definition of a poser is some one who dresses the part but does not do the act. ie a guy drives around town in his car with a surfboard on his surfboard rack pulls up to the beach puts on his trunks waxes his board walks around with his stick under his arm and never paddles out. just poses. (actually heard this happens a lot in florida.) what was that movie with the big boat de caprio stared in? anyway phenomenal actor and a great movie. millions of people enjoyed that movie. take a vote is caprio a posing actor? watched dane in person a few + times, one time in front of the masses a lowers last summer, hundreds of people enjoyed those sessions. take a vote is dane a poser? those guys are not posers there the real deal and really good/exceptional at what they do. speaking for my self i’d pay to watch em again many times. dane is a virtuoso at what he does. just my two cents. (sorry long winded.)
shelly winters your a cowgirl maybe you should move back to texas where you born, leave us and surfy surfy alone. we love dane, his surfing, his creativity and the fact he’s a real individual going down his own path. we got danes back… either be cool and respectful on here or leave. danes surfing is inspiring, and so is his work ethic. talk your crap else where.
I’m so blessed to live here in SD North County right by the coast, and actually be able to surf daily if I want. Danes blessed with so much talent he’s healthy and gets to surf and make money on top of that. All these great positive things that us surfers, residents of SD get to enjoy… then I come on here and read all the pessimistic negative, pessimistic negative, negative, negative, negative comments. Unreal! Couldn’t imagine being a pessimist and SO negative? Killer sunrise right now, slight offshore surfs suppose to pick up, killer weather, stoked! and stoked Dane’s on the cover of surfer. Read the article… even more RESPECT for the CA legend.
I find this interesting. I think Dane is a great surfer and a creative guy. But I do agree with the so called” Negative” stuff. I don’t view it as negative at all. Amazing how strongly people respond. Short sighted to me. But why is so vehemently responded to. He is a poser but so what?
Why is it white guys alway whine and cry O00ooo thats s0Ooo negative negative negative. Spoiled white guy. When was last time a brown guy was on the cover of your white surfing publication
JEALOUS PESSIMISTS TALKING SH%T. LET YOUR SURFING DO THE TALKING, WE’LL BE WATCHING! DANES A BAD ASS, LET SEE YOU PADDLE OUT WITH HIM, WE’LL BE WATCHING AND FILMING YOU. BET HE’LL KICK YOUR PESSIMISTIC ASS! THEN WE’LL POST IT ON HERE AND YOU TUBE, WE’LL SEE WHO THE REAL POSER IS. could you imaging the comments. Step up sh%t talkers!
Vehement passion defense for Dane, and for the greater good, that’s what you do when you sincerely really care about someone that’s had a great positive impact on your life. “YOUR RESPOND TO.” Would NOT do that for a negative impact… wouldn’t even comment or care.
I’m sorry, I just can’t get behind the hyperbole surrounding Dane. He’s been a no show for most of the year, with a variety of lame excuses, and he’s wasting his talent making rip off T-Shirts like the ones the sell in Urban Outfitter. I just read the article on Pottz in Stab Magazine. That’s an icon of the sport. Or Curren, or Slater, or Carrol, but this kid has been spoiled by an overblown contract. Be nice to see somebody using their natural talent instead of wasting it with a lame web blog.
Jeff did you read the article in surfer on him? Being respectful here, I hear what your saying but after I read the article I kinda change my mind about the guy. Dane is like Dan Malloy, Dave Rastovich, J Obrien, Tudor etc. he-they don’t fit into the established system of competitive surfing like Pottz or AI . Dane stated he’s not into being world champ year after year after year. He enjoys to compete a little bit but that the extent of it. Not caring about the points, surfing for passion etc.”They” pay him for his talent not all the points.That was my impression.
