PIER PRESSURE PRO JR. The ASP Nike pier pressure Grade 4 PRO JR is over. Keanu Asing wins. ...Lost rider Chase Wilson makes first Pro Jr final - finishes fourth.

Like Gorkin says, "Kids, stay in school cuz you can't always count on pro surfing". But it seems as though with this much talent why wouldn't you attempt the WQS. You can always go to school. Congrats to Chase.

SI PRO UPDATE!! PAT GUDAUSKIS WINS 1/10/08 San Clemente's Pat Gudauskis won the SI Pro against another San Clemente local Mike Losness. He dedicated the win to our good friend Jack Meyer who passed away last year at this time while jogging in Melbourne Beach. Waves were 2 foot (shoulder high+ sets), glassy and fast - resembling a semi-closed out mix between Rivvi and the Pier. Semifinalists were Sterling Spencer and Nathaniel Curran. Asher Nolan had the highest heat scores that last few rounds but the waves starved him in the quarters.
We had a long day in the sun which was a sweet change from the last few days.

EXPOSURF 2008 (Peruvian tradeshow) was a blast! We took it upon ourselves, once again, to promote debauchery, buffoonery and nothing other than good times.

After a couple whiskeys, yaggers, barenas, piscos and the like - Milton had to strap down the surfboards with locks so our employees didn’t give them away to the first wonderer asking for a sticker or toilet paper.

CHRIS WARD: Unfortunately, in the early part of 2008, Wardo had a late-night parking lot altercation with a female. Now, we certainly don't condone behavior involving violence. Nonetheless we have taken it upon ourselves to pardon Chris Ward of his derelict behavior. We do this because the surf world and the WCT needs a loose cannon on tour. Wardo's unpredictability, in the water and on the land, is priceless.

HALEIWA PRO- WQS 6 STAR - VIDEO HIGHLIGHTS Contest is over. What an epic day of surfing after the wind switched. Im glad I turned on the computer when the quarters started. Haleiwa was a bigger version of V-land. Spitting barrels across the reef. More of a tube fest than a actual contest. Wardo had a good run until a shocker quarter which saw him out of position and out of rhythm. But then he did get a sick barrel and then did a couple of flowing hard hacks and got a 6.

WCT-MUNDAKA 08-New Video Highlights Are we just losing touch or did Wardo get underscored vs. local hero Aritz Aranburu in R2? Pig dogging on the shoulder in front of the barrel is all Aritz could do given the wave he caught. It is not his fault the judges scored it like he was actually in there. IF the judges had the same angle we had on the webcast (does anyone know?) then the head judge should really intervene cuz they are either not fit to judge or somebody is playing favorites.

LOST.TV - WARDO IN PUERTO LOST.TV - Wardo in Puerto. Apparently a month in the South Pacific getting barreled isn't enough tube time for Chris Ward.

A 6'6" rounded pin and a 6'1" squash tail. What board does he decide to ride on the big day? The 6'1" squash tail probably made for Lowers. Gnarly water footage provided by Ira Nevius.

Wardo rode his 5'8'' Gullwing to start things off and then opted to ride The Rocket man's board. The 5'3'' Rocket (Shane Beschen model). Shane was ripping the gullwing and got pitted in the blueroom or greenroom? Not sure which one it was but he was there. This board is really fast, so all you slow surfers buy one of these and you will enhance your surfing like you have never felt before. The following are some shots of all the participant
US Open Circus day 1__You Missed It! Team ...Lost dominates Battle of the Brands event!...at least the first round. We smoked the field in the first round of The Battle Of The Brands, scoring the highest combined heat score of the first round. The contest was a tag team event with each brand's team of four surfers. We looked the strongest on paper going into the final but then things just didn't go our way. Shea's double-wammy wave was a 1.0 and we even managed to get fined 5 points for not getting our last person into the beach. We did finish fourth so that's not too bad.

He weaved through an incredibly deep right tube, exiting clean with a stylish cutback to boot. This was hands-down the best of his three barrels in that heat.( ...Full Story

BILLBOARD BANDIT GOING SOFT It seems like the Billboard Bandit has stopped defacing public signs and gone to defacing buildings where it is going to be covered up anyway after construction. He is still stealing stuff from Lost rep Benny Bigler though, and even though Benny got the stuff for free it is probably a Misdemeanor offense - maybe less. Anyone with any info please get ahold of us via the contact page of this website. We are serious. Not kidding. We almost caught him last year but he ran too fast.

Wait, what the heck is a recession, anyway? How many times have you heard that word over the past six months? Can’t count? If you were at September’s ASR show, you probably added a few thousand to that number.
