NXT 
This is just one of those photos that makes you want to drop everything and max out your credit card and book a boat trip with your buddies. Mitch Coleborn is paddling out and Noa Deane is about to get really barreled. What more needs to be said? It’s all happening. —Nate Lawrence

What A Weird Feeling Or, how I learned to stop complaining and love the Volcom Pipe Pro
The Volcom Pipe Pro Wasn’t Terrible Yesterday And that’s coming from us.
North on 101 in a big white van With Andrew Doheny, Yago Dora, Dillon Perillo and Brendon Gibbens
15 hours in a 15 seater van is a lot of things. It’s super fun, disgusting, hilarious, ridiculous, illegal, terrifying and exactly what we want to be doing. And so we are. We started the day in the beast vehicle at Denny’s on Century Blvd. by LAX. We walked in to pick up Yago Dora,…
The Return to Thrash Have aerials and “clips” reached their ceiling?
I love airs. It’s why I’m here. It’s why I met Kai. It’s been my life’s work to highlight and get people amped on the latest in surfing. And airs have been the thing. Modern Collective was my project when I worked at another magazine and led me on the editorial path I’ve been on…
“Support the freaks as much as jocks.” From a conversation on the surf industry with Dave Rastovich in Europe
Sometimes all it takes is a few minutes with Rasta and all seems right again. From a recent hang in Europe while watching sets roll through at a French beach break: “Tell them how the groms don’t give as much of a fuck about contests as they used to. Heaps of surfers who groms look up…
Beach Goth remains freaky good The Growler’s music festival is the best Halloween party ever
I still have glitter in my hair and I’ve surfed and showered several times since the weekend. But I don’t mind, it’s a nice reminder of a really good time — and I think it’s why I like the Growler’s Beach Goth music festival so much. It’s ridiculous. Absolutely looney tunes. It’s a freak show…
So Long Japan A wild seven days in the streets come to an end and the edit bay opens
We’re literally, somehow, rather deliriously checking in at the airport to leave Japan. 7 days, 3 major cities. DIY spots in the countryside. Robot cafes, underground bars, getting the boot out of numerous epic skate spots. Hotel lobby life, way too much time in a van, copious amounts of time at Lawson, family mart, 7-Eleven,…
I quit eating meat now I have no friends The repercussions of a healthier lifestyle
I didn’t mean to do it. I hadn’t even seen Cowspiracy or Food Inc. yet. Or read the recent study about how processed meat can cause cancer. I just decided I didn’t want to eat anything I wasn’t comfortable killing on my own. So that narrowed my options. I thought nothing should have to die to keep…
And we’re in Japan With Arto Saari, Ishod Wair, Kevin Terpening, Raven Tershy and Peter Ramondetta
Somehow we’re here. In this wild, wild place and we are skateboarding. With some of the best dudes in the world. We’re once again following around legend Arto Saari and are joined by Japanese guru and photographer Rip Zinger. We’ve ridden bullet trains and skated ditches, ledges, seen the neon lights and the shows in Tokyo….
Bob Hurley Retires as CEO of Hurley Congratulations on a career dedicated to making our lives radder
Bob Hurley is a surfboard shaper. I know this because I have a surfboard he shaped for me. I also read it somewhere a long time ago, that he was a shaper way before running one of our favorite brands (Billabong), and then starting another (Hurley). But he got his start shaping. And I’ve always loved…
Postcard Oregon: Frame Grabs Short film starring Mikey Wright, Bryan Fox and Javier Mendizabal presented by Quiksilver
We’re not even really sure how this happened. But we’ve come to be thankful that it did. A random trip to Oregon with a surfer, skater and a snowboarder. And we sent our very own Michael Cukr to record what happens when the cultures collide. While we were there we hangout at Bryan Fox’s [pro…
A reason for radio silence What Youth Issue 12 is at the printer
Hi there. I want to begin by apologizing for the silent treatment. Between finishing our 12th issue and inserting ourselves in the sea on the hour, every hour (it’s been absolutely cooking around here), we’ve hardly had a chance to talk. You know, me and you. And that’s because all the planning and prep work in…
On the Unthinkable Mick Fanning and Julian Wilson brought us to tears
For whatever reason, I’ve been more emotional than usual the last week or two. I feel like I’ve been on the verge of tears at times. For no reason. Just highly volatile. A good inspirational Nike commercial will get me to well up and I’ll have to walk away. No chance at watching movies. People have…
The Brixton Broadcast Barcelona All night rock and roll on the surreal sea
What do you do when a place has no respect for time or light or dark or anything outside of enjoying and capturing every fleeting moment presented? Well, you melt right in. Welcome to Barcelona. Last weekend in the beautiful city of Barcelona, we snuggled right up to the Mediterranean and tagged along with our friends…
