Quitters

2008-11-08T06:40:00.000-08:00

As the Sea Shepherd society prepares for an escalation with the Japanese, Mr Shallhorn has announced Greenpeace will not be going back down to Antarctica this summer.

"Greenpeace has been down in the Southern Ocean for the past three years, so we've taken the decision over the last couple of weeks that really what we need to do is focus on the campaign inside Japan," he said.

Check us out here. Of course I goofed it up and posted the video file (which has no video), but there's a certain zen like quality to viewing the empty video player while Clem explains the intricacy's of ordering ice cream in Japan. Update: Audio version should be available anytime now!

Oki Boards

Local Grom Josh is building his own board line called Oki Boards. I'm pretty sure he's too young to know what an Oki dog is, but play it safe and order yours with extra pastrami. Be sure to check out his board blog.

Masami caught these shots from yesterday's session, which actually sucked contrary to what anyone on the internets might or might not have said.

Kind of a coinkydink considering Sissyfish posted a WOR video yesterday, but the Marshall brothers showed up at Porto this morning for probably the not best surf we've had all year.

Let's hope they leave these at First Point

Clem walks over to the Rip Curl van this morning (they were parked at Rosecrans doing wetsuit demos) to see if he can score some stickers and comes back with Tom Curren. Clem is totally relaxed and cool and I have a complete fanboy spaz. Thank god I did not have my camera.

Whale Meat

2008-09-16T17:08:00.000-07:00

The Japanese and Norwegian whalers use a harpoon which carries an explosive charge. It can take anywhere from seconds to hours for the whale to die after the penthrite explosive has been detonated.

Holy Crap!

My buddy Chris the Bondi surfer,

artist, and photographer

just hit me up on the facebooks to brag about a little bit of swell

and his new surfing boards courtesy of Sea Surfboards.

Thanks for the heads up Mr. Prestidge. I will now return to surfing the 2 1/2 foot southy we are all so thankful for here in the Bear flag state

I`m not a huge fan of reality shows, but the Riders Cup series is such a compelling contest format and these kids can frickin surf. Warning: If you start watching this at work, your day is over.
