Jack flying the flag for Bing Surfboards in OZ.

Jack picked up his 9'6" Elevator today and was stoked how it turned out. I'll have to agree with him, it's one of the nicest boards I've seen in a while. Enjoy!!!

Alex Knost takes 1st place in the Joel Tudor Duct Tape Invitational @ Steamer Lane, Santa Cruz.

With prize money set at $10k, 16 of the top longboarders gathered at Steamer Lane. Riding single fin logs, the surfers aren't hampered by interference calls but instead were encouraged to share peaks. Vans also held a special legends round which included Nat Young, Joel Tudor, Herbie Fletcher, Micheal Junod and Tyler Hatzikian.

Alex Knost won the main event with Harrison Roach 2nd and Ryan Burch 3rd.
