From Bethany Beach to San Diego, I am beyond stoked to see a fellow Delawarian out there making a name for himself in the surf world. 25 year old Mason Dyer, founder and shaper of The Dyer Brand got his feet wet in Cali surf culture with Captain Fin Co and is now leading the pack shaping a wide range of designs from mini disc eggs to thrusters to full on nose rider models. Colin Herlihy (also a first stater) gives us a glimpse into Mason’s world of starting his own brand of clothing and surfboards.

If you are a New Yorker or Californian who surfs, you know the feeling all too well of rolling up on Rockaway or Malibu on a warm summer day to a heavily crowded lineup. We also share your pain and frustration of getting just a handful of waves all to yourself. We at Indoek are taking one for the team and giving something back to you. It’s a small token of appreciation for supporting us in our time of need. All you need to do is donate at least $5 to our Kickstarter, and we will send you a postcard good for one free wave on us at either Rockaway or Malibu.

Owen Wright is a herculean figure in a sea of short, scrawny professional surfers. His tall, muscular build breaks the mold of the stereotypical surf stature. In this anatomical study of his physique, we highlight his enormous presence compared to his pro surfing peers as well as other professional athletes. Be sure to watch the video and visit the microsite we have created, which features a full scale image of Owen to get up close and personal with. How do you compare to this surf titan?

We’ve been doing this for a couple years now and things have been going great so far! But it is now time for a change. A change that will (hopefully) come in the form of a new site redesign, more product collabs, and especially more original content. We are super excited about the goals we have set out to achieve, but we need your help and support to get there. Please take a moment to look at our Kickstarter project. Every little bit helps bring us closer to achieving our goal and bringing you more awesome content. Thanks for your support!

John John Florence is the man (well, the young man). His short web films continue to push the level of surf content production quality — not to mention his surfing is truly next level. This week’s Surf Porn Sunday features a clip you have likely seen by now of John John ripping and doing his thing before he tragically broke his ankle.

A nice ad collaboration between directors Wes Anderson and Roman Coppola, this short film for Prada called “Candy” pays homage to two French classics: François Truffaut’s 1962, Jules et Jim, and Jean-Luc Godard’s 1964, Bande à part. Best friends, forced to do battle over a beautiful woman. The film stars Peter Gadiot, Rodolphe Pauly and Léa Seydoux.