In the last six months, Reynolds needed to exist commercially speaking. We were told about wonderful surfwear, splendid boards and scores of little things to buy, scores of reasons to spend your money. I wonder how long it will last, I mean, how long Reynolds, quiksilver and the surf media will be able to use the Reynolds’ brand. In fact, it looks like we’re close to the end, since Reynolds is back in a comp. 6 months of emptiness, except for Quik and Reynolds bank accounts.
Special mention for the ugliest thing that was released during such a time, those shirts drawn by a so-called young artist a couple of months ago.
Well……I vote he is a poser. He’s posing for a picture. He surfs posing for the camera. He’s poses and he makes money off an image. He sells himself. He’s a true materialist hippie soul surfer capitalist. Andy Warhol would smile. Nothing wrong with that at all. Or is there?
Here’s how it is. This has absolutely nothing to do with Dane the poser. I know all your fragile surfing ego’s are bruised and here is why. Because you project your own self image onto his. Why because that is the way of american advertising and the way of our brains(never mind the mind that is something different all together). ” Get the Dane Look”. Dane sells. Leonardo sells. Opra sells. We project our selves onto them and buy their boards, cloths, and magazines. The magazines sell advertisement to sell their products. We are all connected.
I get much more inspiration from the the guy who’s walking to his car stoked from a good surf and go’s off the work as a cashier at the CVS drug store to collect a minimum wage to take care of his kids and family.
The majority of us surfers in So.Cal are white upper middle class white folks living in the sun and happy because this is the way it works. That is the way it is. I’m happy with it and would not want it any other way. Or? would I ? Perhaps.
Look, yea my kids a poser but sometimes you gotta sell your ass. There is nothing wrong that. Danes a great kid and I’m proud him . I’ve taught him well.
YEE HAA. THAT’S A CLIP COVER OF THAT SONG. THANKS!!
WELL THAT PRETTY MUCH COVERS IT!!! .NO MORE POSTS. CLOSE THE DOORS! FUCK MY MOM, JESUS, THE SURF INDUSTRY, BURT REYNOLDS& LONI ANDERSON, LATE NIGHT TELEVISION, SURFER MAGAZINE, DANE AND HIS HIPPIEDOM, ALL BLOGGERS, YOU, SURFYSURFY, GOD, GODDESSES AND HERMAPHRODITES. FUCK YOU AND GOOD NIGHT.
man you guys don’t hate dane? you love him? he’s trying to make an HONEST living in this messed up worlds system the best he can, and you talk a lot smack on here about him and his company. couldn’t imagine what you would say if you hated the guy?
I hope dane bails his sponsors, his blog, and the whole surfing industry and community, and then goes and works for cvs pharmacy and surfs on the weekend this way he can do what these people want him to do, and not what he want’s to do. this way the commentators will be happy and dane wont. THEN he’ll get some very nice great uplifting comments on here.
You would rather have Dane picking strawberries? Thought you wanted him to work at CVS? Do you pick strawberries? Thats what I thought… THIEF! Now go grip a strawberry and make a honest living and have some fun brownie.
Dane Reynolds probably rides a fixie while wearing that stupid hat of his listening to Velvet Undergound’s Greatest Hits on his iPod Touch thinking of some ironic quip to write on the bottom his newest alternative surfboard.
Seriously, he’s a great surfer and all but his poseur hipster laissez-faire image sucks.
you should go over danes house and tell him how to look and what hat isn’t stupid and what to put on the bottom of his boards so he can be like you and not like him. seriously he is a great surfer.
All these little babies on here crying with their pacifiers in there mouths pointing their finger at this and that. Let your surfing do the talking! How embarrassing. I’ll make sure none of my co workers and crew, and non surfing friends don’t see this sight, i’d _____ cringe. You guys serious? Dane kills it who cares about all that other shit.
Hey everyone, There is a Dane Reynolds post on the Taped Off blog. Lets all go over there and talk a bunch of trash on someone we don’t personally know!
you said” I’ll make sure none of my co workers and crew, and non surfing friends don’t see this sight, i’d _____ cringe.
sounds as though you have a control problem. As is it because you don’t want them to see your comment.
