from the road

... Elle Green will post more shots from Greenroom 2010 soonish but in the meantime here are some of my shots from the trip so far... the people that made it entertaining and some signage that floats my boat:

TCSS sushi train @ Beams tee...

thank you Masahiro (& asahi) for making it all possible!

Greenroom Japan, Blank Plank Project set up

... the TCSS touring team arrived in Yokohama a day ahead of opening & immediately set to work spray bombing, pin sticking & alaia balancing for the Festival before retiring back to the company cruiser for a round of Asahis & mogicha........

Nice work Tom! I reckon you've neatly captured the quiet, simple, genuine joy of a late arvo log sesh.

free stuff!!

TCSS has a couple of promos on the go at the moment to help you get into some free gear - that's gotta be handy.

SurfStitch are giving away a TCSS "Chief" trucker cap with every purchase of Critical product.... just enter the code "CRITICAL" at the checkout for your top hat.

Click on the pic below to go to the promo




Also feeling mighty generous are the guys at Thalia Surf & Drift Magazine. They are giving away a 6'6" Egg which we are covering with one of our Fish Finger board bags. The lucky winner also gets a selection of TCSS threads. Runner up gets a Green Eggs board bag & a tee, 3rd place gets you a pair of boardies & a cap. Not bad!

Tyler Warren #018

Tyler Warren just had time to wash & press his best trunks after a quick trip to Mexico before jumping a plane to Tokyo with his Alaia, shaped by Paul Joske.

Between wash cycles Tyler burnt an unbelievably intricate Mandala design into the deck of #018:







& there you have it - the Blank Plank project complete.... thanks to everyone involved: shapers, artists, photographers & technicians

Installation at the Yokohama Red Brick Warehouse is this Friday & we'll be posting Elle Green's pics of the day.

yowser!

Jim Mitchell #017

I had a bit of a crash course at poker work last week - not Texas Hold 'em, but the red hot, wood burning type of poker... my house still smells of Paulownia smoke... smells good.

It was an honour to have such a beautiful canvas to work on, thank you Paul Joske.
