Noah Neilson, (son of Tom Neilson surfboards… the main boards I ride) broke his neck. He is now in a halo, has no health insurance, and has huge hospital bills right now. My good pal Redd is throwing a Surf Contest to raise money for his bills, and I am throwing the after party. I am going to paint a board on the beach at the contest and raffle it off at the after party. I am gonna DJ with 3 other killer DJ’s at the party. Everyone should come. The contest is behind Neilson Surf Shop on the beach, and after party is at Rum Runners in Cocoa Beach.
Mark Longenecker & Drew Brophy Colab again!
Mark Longenecker spent a week in San Clemente, CA with his good friend Drew Brophy doing non-stop art. They hand panted a surf/ocean inspired flash set . They both painted vans for a very hip van rental company called Escape Camper Vans- www.escapecampervans.com . Mark even got Drew to tattoo him while he was there. Drew had never even done a tattoo in his life. So check out the new killer Flash Set….it is $100 and comes with line drawings. If you would like a set hit us up 321-799-9776