You said: You guys serious? Dane kills it who cares about all that other shit.
Like I said dane is a great surfing talent. No doubt. But we do care about the other stuff. Deeply. Do you wear Dane wear? Why? Are you blinded by the talent. People that are given talent by the god almighty should always be held to the fire. Fire and brimstone. Now… like the before said shall we all listen to the song again ; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fJu6Up9w2Hc
Hey everyone, There is a Dane Reynolds post on the Taped Off blog. Lets all go over there and talk a bunch of trash on someone we don’t personally know!
Ok. lets go…no kidding well maybe. This is not really about Dane. Sharpen up kid
The new issue of Blah Blah Blah came out. In it, you will see that you NEED to go buy the new 2012 blah blah blah. It will make you punt higher (landings not included).
Now get off your smart phone and pay attention to your geometry class. Cause wiki-tard ain’t gonna get you a passing grade.
All the media wants to do is have these kids throw away any goals and just be posers like themselves. Competitive structure is the only thing that legitimizes anything, now granted its not for everyone, but these guys that act like they dont care and still enter into events are a bunch of bull S—ters. they care more then anyone else and are the guys that sit around and write terrible things about all there peers that are competitively successful.
No question that the money in surfing these days is harming the integrity of the sport. From covering up Irons drug addiction to sell merchandise, to lying about discovering waves (Rip Curl), to these stupid surf videos like the drifter either trying to persuade us they’re off teh beaten track and down with the locals (whatever)or trying to make out ordinary guys like Dane Reynolds as rock stars, to trying to get surfers to buy ridiculous boards only pros can ride, to saying they’re down to earth and green and making patronizing comments about the locals when they jet their surfers and camera crew around the world and swan about on jetskis, the commercial world of surfing lost the plot years ago.
I watched the green iguana the other night (early nineties), and the contrast was amazing. Sure plenty of sponsorship, but the surfers were surfers having a good time, not wannabe hollywood posers.
Thank god for your average joe surfer keeping the sport how it should be, a down to earth lifestyle.
I think some people are upset because they have purchased Dane wear and are decked out in Quicksilver shirts, Van sneakers, Drink monster energy drinks and can’t afford a channel island stick but do have boost mobile.
Daager good one, sad but true. Look and dig for the root of a problem and you’ll find $$, and the love of money is the root…….
“trying to get surfers to buy ridiculous boards only pros can ride.” And you are right hands down, I never bought a K chip early 90’s. That comment is also very true. Most people prefer to ride a 9 6″ Christenson for 1,495.00 + tax, or a 9 6″ kookbox for 1,569.00 + tax. I usually can find those boards used for 950.00 Which leads me to my next comment, I usually go dumpster diving on the weekends and I actually have found some nice short boards : ) Welcome to planet earth.
So O OOOOOOOO, the message i’m getting is you guys hate Dane and his surfing but you love the corporate sponsors? And your rrrrrrr planing a boat trip with them as long as you can have you rrrrr own jet ski in the line up and dd your gonna try and get Nike to merge with Target and CVS so they can hold the Search contest next year at Swamies. And Brownie is gonna be the judge so he can sell his “stuff” to the white crowd and make an honest living. I know I left out a lot here…(probably forgot the strawberry pickers are gonna be running security?) But I think I GOT IT! OH!! almost forgot! Daager is gonna surf solo in the expression session with the 219 Swamies locals on there 1,569.00 Kookbox’s. NOW I got it. Thanks, Goodnight, and we’ll see you tomorrow. … Learn something new everyday.
Hey you forgot that it will all be shot on a DSLR camera slightly out of focus with some really hip cool music like they use in commercials that are trying to be hip and to top it off we will call it….”Daneosaurios Rex™” and later with the Redux and commentary.
Your not supposed to be self involved when your a pro surfer? Ha??
