So you’ve been to Hatteras a hundred times on a surf trip.  You just surfed s-turns for 8 hrs straight and now your in need of a killer meal, a new pair of baggies because yours got you all rashed up, a new leash because you got pitched over the falls and snapped yours, new fins because yours are too small for the heavy barrels and some sun block because you have haole rot to the max… Not to mention that your chick is bugging, because you made her sit on the beach the entire time with a janky camcorder trying to get clips of you.

What do you do?

Well, this is what we do… We go to Real Watersports.  They have an insane selection of surfboards, accessories, wetsuits, clothing for guys and girls, a super dank cafe, a fully stocked rental shop and a ton of other things… not to mention the most friendly and energetic staff we have ever met.  Its truly a one stop shop to get all the stuff you need along with something for your chick, so you can get another session in without her wigging out.

So next time your down there, don’t drive by Real Watersports thinking it’s just a kite shop… Stop by and be prepared to be blown away, While your there pick up some fresh ERGO gear!! Tell them we sent you!

We have been cruising around San Diego with Kris Markovich and Chad Bartie shooting some photos and visiting some accounts.  Here are a few shots of this wall ride that they have set up in the Surf Ride Warehouse along with some lifestyles.  Thanks to the crew at Surf Ride for letting us session the ramp!  If you stop by one of their shops, make sure you ask for ERGO! Enjoy!

Here is a Shawn Hale sequence featured on Thrahser’s Website from PHX Am. Shot by Joe Hammeke.  Enjoy!

So we headed over to the PHX Am this past weekend.  Besides the insane heat that led to the driest throats and noses that anyone has ever felt, we had a freaking blast.  On hand was Norman Woods, Shawn Hale, David loy and Andrew Cannon… along with ERGO Muckrunners… Victor Gariby, Mike Weshnak and Mike Mixson… Not to mention the rest of the skateboard industry.

Shawn and David made the semis, Norman skated, but was milking an injury, Cannon was putting in over time with Fuel Tv, Victor landed his first 3 tricks that the judges missed and the rest of us just partied!   The level of skateboarding that was going down was insane.  Our guys might have not made finals, but they were ripping the entire time.  Here are some photos from the trip…. Oh yeah Bad Brains was rikter… ask anyone there!

Since everyone else has already covered this way better than us here are some links.

Mike Vanaman walked away with a podium finish and a 6th place in the Open Mini Grom, Ryan Croteau got a 3rd in the Explorer Juniors and little bro Justin Croteau lost out in the semis.  Head over to ESM for full coverage.
