Mackie Smooth Glide


Fresh off the plane. 7'10" x 21 3/4" x 3", foiled beautifully, bladey rails and that tail is tight. Got the Dave Parmenter seal of approval today. $1000 and you get a 9" Matte Black flex fin to try in it.

THe Nearly Gone Merch


First up, that Windy Hills record. It's really, really good. I'm playing it a lot and really quite blown away. Gentle-ish tripped out and and with a fantastic flow, it really is like a good surf session in audio form- Rincon on a waist to chest day or some mysto river mouth with cold water and no one else out, thermos of hot beverage back at the truck and dinner taken care of. It's good. We have vinyl and CD but not much left, $37 & $30 respectively, only place to get it in the US and copies are signed by Kidman. Meanwhile, in the process of reorganizing the storage corner in preparation for the incoming Parmenters (yes for sale but you'll see them soon enough) some t-shirt sorting was done and a few last one lefts turned up. Super old school Swift Movement Wayne Lynch double ender shirt, size L but it's one of those old American Apparel shirts so a very slim fitting L. Epic Tony Alva Friedman shirt, size XL and it's a Hanes so actually XL. Brown Birds From Windy Hill! Onya mate, size L and a completely normal L thankfully. One of each, and only $25 each.

More From the South

The Southern American continent of course, Reverb once again and once again the boards are finished beautifully and look utterly functional and essential. Lovely work.