The problem is the white males? Were all HUMANS -*melanin*
Attitudes ARE the problem. Attitude is EVERYTHING. All this DRAMA QUEEN SHIT ABOUT EVERYTHING ELSE THAT YOU HATE, focus and comment on the THE ACT AND TALENT OF DANES SURFING. Those things you hate so much go out and CHANGE those things instead of bitching about it. With the internet it’s even easier to boycott or get your point across and get the masses on your side… Reminds me of the people who don’t go and vote, then they bitch and complain about the President for 4-8 years.
I didn’t vote for bush i’m independent. but here’s my question, if you were president knowing the slaughter of humans saddam hussein did in his own country, marching his troops into kuwait in the early 90’s trying to kill all the kuwaities all to get the earl, etc etc etc. when the united nations and the US tried 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17 times to inspect for WMD and he wouldn’t let em. answer my question what would of you done as president? when you ask people why they hate bush that’s the answer i always get is be cause he started the war and went in there. what would you have done? it’s a lose lose situation. if your grandpa was jewish and bush went in and took out hitler to prevent grandpa and 6,000,000, others from getting slaughtered you’d hate bush THEN. i hate all this shit as much as you, DON’T TURN YOUR BACK ON EVIL. you just stick with obama drama. in all my years have NEVER seen a rock star president like obama! i didn’t even know that existed? he should just keep going on the view and letterman, and have more parties, him and reverend white should just get up there AND PREACH IT!!!!!!!! talk about a rock star! THAT dued needs to dress like a pimp daddy! dane for president wane rich for vice! 🙂 i thought obamadrama was sending all the troops home when he becomes president? get dane in there…

If you follow the comments it’s the law of physics really, I’m serious. WHY does it have always come back to politics? Follow the comments A kook doesn’t stick to a subject; doesn’t have something nice, or says it in a respectful manner, and says it like a little bayyyybe “you probably voted for bush.” THEN THE LAWS OF PHYSICS KICK IN. I’m sure some of you know what i’m talking about. Read a comment then follow the reactions. Some people are push overs and some people fn shove back. When that one guy or girl said, “Dane we got your back,” by reading these comments I think that was their way of following thru. Happy surfing and smile in the line up.
I personally think Surfy Surfy should have Dane Reynolds over to their surf boutique on a upcoming Saturday afternoon so we can get these shit talkers over there to discuss or say there shit to Danes face. Probably wont show though? …COWARDS. A paragraph up talks about the laws of physics, good one. How bout the laws of karma, or the laws of what you sow so shall you reap. Mark my words on the 13th of October 2011 @ 10.05 pm one day someone or MANY, many people are gonna be talking shit about YOU and your sorry wanna be ass life. Remember that! remember the # 13 oct 13th. Probably be exposed on all your little secrets too. So keep talking your shit about Dane. Bet it’ll come back about your wife, mom or daughter too. …Straighten up.
Grow up and stop with your whiney little bitch. One day the brown man will take back the land and beaches that was ours. Whitey has massacred the indigenous north american indians. Massacred the buffalo. Raped the land for oil. Built housing tracts for as far as the eye can see. All for what? Red bull?
Threats to a wife? a mom? or a DAUGHTER. My god. Shame on you.
this is just a blog. People are throw their opinions , ideas and humor around. I think even Dane would be laughing at most of this. BUT to throw threats like that and you talk about Karma?
guess there’s a couple definitions of a poser here? guess all of you pretty much fit into one definitions of posers. (and some of you the other.) don’t believe me open up one of your photo albums or photo files on your computer. just grab or click on a photo send it to surfer, they’ll publish it, and wha la, poser. fact is, take a good look, your a poser a thousand plus fold. you pessimist shit talkers are lucky i gotta go to work right now, or i’d sit here all day sipin brewskies and throw back the shit in your face that you talk about dane. i respect dane and what he does, you don’t that’s cool, nothing wrong with that, maybe just ONCE try and be cool about it and disagree with a cool attitude, or be respectfully in your comments, then you won’t start your little negative shit talking war. thanks to you haters i’m gonna take the kids this weekend get em some quiksilver and roxy clothes, and a channel island T for me. hey dane we love and respect you, try and always REMEMBER, AND FOCUS ON THE GOOD PEOPLE, not all the bad, NEGATIVE evil wannabe people. your ALWAYS gonna have those kinds of people HERE on this planet, the bottom feeders.
