Matix Mens core skate range


Tim Gavin and Daewon Song formed their Matix clothing range out of a strong dislike of the fact their skate brand clothing fell apart when ever they came off their boards. That's why they started a whole new brand where performance and quality of their fabrics would be key. IT's and idea that caught on and now the brand is one of the most reputable in the industry from their artist tees to their signature asher styles and the infamous miner jeans. This is a brand that has it all- and now you can have it too as their new range has rocked up into the building.

HUGE TAHITI SWELL ROCKS CLOSING DAYS OF 2010 BILLABONG XXL BIG WAVE AWARDS

The annual event period for the Billabong XXL Global Big Wave Awards presented by Monster Energy coincided with the end of the Northern Hemisphere winter last Saturday – but a last-minute off-season swell slamming Tahiti has turned the competition upside down with a fresh influx of stunning big wave images. The largest waves seen there in three years (and some of the heaviest tubes ever photographed) heaved across the legendary reef at Teahupoo on March 17, scraping in under today’s final deadline for entering images into the XXL event.

For the first time in the ten-year history of the Billabong XXL Big Wave Awards, a swell with the power to rearrange the potential nominees has come in the final week of the year-long competition. A unique event in surfing, the XXL honors the greatest achievements in big wave riding anywhere in the world at any time -- based on the photographic evidence. Generally, the short list of Billabong XXL Awards nominees has firmed up by late March, a time when the North Pacific and Atlantic are settled down for the season and the South Seas have yet to come to life. But in a year of high surf superlatives, it should not have come as a surprise that an off-season game-changer would suddenly appear.

Volcom News | IPOD TAKES THE TOP SPOT AT THE INAUGURAL EUROPEAN X GAMES

Yup, you read right... Ipod got his Olympic redemption and then some, after taking home the Gold X Games medal already in his 2nd out 3 final runs...

His winning run started with a cab 10 doublecork, to fs 5 to a perfect double Mctwist 1260 to fs 10 to Cab 7. And that run earned him a score of 98 out of a possible 100 points. Then, in his final run, he went apeshit and stomped the highest Method's and Air to fakie of the whole event..

Not much else to say than a huge congratulations to Ipod. He is only the 2nd person to ever land the double Mctwist 12, after Shaun White.

New Mens brand Rusty- its here



Over a month ago we dropped the bomb that we would be stocking Rusty awesome mens surf wear brand and now its finally here.
We'd thought we would start the blog with a wee history lesson for those of you not particularly in the know.
On December 5 of ’05, Clark Foam closes its doors on the surfboard industry forever, initiating one of the most tragic days in the history of the sport. Rusty along with hundreds of other global surfboard builders take quite a hit but find optimism in what will surely be coming years full of innovation.
In spite of the dark cloud hung over us all by the Clark Closure, the Rusty brand takes a fresh look at the youth market it has remained a leader of for so long and finds its mission for 2006: All About Surfing and All About the Beach. By the end of January ('06), Hawaiian phenom Jamie O'Brien signed on and commenced to blow up harder than ever before with four magazine covers in the month April. Along with Jamie "The Freak" O'Brien, San Clemente, California's Nate Yeomons joins the team and begins his assault on the WQS and focuses on making the Dream Tour in the coming years. And while the team solidifies, innovation in surfboard construction and design flourishes in many directions, confirming that the show will indeed go on and that life without Clark isn't so bad after all.

EFX BANDS


Do you want to increase balance, strength and flexibility (yes). Impact performance, function and well-being (ok). Facilitate and enhance engery flow along meridian channels (what?). Tune your body's naturally occurring frequencies (now you've lost me!) and impact the body's overall state of health (this sounds like a good idea)?

Then get one of these EFX PERMANCE BANDS. They're a silcon wristband with a magnet that will change your life around, so much so that you will literally be buzzing with energy whilst wearing it (we know this because our very own lovely warehouse guy tested it and he flew round all day, like never before, this is how i know it works!)

So we got on this and did our very own tried and tested experiment and tested my balance whilst standing on one leg. So yes standing on one leg proved to be difficult when you are being pushed down on one arm without the EFX WRISTBAND, but with it on, now that was a whole different story. I was quite simply irresistable to wobble nudges and came through in true michelin man style! Hurray for that, who needs the gym when you can have one of these!

They definitely work, trouble is are you brave enough to try it?

Steph Gilmore wins at Roxy Pro Event
