Check out this rad trailer for a local surf trip from Encinitas to San Diego…with no budget.
“A Staycation Surfari Epic on Zero Dollars…
Making their own boards, bamboo rickshaws, solar cookers, and hobo stoves, surfers Ryan Burch and Cyrus Sutton set off on a thirty mile, eight day walk through San Diego, CA. But what begins as a guide to taking a minimalist surfing journey, quickly becomes an examination of freedom vs alienation.”
Similar in scope to Travis Rice’s epic shredumentary “That’s It That’s” from a few seasons back, world class surfer Jamie O’Brien was supposed to release his look at what surfing means to him in “Who is J.O.B.?” a year ago. As the trailer states…it’s out when it’s out. Until then, press play a few times.
Ken Block is back to promote DC in the third installment of his wicked Gymkhana series. One thing you’ll notice is he has jumped off the Subaru team and into devilish little Ford Fiesta. It’s just a guess, but I think he loves his job.
All I can say is fucking sweet. Russ Chimes and Director Saman Keshavarz have gone above the bar and given us an amazing way to premiere a new album; with a three part mini movie. Each part of the trilogy was released over the last month and features three of the new tacks off the Midnight Club EP. Be sure to watch em all to get the whole story. Part one and two are my favorites by far. Enjoy.
Be on the look out, this dude is going to blow up!
Part One: Never Look Back
Part Two: Tetre Rogue
Part Three: Targa

In addition to our already amazing columns such as Noise Not Unheard, #MusicMonday, Web2.bro, and Mixtapes, we are now adding Dawn Patrol to the arsenal, a collection of posts centric to all things surfing.
To kick things off, here is an amazing short film by Mickey Smith that masterfully captures the essence of his life as a bodyboarder and surf photographer in the icy, brutal waters of Ireland. Give this one your full attention. Read below for more from Mickey.
Relentless Energy presents Short Stories, a challenge to recognised core sports and music filmmakers…
The first Short Stories film, by renowned photographer and bodyboarder Mickey Smith, explores his world as a true waterman - both as an athlete and artist, and is called The Dark Side of The Lens.
“Originally I planned for the film to be more anonymous, rather than biographical, an all encompassing piece, to represent the photographers keeping the surfing machine afloat”, explains Smith.
Something that offers insight into what it takes to grind out a living as a water-based photographer in the surfing industry: a short experimental glimpse at a life lived in the shadow of obsessive photographic pursuits.”
“It also gave me the chance to ask myself a few questions, like, if you’re always observing and documenting what you see and experience, are you ever truly present? Questions like that where I could step back think and then see what the answers were”, Smith says.
As well as documenting various voices and experiences across surf photography, Smith worked with Allan Wilson from the Astray Collective, who acted as Director of Photography on the project. Together they logged hours of footage across the Atlantic coastline, traveling around Ireland, Cornwall and Manchester. Shot in Super 16mm film, as well as groundbreaking work with Canon 5D mk11 Digital SLR, Smith also projected images of the huge walls of water within which he works, on to monster urban landscapes such as sky rises and castles in Manchester, as well as the cliff lines at his home of Ireland
It’s that time of year again. You are as tan as you can possibly be. Your liver is most likely very upset with your summertime alter ego.

In celebration of the countdown to opening day, here is the teaser for Absinthe Films latest gift, “Nowhere.”
