CLASSIC

What a classic shot of the fantastic miss BB at a very early stage of her adventure...

ROAD TRIP

Simple and clean...

BACK HOME

Santa Barbara is finally beautiful, after a misty summer... Enjoy it this Labor Day...

STPL

Had a couple of good dinners with Jeff while in Tokyo last week... This was our first time to cross paths, and he has a good vibe... And no, that is not some new style of ascot, just a massive bib/apron situation we had to wear for the amazing Korean sauce that was flying... Thanks again to HF for some unreal meals... SS

NBHD

Met Shin-san in his Tokyo shop for the first time... Dude sure does a good job with his business, biggest respect for pulling it off with flavor... I know, I know, the sunglasses inside are just ridiculous, but you should have seen how bad I looked in the other shot with them off!.. SS

HF

I have had a ball in Tokyo this week, a couple of great dinners with Hiroshi and friends... I want to thank everyone for a great stay in one of my favorite places... You can tell by this shot my camera skills are not the sharpest after a belly full of Korean BBQ... SS

TOKYO

Rolled into Tokyo last night... The heat is a hot mess, the streets are steaming, getting ready for some mass humanity moments... I will try to keep you posted... SS

COOL

I would love this in four wheel drive...

SUN'S OUT

Finally the sun has come out in my neck of the woods, please tell me the endless drizzle of this summer is over...

COLOR

Color batch...

WIERD PINK+GREEN

Some sick kinda flow going on...

MO BETTAH TOY

A more understandable angle on the toy deal...

MAN TOYS?

I am not big on the adult toy collecting thing, but having said that, this Kaws one is pretty cool... It is super familiar and kinda twisted at the same time, good color layout and spirit...

FIRST THREE

This is as virginal as this space is ever going to look... These are the first three boards to be built in the new workshop, the paint area worked out great... I look forward to putting together some thoughtful sleds in the future, stay tuned... This stash will be on view at the sacred craft and asr shows next week, then auctioned off @6pm on saturday evening, come check it out...SS

GOOD COLOR

Feeling this early Hockney color and vibe... SS

DUDETTE

She busts this look just as good as the boys below... SS

DUDES

These boys are looking pretty current right about now... Is this one of those new j.crew photoshoots?.. What goes around, comes around...

FAVORITE

Still one of my favorite gals worldwide... Miss Charlotte just does it from my perspective... SS

ASSISTANTS

Great to have help at the beach with your equipment, these two definitely would work in a pinch... SS

G UNIT

Feeling this ride through my military lens... Surf exploration just got a little easier... SS

ZEN AND FLOW

I cannot even start to explain how nice it is to have my new little surfboard studio up and running... I realize how much it has meant in my journey, how clothing and shit got in the way years ago... I am stoked with the way things are working out, and cannot wait to flex in that direction... Keep your eyes peeled for some new S/Double sleds to hit the water... Stand Firm... SS

MOWIN' FOAM

Getting a feel for the new room...

NEW LAB

This has been a great two weeks around the S/Double studio... I got my new shaping room up and going, and today painted the first three boards in the new zone... Feels really good and brings a great vibe to the whole studio, finally getting back to what was my passion since I was thirteen years old... This is gonna be a great fall... SS

COOL OFF

Finally started to heat up around here, the gloom of June is only now starting to move out... Enjoy it... SS

MOVES

The beginnings of the look we have become familiar with over the last twenty five years... This is what started the ball rolling... SS

GLIDE

Loving this late 70's ? shot of John Van Ornam, most likely in Newport... I always liked this guys style, along with Eddie Farwell when he was in town... SS

SWEET

A fine Gaviota ride with the perfect tires... SS

WOW

More good curves...

YARD WORK

Not much yard work needed on this pad... Cross your fingers that the global warming thing is a hoax... I also think this place feels good with the car below... SS

SMOOTH

Good curves...

RANDOM COLOR

INDEPENDENCE

Red, white and blue... Do your thing and enjoy the fourth...

REGAL

Gotta love the swagger... Enjoy the holiday... SS

FIGHT THE POWER

MB showing support for the revolution...

TIGHT

Dudes looking about as fresh as you can get... Gear is in serious order, glasses, time, kicks and hardware all simple and classic... How tight is the pad... SS
