am so honoured to get my first cover! and couldn’t think of a better mag to kick it off than ‘Blue’ Magazine, Japan. I have so much respect for this mag - the humility and stoke they have for all facets of the surfing community has always impressed me - and experiencing it first hand has confirmed it even more. thanks so much Blue! and thanks to killer cat Sean Finnelley for...

she is one crafty cat! handcrafted this board (and fin), makes board bags, takes super cool snappages, sketches and scribbles … and has now begun her own blog/site
one hip chick? Jess she is!
one of the raddest humans alive has just launched more radness into the ether for us all to bask in. meandering in casmir is one of the many epic creative expressions from JJ Wesse!s.
(ps it may take some time to load - but exercise some patience cause it’s totally worth it!)

was a privilege to step into the world of Robin Kegel. he is one amazingly unique and rare individual; someone who lives in the moment and is carving his own path - on a whole other level. i believe he is a vital part of the the future and refinement of surfing and style. it truly was an honour.
