It’s looking like the age old adage is holding true: The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. Little John “Jondor” Mel, the son of Santa Cruz big wave warrior Peter “The Condor” Mel, has been on quite the tear lately…
Once his toes defrost from all that chilly Northern California water, they get happy in a heartbeat.
Sanuk’s Shayne and Shannon McIntyre live the life most of us only dream about… They have been to more countries than our intern can even name. They have savored foreign delicacies that most noses don’t even get to sniff. Not to mention all the empty surf they stumble upon….
But, while it may seem like non-stop suntans and mai-tais, things can get quite interesting. Don’t worry folks, these family-first humans are professionals. Good thing our friends at Fuel TV are always there to document their travels for “On Surfari“.
In this new episode, the family jets over to Haiti to get a closer look at what living conditions are truly like in the areas ravaged by January’s massive earthquake. Turns out Shayne and Shannon discover a completely different picture than one painted by news agencies. “On Surfari: Haiti” airs this coming Monday, August 23 at 8:00pm ET (5:00pm PT) and telecast several additional times. Check it out:
Recently, Rusty Surfboards in Del Mar held a world premier screening of On Surfari: Haiti in their back parking lot. The good ol’ fashioned night out was chalk full of soulful fun as 250+ humans rallied to support Sanuk’s Shayne McIntyre’s unveiling of two fresh episodes of his show On Surfari. Shayne, a world-traveling soul surfer and full-time family man, has a show on Fuel TV that documents his family’s travels everywhere where they go.
For the event, the On Surfari crew even put together a gargantuan raffle to benefit the people of Haiti. If you weren’t able to make it out for the event, fear not, because the screening of the episode will debut shortly on Fuel TV.
As Fuel TV states, “Shannon and Shayne have lucked into some kind of perma-honeymoon, except rather than egocentrically living for themselves on their incredible adventures, the McIntyre’s use their celebrity to better local communities”.
