The Tragicomedy of the Surfers'commons
THE TRAGICOMEDY OF THE SURFERS ’ COMMONS DANIEL NAZER * I INTRODUCTION Ideally, the introduction to this article would contain two photos. One would be a photo of Lunada Bay. Lunada Bay is a rocky, horseshoe-shaped bay below a green park in the Palos Verdes neighbourhood of Los Angeles. It is a spectacular surf break, offering long and powerful rides. The other photograph would be of horrific injuries sustained by Nat Young, a former world surfing champion. Nat Young was severely beaten after a dispute that began as an argument over who had priority on a wave. These two images would help a non-surfer understand the stakes involved when surfers compete for waves. The waves themselves are an extraordinary resource lying at the centre of many surfers’ lives. The high value many surfers place on surfing means that competition for crowded waves can evoke strong emo- tions. At its worst, this competition can escalate to serious assaults such as that suffered by Nat Young. Surfing is no longer the idiosyncratic pursuit of a small counterculture. In fact, the popularity of surfing has exploded to the point where it is not only within the main- stream, it is big business. 1 And while the number of surfers continues to increase, * Law Clerk for Chief Judge William K.

Contesting the Lifestyle Marketing and Sponsorship of Female Surfers

Professional female surfers, in particular, are drawing greater media attention than ever before and are seen by surf companies as the perfect vehicle to develop this global industry further. Because lifestyle branding has been developed as a modern marketing strategy, this thesis examines the lifestyle marketing practices of the three major surfing companies Billabong, Rip Curl and Quicksilver/Roxy through an investigation of the sponsorship experiences of fifteen sponsored female surfers. The research paradigm guiding this study is an interpretive approach that applies Doris Lessing’s (1991) concept of conformity and Michel Foucault’s (1979) notion of surveillance and the technologies of the self. An ethnographic approach was utilised to examine the main research purpose, namely to: determine the impact of lifestyle marketing by Billabong, Rip Curl and Quicksilver/Roxy on sponsored female surfers. -

Blotto is no doubt one of the snowboard worlds most well known and respected photographers. When POP hit up Blotto for a portfolio, needless to say he was more than happy to help out... 42 Alex Kutaysov & 48 Mike Dee Alex Kutaysov is from the easternmost part of Russia known as the Kamchatka Peninsula. Kamchatka lies on the southern tip of Siberia, above Japan. If that’s not an interesting story then I don’t know what is. Similarly, Mike Doleman (aka Mike Dee) has just as a unique background. He is a third generation Australian merchant seafarer. So it’s surprising that they’re both incredibly talented snowboarders. 52 Simon Lyddiard & 54 Jamie Hawley Simon Lyddiard says that outside of skating, he’s a pretty boring guy. Sure, he likes to box, but that’s about it. Well that’s all well and good if you ignore the fact that’s he’s an amazing skateboarder. If he’s boring then I must be a billion playboy because we’re living in opposite land. And if you’re looking for someone to protect that opposite land then don’t count on Jamie Hawley. -

Hendricks COMMITTEE MEMBER: Dr. Camille O’Bryant COMMITTEE MEMBER: Dr. Jeffrey A. Jacobs iii ABSTRACT A QUALITATIVE EXPLORATION OF FEMALE SURFERS: RECREATION SPECIALIZATION, MOTIVATIONS, AND PERSPECTIVES By Tiyanya Anna Nourbakhsh DECEMBER 2008 Chair: Dr. William Hendricks Major Department: Recreation, Parks, and Tourism Administration This current study utilized recreation specialization and leisure motivation theory to explore the meanings, perspectives, and behaviors among female surfers. Despite numerous studies previously published regarding recreation specialization and leisure motivation related to activity participation, little research has been conducted on the activity of surfing from a female perspective. Data for this study were collected using in- depth, semi- structured interviews of nine women surfers from the California Central Coast. Content analyses of the data involved coding and identifying key themes, patterns, and categories. The dominant themes significant within recreation specialization included past participation (e.g., preceding activities to eventual participation and wave/swell conditions), perceived skills (i.e., skills important to surfing, perceived skill level), commitment (e.g., central to life activity, central leisure activity, affective attachment, and adoption of social/cultural values), and enduring involvement (e.g., attraction and sensory enjoyment). -

Peace, Love, Surf: Growing up in the 60’S (California Style)
Peace, Love, Surf: Growing Up In The 60’s (California Style) Peace, Love, Surf: Growing Up In The Sixties (California Style) Last update: February 18, 2017 Prologue It is my totally unbiased opinion that I grew up in what must be considered one of the most controversial and exciting times in the twentieth century, especially that narrow band of time during the sixties to mid-seventies. There were a lot of things going on like the Watts riots, the Cold War, the so called lunar landings, The Assassinations JFK, RFK, Martin , the Viet Nam war, People’s Park in Berkeley, the Monterey Pop Festival, the Kent State killings, Chicago Democratic Convention, Woodstock, SLA, Watergate, The Beach Boys, the Beatles, The Doors, Bob Dylan, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, the best music ever to be recorded, and, subsequently, the loss of J cubed (Jimi, Jim and Janis), late night sitcoms with Johnny, SLN, high school, college, presidential resignations and pardons, and more. It was like a pre-cyberspace overload era. Hence, given all that I went through during this short time on planet Earth, I felt the title of these short stories covers the appropriate time spectrum. There was a saying for the Viet Nam war that went around in this era called, “Peace, Love, Dove”. I took it and made a Page 1 of 34 Peace, Love, Surf: Growing Up In The 60’s (California Style) slight modification to reflect what it was like to grow up when surfing was taking off as a California craze; pray for Peace, free Love, let’s Surf. -
