Uno Cero

 What an honor. After winning ten world titles, the king himself flew into the metro area and was whisked away to the Mollusk compound for an interview with CNN. Lights, camera, action... Mr. Cheeks, where you at?  He could have done it anywhere in the world, but demanded that it must be at Mollusk.... I guess he's looking to boost his BK street cred...

Before he could get his jacket off, he went straight to the White Pony and was straight trippin' on the hydrodynamics....maybe his next pipe board?

" So tell me Kelly, what's it like to be the greatest surfer of all time?" ....Hmmm, I wonder?

Traveling the world Kelly has become sort of shaka connoisseur, Kelly was showing the different forms of the shaka thrown around the world. Here he's giving the Hawaiian version, which as he describes is "Barely a shaka at all, just a slight extension of the thumb and pinkie and a shimmy of the hand from side to side." Do it like da kine!

... here it is ladies and gents, the key to 10 world titles...

... a signature cutback.

... on the home front, the bat signal was a shinnin' over gotham today. Time to run...

... crisp and clean was how it flowed. Slow and low is the tempo...

... a tale of two cities. Babylon is a coming for ya. Run, run, run! Oppressor!

... a run of wettie gear is on the way. Try the sun on for size sonny! 

Bless it!

A Train to A Frames

Mollusk enjoyed an evening with Art Brewer Tuesday night. Thanks to all that came out and showed Art some positive vibrations. Classic stories flowed of bygone eras when some surfers lived more like rockstars and not for a beverage company called Rockstar...

 ... mahalo Art.

Bubb's fashioning a multipurpose beer koozie. I know it's getting to be that time of year for gloves, but damn!

With a soft grey blanket on the sky and a light tapping of morning showers, early pulses of what's to come peeled across an outer boroughs bank...

...early morning rays warming a waking city...
... a lone wahine exiting the water after an extra early dawn patrol. Where you at dudes? Under the covers while this wahine's getting covered...
...chartered boat trips are now available.

... could be the canals of Venice. Could be the canals where Stack Bundled.

... little keiki T.T. in the shop hard stance... Each one, teach one. No worries bruddah!

... An order of winter gear is en route. Caps, hooded tops, booties, gloves, winter suits and all that jazz. Stay tuned for the touch down.

Righty Tighty, Lefty Loosey

New volume of the Ruff Ryder street workout series being filmed on the S.P.R. property. For those not familiar with the double R workout, it involves  utilizing objects found in urban areas for workout equipment. This so happens to be the Williamsberg edition,  looking fly while you're working out. How chic?
A combination of a yoga position and a pull up...
  

Atlantis tired of using righty scissors, revenging with some beautifully formed lefts this weekend...

... early bird got the worm, no crowds, cover-ups, and pitching lips...

some distant beachies saw the reverse of a right coast super bank... makeable?

... and don't forget, Mr. Art Brewer will be in the Mollusk house Tuesday night, spending some QT signing books, talking story, and enjoying some suds. 6:00 pm rendezvous onwards into the evening. Surfy projections shown. Tell a friend, bring a friend!

... see you on the flip.
