Owning a surf shop (with your whole family) is really amazing. Not only being near the boards, the beach, the whole vibe that fills the shop everyday ... that's enough to make you happy to go to work ... but there's more. The people. We have friends we've made via Coastal Surf and Ski, wonderful, quality, humble, stoked, adventurous, FUN people.

Tony ... we love you ... his spirit is so beautiful, his love of people, his respect for the earth, his passion for surfing, his total stoke. James is pictured here in the Arctic hanging out from the ship he’s been traveling on, filming the amazing beauty all around. We can only imagine what this felt like … we’re counting on you bro to tell us everything!!

We're not only about Surfing, we're a full-on Wakeboarding shop and we're big into longboard skateboarding and Skimboarding. You have to understand, this is a lifestyle, these are passions and when you have the privelege to share a passion with someone it's just SO energizing. Anyway, my message today is go visit your local Surf Shop and/or Wakeboard Shop and pick up the Vibe, and bring some of yours to share as well.
