South Swells = Wedge

admin — Thu, 26 Aug 2010 19:47:45 +0000

With the recent explosion of south swells here in Southern California, it’s no secret that the Wedge in Newport Beach is gonna create some mutant shorebreak wedgies! Check out this perfect barreling wedge peak with nobody on it? I wonder if it’s empty because that 3 foot sidewave coming at it, is aggressive enough to huck someone head over heels!!

Shorebreak charger and Wedge local, Chad Andino grabbed the Super ONE and decided to get a few close out dumpers like this overhead frothy barrel above. Chad is always on it at the Wedge when the south swells hit! Pic.thesurfboardman.com

Our marketing guy Chris Monroe, just back from Hawaii and was enjoying some ramps at the Wedge. Here’s a unique angle from the jetty of a 360 air. Chris was psyched on the waves but not on the 60 degree water temp that was on tap at the Wedge. Pic.Mokitom.com

Whenever the Wedge breaks, there’s always a hefty crowd on the beach to watch people get thrashed like ragdolls!

Chad again, this time exiting the barrel before the frothy lip has time to take out it’s aggression on him. Pic. thesurfboardman.com

Chris again, this time using the sidewave as a launch ramp on a right. Pic.Mokitom.com

Our East Coast rep, Ricky Miller is in town and came by the factory today to check it out and make sure we’re making enough Beaters to keep all the shredders happy this summer! Ricky will be helping run the Battle of the Beater contest tomorrow down in Oceanside.

Ricky went in the back and did some custom raggae stamping on his Division 71 bodyboard.

This picture is pretty funny, Johnny was getting pretty radical during the San Clemente Ocean Festival and here Darrel Luccarelli captured a photo of Johnny about to have a chop hop collision with Darrel’s son James.

Catch Surf grom Colton Overin and his double trouble summertime quiver ready to do battle.

We never ran this shot of Bill “Beaker” Bryan throwing buckets on the ONE board, so today seems like a good day to shine some light on this gem photo. Pic. Mokitom.com

While you are reading this, Division 71 teamrider John “Beans” Porzuczek is somewhere in Australia scoring nugget barrels under rainbows!

Beans snapped this one right before he paddled out… Ohhh myyyy….

Division 71 east coast rider Mike Bain is in town for a week and had a chance to come visit the Catch Surf factory and see the Beater madness firsthand. The Beater is HOT right now…..

Mike has been enjoying the fun little south swells Southern California has delivered the past couple days, here Mike wrenches a nice little cutty reverse and Salt Creek. Pic.Mokitom

While Mike is here, he is staying with Catch Surf teamrider Taylor Page and on this day at Creek, Taylor opted to ride the Beater. Taylor busting a nice little finless floater. Pic.Mokitom.com

Taylor again, this time he’s getting a little finless barrel action.

Taylor and Big Al posing with a custom SC stamped Beater made for the Sheckler household. If you like this Beater stamping style just put “Sheck Beater” in the comments box when purchasing your board and we’ll give it this custom touch.

A shop that is right down the street from us that has been a Catch Surf supporter since the beginning is ebodyboarding.com, so today we would like to shed a little light on them in our blog world. Ebodyboarding is ran by Jay Reale (pictured aboved with his magazine covers) and his wife Vicki who are both former professional bodyboarders turned shop owners in San Clemente. Not only is Jay a shredder bodyboarder, he also rips his Catch Surf Y-Quad and Swizzle on a weekly basis!

The Ebodyboarding flag.

Jay’s right-hand-man Justin Butorac packing another box of fun and this time it’s a fresh pair of Stealth S.02 fins!

Ring of Fire II Premiere

admin — Mon, 07 Jun 2010 20:36:18 +0000

This past Saturday the Ring of Fire 2 premiere went down at the Elk’s lodge in San Clemente and it went off! Over 500 people showed up for the premiere and the video was nothing short of a sick display of bodyboarding. Even Ryan Sheckler and his crew showed up to watch the vid. Check out the wrist bands to get in with the Division 71 logos! Catch Surf was proud to be the main sponsoring company of the video.

The stars of the show Rob Isambert (maker of the vid) on the right with John “BEANS” Porzuczek who is now riding for Division 71 bodyboards. We are stoked to have a high caliber US rider like BEANS on the Division 71 team and his skills were showcased well in the closer segment of the video.

The opening of Bean’s segment showed his new Division 71 board which he rode in the Division 71 commercial and got some sick barrels with a helmet cam! Get the video, you’ll see the commercial, it got some good yells when it played at the premiere.

The ticket with the Catch Surf logos on the bottom.

There was no shortage of people, check out the line to get in for the second showing…

The Beater Johnny Redmond commercial on the big screen. Grab your Beater is summertimmmmeeeeeee!!!!!!!!

Mike “Maccadeath” Maccarone also had some sweet cameo’s in the video and whether he’s riding a Beater or a bodyboard, Mike rips!

Some of the Catch Surf crew at the premiere having a good time.

Keaton Moody was one stoked grom as he won a Division 71 Super Deluxe board at the premiere. Stoked!

Some of the SC Boys having good times at the premiere.

So when they threw out some swimfins that weren’t Stealth, well the kids threw them back. Too funny…..

The stoked grom who won the Stealth fins, kept a firm grip on them (as you can see by the hand creases on the box) and was super psyched to get them. Stealth S.02 fins are pure power!

Ring of Fire t-shirts.

Looks like some Beater street teamers were on the prowl before the promo too!
