Warm NW January





Here's a few photos of Isaac and Bryce hitting up the beach recently. We've had the idea of getting some shots through a frame at the beach so we gave it a try.

Here in Washington we've been having a bunch of sunny days with temperatures in the 50's (still cold for skimming though), but we are on our way to having the warmest January ever on record. Could be a sign that we are going to have an early spring!

New Poll, Help us pick a new comp location


DB would like to introduce a new competition next summer. Starting a new event takes a lot of planning, support from local crews, support from local parks/communities. Show your support by helping us decide what location would be best for a new comp.

If one of the locations listed is your home beach, leave a comment on this post saying why we SHOULD host a comp their, or why we should NOT.

If your home beach is not listed, leave a comment letting us know where you skim and why your location should be added to the list.

Thanks for helping out! These comps are put on for your benefit so get involved!

Tribute to James Horton


James Horton the owner of Adrenaline Plus Board Store in Canberra, Australia was involved in a boating accident last Monday at the Molonglo River. James passed away not long after. He was very well respected and a lot of people looked up to him. He was down to earth, honest and lived life to the fullest.

James will be sadly missed but will always be remembered. He was a good mate and big inspiration to our Australian rider Tommy.

Tommy and everyone from the DB Crew offer their condolences to Tanya and their three Children.

Rest in peace James.

Isaac Thomas BIYD part done (almost)


Too much footy!

Corrugated Pipe gap at chambers.

Isaac slashing in white rock.

Isaac with some serious pop in White Rock.

Isaac Thomas and Richard Docter worked quite a bit on his part over the holidays. The boys narrowed down Isaac's astounding 35 min of raw tricks down to 6min....and got the skeleton of the edit in place. All that's left now are the finishing touches.

Isaac skimmed, filmed, and was filmed a TON last summer. Like always Isaac's part is carefully planned, very technical, and always raising the bar. This year Isaac got out of hand with huge gaps, tech rail combo's, and bangers that you have to see to believe. Check him out in BIYD when it drops this spring...until then, check out a few B-Stock but still blog worthy Photo's.

Oh yeah. Buy Isaac's board while you are at it www.shopdbskimboards.com
