Surf Culture

A lot has changed in surfing.

Once a counter culture reserved for the fringe athlete with a strong penchant for the sea, surfing is now a mainstream hashtag crawling with social media influencers and corporate endorsements. What they’ll never get is the simple fact that surfers really want just one thing that big bucks can never displace. We just want to get stoked. And if you’re a surfer, you know exactly what that means.

Like many things in life, you just can’t take surfing too seriously. Our current line is a tongue-in-cheek look into the current state of surf culture.

It’s why we surf. Stoke is a feeling that only a surfer knows. It’s also something that can never be synthesized, commercialized, bottled and sold. Stoke is free, and it is the essence of surfing. Enjoy stoke!

We were all kooks once. The key is to not remain a kook. Don’t drop in. Ever. Don’t bail your board. Respect the pecking order. Take a wave, and give a wave. And for kook’s sake, never pay a grand for a damn t-shirt.