Angry ( IDOL WORSHIP). guess there’s a couple definitions of a poser here? guess all of you pretty much fit into one definitions of posers. (and some of you the other.) don’t believe me open up one of your photo albums or photo files on your computer. just grab or click on a photo send it to surfer, they’ll publish it, and wha la, poser. fact is, take a good look, your a poser a thousand plus fold. you pessimist shit talkers are lucky i gotta go to work right now, or i’d sit here all day sipin brewskies and throw back the shit in your face that you talk about dane. i respect dane and what he does, you don’t that’s cool, nothing wrong with that, maybe just ONCE try and be cool about it and disagree with a cool attitude, or be respectfully in your comments, then you won’t start your little negative shit talking war. thanks to you haters i’m gonna take the kids this weekend get em some quiksilver and roxy clothes, and a channel island T for me. hey dane we love and respect you, try and always REMEMBER, AND FOCUS ON THE GOOD PEOPLE, not all the bad, NEGATIVE evil wannabe people. your ALWAYS gonna have those kinds of people HERE on this planet, the bottom feeders.
I can see it now , some grouchy white guy sitting at his computer in his jockey shorts, scratching his scrotum sack, having morning coffee, clearing the sleepiness from his eyes and writing the above vitriol.
ANGRY (IDOL WORSHIP.) that’s what you call it. i call it justified anger. what do you expect when you leave a disrespectful comments about someone that another person cares about and those comments are hitting below the belt? when you offend people, are those people supposed to just be silent? yea that person in the above paragraph could of not been as tacky or used bad language to get their point across. always ask yourself whats the motive here WHY is he or she saying this?? i call that justified anger. …just disagreeing with you in a cool manner.
A man walked into a bar and asked the bartender, “Hey, have you heard the latest Dane Reynolds joke?” The bartender replied, coldly, “No. And I’ll have you know I’m a big Dane Reynolds Devotee.He’s my idol.” That’s O.K.,” said the man, “I’ll talk slow.”
Happy we live Hawaii. Madlanders…don’t bring your hatred here…it won’t work. Let your good works be seen and don’t dwell in the negative vibe. Live aloha.
Weird but I see more of a heavier negative vibe coming from the people trying to defend or man up for dane. Seems pretty valid being upset about commercialization of something. I’m sure Danes in a pretty heavy position for a young guy. I hope he does well with what ever he does. Peace
compete for what? for you? what does he have to prove to you? competitive surfing? like judging rembrandt vs van gogh? kinda subjective… but hopefully they will get the judging down a little better with the air tricky stuff. please call mr. tudor down in la jolla and demand that he competes to on a 6 1″ thruster squash. don’t just single out dane. and don’t forget D malloy he needs to get back out there for you too. then they won’t be flakes they’ll be MEN.
is it possible for surfy surfy to set up a picture with dane and 44 bonzers? love to see what the bottom feeders would have to say? i think these comments in a way carried over from the picture of dane’s boards comments. can’t wait till the next one…

When I was totally 32 like my parents took us camping, like whatever, we hung out & ohmygod, there were these fish in the river. I think they were trout, anyway when I got in the water one would totally like chase me or whatever. I like wanted to jump out & scream, know what I mean except it was kind of like whatever, cool — I mean, at least someone wants to find out who I am. Now you’re like staring at me, eyes totally unblinking and I can’t help thinking dude, you are so. cold. I mean, if I reach out will you like dart into the dark, or will you be a mammal already, know what I mean? ‘Cuz just give me the word, I’m totally screaming, scrambling for shore. I’m like there, dude. Totally.
