Fuck Yoga Skateboard and Snowboard

Updated Jun 30, 2008

3 people recommended this item

Description

Swearing is funny. Swearing about peaceful yoga is even funnier.

... A snowboard and a skateboard so you can offend on both pavement and snow.

Mollusk Surf Shop

Updated Sep 28, 2007

2 people recommended this item

Description

Mollusk sits at the nexus of core So Cal surfing, art and beach style. In other words, it's pure Venice. Love that they' just moved into the nabe and look forward to seeing lots of great art (Thomas Campbell... big fan) and gorgeous boards over the years to come.

DigiWall

Updated Sep 25, 2007

1st to recommend

Description

The ultimate gift for your (spoiled) budding climber grom, a digital climbing wall of Swedish origin! Granted, these are designed mostly for rec. centers and Chuck E. Cheese-esque establishments, but, hey, life takes Visa, right? Imagine installing one in your garage, programming the ultimate boulder problem and watching your kid's pals get flash pumps and peel off the wall while you hurl disparaging comments at the little pansies. Now that's what I call a birthday party.

Specialized Globe City commuter bike

Updated Sep 19, 2007

1st to recommend

5 people recommended this item

Description

Specialized's Globe City bike is like a love letter commuters can deliver to the environment everyday with just a little pedaling. Specialized made the bike with features like a covered chain to help jobby people not get filthy on the way to the office. And it's such a fab ride that, get this, their head honcho will ride the darn thing all the way from their HQ in the Bay Area to the bike industry trade show in Las Vegas to prove the point that it's a radical Mama Earth-loving transpo option. Again, Bay Area to Las Vegas! Now that's some kind of passionate S.W.A.K.

Swobo Wool Jerseys

Updated Aug 30, 2007

2 people recommended this item

Description

So dorky it's cool. It's wool... which is eco and comfortable. If I were a better friend, I would buy this for my pal Sean who has the gumption to mountain bike regularly in Los Angeles (meaning, he drives as much as he rides). Maybe I'm just jealous because all I do is pedal my '74 Schwinn up the beach to work. (via otisrubottom)

Ice Cream Ball (Quart)

Updated Aug 28, 2007

29 people recommended this item

Description

If you want to get one of these, you should probably be charming enough to be able to get your friends to shake it for 30 minutes or you won't get any ice cream. I have one and love it - and, yes, I can get my posse to shake it like a Polaroid picture.

I will never, never ever spend the night in a tent with 5 other people. But I might use it for two. Or just for me. Girlfriend needs her beauty sleep.

Dewey Weber electric skateboard

Updated May 30, 2007

1st to recommend

Description

Way cooler than an electric car- get an electric skateboard! The classic-surf inspired design of this Dewey Weber model harkens to the golden age of surfing but also speaks to todays's low-emissions/fuel-saving sensibilities.

For those not into surf lore, Dewey Weber was the original golden boy of surfing and the success of his surfboard line made him the world's first surfing millionaire. Now THAT is radical.

Birdwell Beach Britches

Updated May 30, 2007

1st to recommend

Description

You may think surf trunks are so ubiquitous that they have always been in existence, but Birdwells started the rage - and believe you me, it was a rage - in 1961. These nylon boardies were so coveted that guys would buy armloads while on vacay in so cal and bring them back to their inland pals. Remember, there was no online shopping back in the day.

I think these are supersexy if worn with the right attitude. But here's an important style note: they're short. Not short-short short, but way above the knee.

A refreshing antidote to Dr. Zogg's Sex Wax... both in that it's all about gal power and about eco power: its ingredients all biodegrade and have zero impact on the environment according to the Cradle-to-Cradle standard. (via treehugger)

SpeedoUSA Flipturns 2pc

Updated May 25, 2007

1st to recommend

Description

Why I love this Speedo:
1-Double draw strings keep the bottoms AND top in place
2-Bottoms are a little boyish, which is so cute. Sometimes training bikinis can be either really high-waisted or, worse, high-legged a la Olivia Newton John.
3-Lap swimmers may have to suffer through a lifetime of tanlines over the shoulders, but at least torsos don't have to be chlorine-white all summer.

Surfer Magazine's Guide to Southern California Surf Spots

Updated Dec 1, 2006

1st to recommend

Description

I don't actually have time to surf anymore... and when I do have time I sorta alreay know where I want to go based on what's happening in the water and how many people I feel like punching in the face (because that's how we roll in L.A.) but I bought this book because it made me laugh when I was flipping through it in the bookstore: They called out a certain Ho'wood producer as being a kook and made other apt-and-vaguely-cruel cracks.

Worth getting if you know your spots and if you don't... and a decent option if you're looking to upgrade from Bank Wright's guide (even thought he wins in the "author whose name most qualifies him to write a surfing guide" category).

Sunday dinners at my house require at least 30 minutes of cleanup... Those who aren't scrubbing can kick, roll or shake the ice cream ball and, Viola!, by the time the mess tamed a quart of homemade icecream is ready.
Also comes in a pint-sized version.
