pays a tribute to youth & a subculture raised on a surf and/or skateboard.

I Had Too Much To Dream Last Night | Trailer


I Had Too Much To Dream Last Night - Trailer from Deus ex Machina on Vimeo.
'I HAD TO MUCH TOO DREAM LAST NIGHT' follows the simplistic travels of two surfers, meeting friends along the way, on an open ended journey across an archipelago littered with islands and breaks. Connected by ribbons of tarmac and separated by deep ocean valleys these islands have been here for millennia and will continue to do so for millennia to come. An veritable eden for waves of every nature, from long reeling glassy points breaks to sketchy urchin infested waves in the middle of nowhere

Film coming May 2014