Gul I love you, Straight up Fo’Sho. Or I wouldna told dem ova girls not to call me no mo.
I knowed it was true, the first day I seed you. Why you thank I do, the thangs I do?
Remember how I use ta wine and dine you, Schlits Malt Liquor and Bar-Ba-Que. I gave you a bubble baze and fed you grapes. Dey was on sale that week a dolla ninety-eight.
Romanic evenins after dark, Skreet light walks around the block.
Like the very first time, you came ova to my crib. And you got all scared, cause that roach was on yo Tims.
I was right dare, with a can of spray. To be yo Super Hero, and save the day.
I ain’t even pay my light bill, so I can take you to the club….. Don’t knock ova does candles and burn up my rug!
And dat nite we made luv, for a long liddle bit of time. I hope you got yours, cause I Sho’nuff got mine.
I woke up early and made you breakfast in bed. Sep fo I ain’t have no juice, no grits, and no eggs. Didn’t have no cereals and was fresh outta milk, so we had some toast and some potada chips.
I use to rub lotion on yo feets, and massage yo back. I found you some glue, when you lost one of your tracks.
Now what man you knowed, ever loved you like dis. Gul please just take my name off that child support list.
if snoop and dane had a baby it would be these two characters, guess we could call em digglets. now get back on the subject of your negativity, so we can respond.
I don’t get it. Dane surfs a bunch of skateboard tricks and everyones idol worshiping the guy. How about the skaters that do it on a hard surface. Tricks are for babies.
most all stages that are performed on are stationary. ie- a basketball court a skate ramp, a skate park, the list goes on. the ocean is not stationary, and when something is NOT moving and changing you can practice 10hrs a day for 10 yrs. like a basket ball court. my opinion it’s harder to do impressive stuff (what ever that may be to someone,) on waves, there moving… the conditions are never the same. just my opinion. and you know what they say about opinions? tricks are for kids, until you see it done on a 6′ back 8 feet from your face in the water.
surfing is dancing and martial arts (depending on ones’ style/approach,) with God in and about in the hidden universe (the ocean.) just 1 person’s opinion in the 7hundred billion people here on planet earth. accident or design? is this a trick question about dane? bet i’m gonna here it for my comment now!
We won-the good positive comments won over the bad negative comments.
You lose- because good always wins in the LONG run over bad and evil.
The game- is laws of psychics, negative hurtful comments begot negative back in your face (or computer.) comments.
If were so dumb why does this stuff BUG!!!!! YOU!!!!!? If were so dumb why are you using your brain right now to to try and figure out how to fire back at someone answering YOUR QUESTIONS wich were dumb. WE LOVE DANE! Anyone that love’s wins. Anyone that negative/hates…
my interpretation of what that guy is trying to say but misspelled physics, is for every action there’s a reaction. thus you post a negative disrespectful comment, your gonna get the same back. Same goes for posting a positive comment. just my interpretation? but there is some truth to that. does remind me of one our family members though, who is very negative. if you look on here where there’s zero comments, there’s also zero negative comments…
Dude you let me explain a few things to you . There is no definitive law when it come to emotion. What you are talking about is Newtons Laws of motion. The mutual forces of action and reaction between two bodies are equal, opposite and collinear. You have to understand that they need each other and cease to exist with out each other. Emotions are a much more mercurial subtle source. Unpredictable yet we can learn much about or reactions to certain circumstances. As far viewing things negative I personally don’t see or have reacted to any of the posts as even remotely negative. If the tone of the commenter is reminding you of one of your family members and you then are reacting to really to your family member. Because after all what you’re looking at is some letters that create words that create sentences that you interpret and process into what you like. Much love dude.
