A couple weeks ago, we brought you a little ditty on Seth Pettersen and his musical ensemble, Franklin For Short, as they started their East Coast Tour. Well, things have concluded and it’s safe to say the endeavor was one for the record books. Below are some great moments on The Kings of Convenience Tour courtesy of Franklin For Short… Who came up anything but as they scooted from gig to gig.

In between shows, Seth and posse captured some classic moving images. Press play! You know you want to…

The shows were packed! Humans had their ears filled with groovy melodies. Here, Seth gets all sing-songy in his red Scurvys.

Dave Rastovich knows a thing or two about nurturing a “Zen relationship with the sea”. When he’s not carving powerful frontside hacks or clockin’ solid time in the green room, Rasta focuses his efforts on increasing awareness about the predicaments plaguing our oceans.

Forget Waldo. Where’s Rasta? Currently, Rasta is kickin’ it in Florida resting a bum foot he sustained while trekking in Indonesia. During the downtime, Rasta admits he’s “pretty nervous about the huge oil spill in the Gulf”. An interview in Huck Magazine describes Rasta as “spiritual guy whose hippie mentality doesn’t stop him surfing with more style and power than most of his macho counterparts”. We couldn’t agree more. Rasta not only wields power through his arcing turns but he’s equally formidable with his conservation efforts.

His latest voyage entitled TransparentSea, was an “effective whistle blowing adventure down the east coast of Australia”. Rasta and his crew originally set out with aims to rid beaches riddled with unsightly rubbish. As the trip grew, so did the missions. Rasta and fellow soul-wombat Chris Del Moro also set out to celebrate the comeback of Australia’s east coast humpback whale. As for the most memorable part of the trip, Rasta is quoted saying, “Being side by side with humpback whales, having them surf swells with us out in the open ocean…made us feel very privileged”.

During the 36-day voyage, Rasta and friends flexed some might with the Surfrider Foundation and Tanaroa Blue’s Marine Debris Initiative. Teams made it a priority to clean and catalog trash-infested beaches. By taking the clean-up one step further and recording data, it becomes possible to see the roots of the problems. Long story short, if we know where trash come from, we can stop it at the source. Prevention is half the battle.

“Surf more, consume less, give back to that which any true surfer can’t live without: the sea.” – Dave “Rasta” Rastovich
