On Thursday, July 2nd, ZJ Boarding House and Stoked Mentoring present THE STOKED SUMMER SERIES at Air Conditioned Supper Club (625 Lincoln Blvd, Venice) featuring live music and a special screening of the film Tales From The Blackvan. Doors open at 7:30pm.

The Freedom Artists Surf Series is always a treat. Each summer amateurs, heavies, and legends come out en masse for its good vibes - the friends, the families, the food, the surf. This month, more of the same. Guys like Killian Garland, Adam Virs, Conrad Carr, and Steven Lippman were on hand for the proceedings, Nathan Carroll won the big purse in the Pro Division, and good times were had by all. Link to SurfNews for photos.

Need a reason to study? We got 10 – the best surfing colleges in whole US — including three options in Santa Cruz, Santa Barbara and San Diego. So hit the books now, and you can hit the waves harder later on.

Santa Barbara Water Quality
Ventura Water Quality Help Make Surfboards More Sustainable with the Surfboard Cradle-to-Grave Project. Surfboards are notorious for the pollution they generate; interest is growing to design a board from "green" materials, but without a life cycle assessment (LCA) of existing polyurethane and epoxy surfboards, it is impossible to do so. The Surfboard Cradle-to-Grave Project is developing the first-ever LCA of a surfboard, to fill this information gap. http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=FAeca1eH6GmpeGKpMlzvtQ_3d_3d


You can help out the Project by filling out this survey, describing
your surfing habits and board quiver; the survey will take less than
10 minutes to complete.
