A Bodacious Birthday for “The Bone”

Thursday, June 9th, 2011

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Sanuk’s video mastermind, Scott “The Bone” Nichols!

Born with a 7D in hand and a pair of noise-canceling headphones on ears, Scott set his crooked sights on taking over the web at an early age. According to an anonymous source,  his very first word was “rendering”.

Today, after blowing out the imaginary candles on his grocery store cupcakes, Scotty proceeded to “get his inner-princess on” by working on a fresh, new edit.

Cute balloons, dude…

Wish “the Bone” a Happy Birthday by watching some of his most recent masterpieces:

Surf Short: The Australia Project

Wednesday, May 25th, 2011

Looking to break out of the norm, Sanuk teamriders, AJ Collins, Taylor Pai and Eric Tomlinson find a new hemisphere to explore. Struck with a sudden case of déjà vu and an urge to dance, the trio venture into new territory to find freshly harvested wine, an odd topless creature* and all of Australia in the Snapper Rocks line up.

Watch it here: http://vimeo.com/20417994

Shayne’s Sanuks: Chilled in Canada

Wednesday, April 20th, 2011

Welcome to Chapter 5 of Shayne’s Sanuks – a growing collection of photos taken by Sanuk surf shredder/traveler/full-time family man, Shayne McIntyre.

This time, Shayne treks through the rough ‘n rugged coast of Canada with select crew of legendary waterman. While not typically thought of as a premier surf-destination, Canada does have waves… but, only for those salty (or crazy) enough to battle good ol’ Mother Nature.

The following snapshots and words are from the man himself:

My Sanuks: The Shunami Primo. The beaches in British Columbia are full of all kind of interesting flotsam from 10,000lb. logs to baline…

My favorite pic from the trip.  This is a photo of World Champion Surfer, Tom Carroll (center), Legendary Lensman, Jeff Hornbaker (left), and Quiksilver cinematographer, Pat Myers (right), in the moment.

Mark Healey, suited up in his 6ml + gloves & booties a long way from Hawaii.

First time I’ve driven through snow to get surf.

Tom Carroll SUPing a stream riddled with Steelhead Salmon the size of your thigh in crystal clear 40 degree water.

If a tree falls in the woods…it’s all about composition.

Never met a tough as nails surfer like Raph Bruhwiler – Canadian Frontiersman, Father, & ice cold tube aficionado.

Oysters for the picking.

Carefree Cravings: Seth Pettersen & the Undertow

Thursday, March 24th, 2011

So you’re having a backyard barbecue. The brats, brews, and buddies are all raring to go. Heck, even your unreasonably attractive neighbors said they would stop by! Score.

But somethings missing. You need one last ingredient to make everything really click (other than your Sanuks, duh). What you need is the perfect soundtrack! Some sort of musical mojo to kick get everyone feelin’ care free.

Make room on that playlist for our pal Seth Pettersen- A good ol’ boy from Ventura, California with a sound as soothing as that aloe vera you’ll be needing after all that drunken bocce-ball

Yep, your shindig is now in full effect. Next thing you know, day turns to night with no end in sight. Your friends make that second beer run, someone lights the bonfire and – wait a minute - is someone’s naked in the pool?! It’s a good day.

Like what you hear? Dig this vibe?
