Amazon: Surf's Up (Widescreen Special Edition) with Shia LaBeouf, Jeff Bridges, James Woods and Zooey Deschanel

First to recommend

Description

Both my eight-year-old son and I are huge fans of this gorgeously animated film, featuring the voices of Shia LeBeouf, Zooey Deschanel, Jeff Bridges and James Woods. Although animated, the surf scenes are breathtaking and even the potty humor is laugh-out-loud material. A great ride of movie !

Shanaze Reade: The Website

First to recommend

Description

Be on the lookout for the launch of British BMX rider Shanaze Reade's new website. She will be representing her country at the 2008 Summer Olympics, riding for the gold in the women's BMX competition. Of course, she won't be wearing a dress, but I bet she will look just as hot if not hotter in her racing duds.

YouTube: Profile of Kenyon Smith

First to recommend

Description

Kenyon Smith is one athlete you will not be seeing at the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing. Not because he uses steroids. Not because he has been injured. And not because he isn't one of the best in his chosen sport. It's just that Kenyon is, well, a guy. And guys are currently not allowed to compete in synchronized swimming. Perhaps things will change for the 2012 Games in London. In the meantime, check out a preview of his style and personality, courtesy of YouTube. (via Details magazine)

This book chronicles one man's struggle to make it to Beijing and all that he learns on his mid-life journey, both in and out of the swimming pool.
