I have a bunch of work about to be hung at Chershore, (super snazzy girls clothing chain here) (chershore.com). I will have real pics from it when its hung, this is a little sample of the stuff, but so much is going. (pardon the iphone pics)
Everyone here has been so generous to spread Japanese fashion [...]
Japan rainy season is humid. When I woke up today to slip on my favorite shoes, I encountered a wonderful little surprise….a little forrest of mold had grown on my footwear. fun times, now i know to hang my shoes up, either that or plant mushrooms.
Since ive been in Kamakura I have yet to see the top of Mount Fuji, as there has been a foggy cloud thing sitting on it. It never clears, it just sits on it, so i see this massive base but no top, everyday. Kindof like a topless muffin. My friends tell me that it [...]
Hit up the local Japanese thrift store (not very thrifty, they have like 1000 dollar handbags), and saw a little gem I really wanted to try out.
This board was calling to me from the racks, like, ” Ty, come ride me and all of my goofy colors in some waist high reef closeouts…i love you [...]
Spent yesterday talking to the wonderful folks at CHER shore (nothing to do with the singer, Cher means “shell”), the store that basically makes me wish i was a girl (did I just admit that?, ok).
At any rate, if you have the chance, check them out online (chershore.com),
Today I’m on the hunt for more paint [...]
Last night (in honor of summer), we had a little BBQ on the waterfront, just with friends and the occasional steel pulse track.
Miyoshi got on grill duty and flipped, all kinds of non-American fare.
The sunset happened, and I cranked up the old itunes, the locals love some dancehall reggae and the occasional NYC dance beat.
Before [...]
We pulled straws and I lost, so i drove to TOKYO from kamakura. The only thing i can compare it to is going to the dentist hungover, or driving in Boston Massachusetts early in the morning. Tokyo, for lack of a better term is a giant shit show, where the shit costs tons of cash.
I [...]
Woke to surf the rivermouth today, the waves were awesome and the crowd was minimal, however the recent rain has made the rivermouth spit (what I believe is the equivalent of sewage grade water) into the lineup. As soon as we got to the car, my neck broke out in some weird hive type deal. [...]
Today I surfed a spot with Ryu Nakamura, I dont know the name of it, but ive named it “turtles” (as there was a massive dead sea turtle on the beach). It smelled like throw-up, but the waves were kindof fun.
I celebrated the rad session with a Soba noodle dinner, this place really gets me [...]
Today I woke up to surf, and grabbed my digital camera, not really sure why but when i went to turn it on, the screen showed some mystery dot, like a ball of lint or something, after hours of poking and rubbing and trying to find what was in or on the camera, i have [...]
