Surfboard wedgie

I didn't believe this photo until the guy rode pass me the other day.
You've gotta give to him for the inventive way of 'carrying' his board to the beach.

Crispy Critters

I'm not a real fan of cereal for breakfast but how cool is this pack.
I came across Coverbrower the other day, the site is stacked full of 'retro' packs. Its definitely worth a browse their archives.

Skate carpark

Amazing moves and photo both made to look easy!

Man Can

I love the scale of this thing! A 1000ml's of beer is quite the quantity to the crack open, its definitely a beer to share or to drink very fast before it gets warm. 'Good evening sir, anything to drink' say the constable to the motorist 'only one beeeer officer'

L'Oréal Perfect Clean

What a cool pack to have in the shower, makes me wanna scrub my pores!
Its pretty neat how everything is integrated into a cute form.

Stigma of foam

I'm not sure why 'foamies' have a stigma around them in the lineup, maybe its memories of failure and frustration of learning to surf they bring back to masculine masses bobbing about in the ocean. Maybe even its the bright 'toyish' colours or the unconventional construction, whatever it is this guy has got over it and looks like he's have a laugh on his 'kook' board.

Kåre's Saab

Some cars like pets, are the spitting image of their owners.
Understated, laid back cool kinda sums up both Kåre and his scandinavian motor.
A bit battered and bruised she's a comfy beast for cruising the coast, hopefully she's got one or two more surf trips left in her.

Rockaway Taco, A Selby Film from the selby on Vimeo.

There are not many cities in the world were you can you can jump on the subway to catch a ride to the beach! Its a shame it gets so bloody cold in the winter in NY. Enjoy the video.

Pete's VDub

Pete's VDub
There's not much room to sleep let alone sit in Pete's van for all his toys. Although both have a few miles on the clock theres no stopping them whizzing up and down the country lanes in search of fun and adventure with friends.

Japanese sauce

This fella just had to come home from the supermarket.
Not sure where he's from, maybe Japan. Cute and clever use of the shrink wrap and the label on the lid though.

Alan Macdonald paintings

Alan Macdonald's oil paintings are great.
The strange and uncomfortable mix of 17th century portrait style
and modern packaging just seems to work.

Where has this year gone?


This year has flown by! Not wishing it to be over but I'm looking forward to seeing some of Specialized 2011 offerings in the flesh.
The Stumpjumper fsr EVO looks ready to rip straight from the get go. Its taken a while but its good to see a bike company taking note to how their customers have been
customising stock bikes.

Far from the Madding Crowd

Its amazing how an unusual angle of well know beach can light your imagination.

Bent Metal

I had been after an Asian style BBQ grill for ages and happened to find this one
for only $30 in Maroubra. For such simple grill it burns really well and uses very little charcoal. Looking forward to smoking out the neighbourhood on a regular basis.

Laurie's traveller

Laurie's traveller
Bought new and drove daily for decades, the distinctive exhaust would break the Sunday morning silence as they headed off to the sailing club. Laurie's hand built mirror would easily sit on top waiting to be launched on the Medway.

Concrete destroyer




Laurie still skates these days but his attack on the urban landscape has mellowed with age.
Although more relaxed in his approach the energy and skill of years pasted
is still be to witnessed.

The view from above


Its always a joy to go and work with the guys in North Sydney. Great people, fun projects, amazing views!

Blueberry Fanta

This can of Blueberry Fanta certainly stood out on in the chiller.
It looked just radioactive, I would hate to think about the amount of colouring and e numbers in the drink. Photo Will Sherman
