Josh Hall Surfboards

my old friend josh hall has been making some beautiful wave sliders out of san diego, ca.  i first met josh about 15 years ago through a good friend and even then, he was dedicated to making pure surf craft.  he's studied under skip frye and is truly tapped in.  if you're interested in a new vehicle, check out - josh hall surfboards.

Glass Roots





i joined brad gerlach for seven days on the road delivering cases of free primo beer to all the glass shops along the california coast.  titled, "the glass roots tour," gerr's idea was to pay homage to the age-old-tradition of leaving your glasser a sixer for that lil' bit of extra love in getting your board finished.  primo re-launched in hawaii last year and is just now coming to the cali coast.  iz gooood.
