BAD BAD NOT GOOD
The premier for this short was last night. People came, people watched and people drunk beer and spirits. It was radical. If you weren’t at the premier, well, we forgive you and present this to you here to watch in full, online. Enjoy!
Bad Bad Not Good // Ryan Callinan
Ryan Callinan has had a rocky few years with injuries. Here is the teaser for his 12 min mini movie coming out very soon and it will be available for free download. Jay Grant has put this together so check it out.
NZ UNSPECIFIED
Travelling around NZ in camper van, zig zagging the island, drinking coffee, surfing, sleeping where ever the fuck you park, waking up and doing it all again. No time limit, 3 pals… It just goes on and on.
THE ANTHOLOGY
The world’s a-been-a-changing of late. Every man and his dog has a blog, a webpage, whatever. We are all now living most of our lives online. Everything is faster, quicker, shorter. Give me now and then give me again once my web page has refreshed. The net is a huge bin of knowledge, and crap, and we want it before it’s even ready to be devoured.
UP UNTIL NOW

YOU ARE EVERYTHING
I have spent many days in the Lacanau car park idling under the scorching sun waiting for heats. The gutters always reek of urine and the waves are usually tiny. But the following week everything changes. We are back in Hossegor. God I love this place. Waves, women and night life. All the boys are…
HAPPY MONDAY
Chopes has been fucking crazy the last few day’s. I think it’s safe to say those are some of the wildest sessions yesterday that’s ever been documented.
CLINT ALLAN – I ride…
Clint Allan is one of Australia’s best snowboarders and an absolute legend. I’ve known Clint for as long as I can remember and some of my best childhood memories involve the man. One thing that still sticks in my mind is the fact that for as long as i’ve known Clint he has carried some…
MEET: Jake Donlen
Field – I guess im a filmmaker, I write ‘plumber’ on those immigration cards on planes though. Feel like a dick writing ‘filmmaker’ Age – Stone Lives – Not sure what this means? If you mean how many lives have I got, id say im on my last. haha, fuck i just read that again now i get…
Jay Grant X Hawaii
Jay Grant’s a busy man. He has been in Hawaii filming for Billabong. He is also best friends and neighbours with Craig Anderson. About 3-4 years ago Craig bought a video camera worth about $3000, not so he himself could film, but to give to Jay to use for his own purposes. Next thing you…
One Day, One Slay
It’s almost common knowledge that most surfers spend around a year to film a section for a film. Many a surf thrown away with no clips to show because of over surfing for the camera. Well, preconceptions can now be squashed with this edit by Nick Damen from one surf with Ryan Callinan. It was…
A Life Celebrated
Andy was laid to rest yesterday in his home town of Hanalei Bay on Kauai. This clip courtesy of Billabong is very touching, bringing a tear to our eye.
REST IN PARADISE Andy, you will never be forgotten.
VS
Ryan Callinan x Jay Grant
We love Ryan. He’s a humble kid who always has a big smile on his face. He’s mellow as hell and is almost too easy to get along with. Personality aside, his surfing is out of this world. He has more flair and style than nearly anyone his age in the world. This lovely clip…
I WANNA BE LIKE ANDY
Like most young surfers competing on the junior series I was also sponsored by Billabong. A Winter/Summer pack at my doorstep, Bong sticker slapped on the nose, travelling domestically from team house to team house and then the big trip once a year to Hawaii, crammed into a house at Sunset Beach full of eager…
