Making sure every piece of chrome is glistening; readying it to be on display, in all its vintage glory, at the 30th Annual Dana Point Concours d’Elegance, June 16 and 17 at the St. Regis Monarch Beach resort. The Concours, in its three-decade his- tory, has earned a reputation among auto enthusiasts as one of the best car shows around, attracting collectors of some of the most important examples of automo- tive history in the world. To car enthusiasts like the Stinsons, the words “rare” and “important” are easily applied to their first ever entry into the event. “This is the first year I have entered the Dana Point Concourse, although I have entered a different car in two other shows. I chose to enter this one because of its history,” said Richard Stinson, adding that the fact that it takes place right here in Dana Point, close to home, was also a draw.

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.

  • Colorful Chris Johanson Is Building Something Awesomely Weird Right There on the Sand
    There’s an artistic renaissance afoot at the Vans US Open of Surfing this year, and the ever- colorful Chris Johanson is building something awesomely weird right there on the sand. If you’ve paid any attention to the worlds of skateboarding or art over the past few decades, chances are Johanson’s work has struck you with its colorful and humorous tongue-in-cheek impressionism, which has graced the bottom of skateboards and the walls of prestigious galleries alike. This year, Johanson and his friends are installing a trippy board shack on the beach at Huntington for the Vans Duct Tape Festival. Throughout the duration of the Vans US Open of Surfing (Saturday, July 27 through Sunday, August 4) the shack will be stuffed with boards shaped by Dane Reynolds, Leila Hurst, Tosh Tudor, Austin Kanfoush and local Orange County-based shapers. These boards will be free for all to ride each day at the event from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm. Johanson’s piece isn’t the only art you’ll find around Huntington in the coming days. Huntington’s own acclaimed artist and former pro skateboarder Ed Templeton will have a large installation on the sand, not to mention he’ll be showing work along with his wife, Deana, as well as Cole Barash, Nolan Hall, Cheryl Dunn, Grant Hatfield and Tobin Yelland at “You Should Have Been Here Yesterday”. The gallery show organized by Vans and the photo-based zine collective, Deadbeat Club opens this Friday, July 26 from 7:30 pm to 11:00 pm a the Costa Mesa Conceptual Arts Museum, and it won’t be one to miss.