a negative comment about some one you respect whether that be a family member or dane reynolds can be predicted, and that negative premeditated comment can be controlled and can be prevented if a person chooses to. that’s NOT an emotion. that being said, ( do a test, or read the crap on youtube.) when someone say’s a hurtful negative thing hitting below the belt with there words, (my % could be wrong here) but 50 % of the people being offended will fire back, and spit back in there face (sometimes just as bad and sometimes in a respectful manner,) and the other 50% won’t say a word and allow that person to get away with said hurtful comment/act. that’s the only point i wanted to make. so the question is just for respect sake here, if your close family member has a cool youtube video with their dogs or something and some idiot starts spewing negative comments are you and you and your family gonna type something back? some people will go off on em, and some won’t. i’m not saying what is the right thing to do, i’m saying 50% of the people will protect their family member because they care about them. some people care about dane and will fireback, could even be a family member of dane’s? i do like the crazy analogy or where there’s an action there’s a reaction. pay a REALLY nice compliment to your mom or girlfriend. then the next day say something foul and offensive. tell me the REACTION to each comment said? peace bruddah & i don’t think anybody accused YOU of anything negative…
I think you are getting a lot of misinformation from the Internet.
Are you saying emotion plays no part in your REACTION-(put bold because you did)? Hmmm.
If I say “YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT THE FUCK YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT MORON!” you don’t respond viscerally? Then I would ask why or why not did you respond viscerally? What was my intent as the writer to you? What are you protecting? And Why?
I tell my boyfriend to fuck off all the time. His response depends on my relationship with him. The time of month. My intent. It also is a face to face exchange. Not just some typed words on a blog that I read into and create a narcissistic formula.
I would assume that ALMOST all people would be hurt and offended if some one call them a dumb piece of crap, but then there is a very small percentage of that would find it hysterically funny.
emotion does play apart on the recipient. but the recipient did not premeditate the negative hateful fowl comment. the person typing a negative below the belt comment is not acting on full emotion. there acting on is some cases, just to find something negative about somebody that’s successful. ie surfy post a pic a shaped board the negative community will knock it, but they wont’ or will NEVER post, or put a pic of their shape, BECAUSE THEY CAN’T EVEN SHAPE A BOARD! my favorite is when people post themselves playing an instrument on youtube. then people post hateful premeditated comments, but we never see the commentators posting their talent, BECAUSE THEY CAN’T PLAY? yes your right the recipient will have/add emotion in there. i just meant if you leave a negative comment, your most likely to get a negative comment back, that goes with a positive too. now if you weren’t on the rag all the time, and such a narcissist, and weren’t a raider fan you probably would be pleasant to be around, and fun to talk too? 🙂 you tell your BF to F off “ALL THE TIME?” be careful, coarse gesturing can come back and bite you int the nose (not the ass,) where everyone can see. peace. Go DANE
Why would you want to premeditate a negative hateful fowl comment? What are you protecting? Your analysis doesn’t hold any water because it’s not objective at all. All you do is react because you are in a constant fight or flight mode and very easy to provoke into response. Just the way the advertisers like it.
Wow! I really learned what kind of people, community is on this blog. How sad. Couldn’t imaging the way some’ of these people must act in the water? I’m outta here. A shame to Surfy and the surfing community. “If you don’t have anything nice to say………”
Man I get it! Leave a negative comment, and there gonna leave one back. Pretty simple to me. From what I get on the last two posts of Dane and the four hundred comments is that, there are a lot of people on here who “can dish it out but can’t take it.” Keep em coming Surfy Surfy! Dane, Sl8, L8t!
Since I might be the 200th comment, I’m ordering one of those square tale thruster Dane boards! The only catch it’s gonna be a 11 6″ so I will, and can run over you kooks! Knock the hate out of you.
My name is Robert and I have a problem. I am addicted to trolling people on internet discussion forums. I randomly picked this one. i know NOTHING about surfing or who Dane Reynolds is. For years, I have been registering unique personas, all with one goal in mind – to entertain myself by ruffling the feathers of other posters. If you have been around for a while, chances are that I have trolled you.

October 12, 2011definition of a poser is some one who dresses the part but does not do the act. ie a guy drives around town in his car with a surfboard on his surfboard rack pulls up to the beach puts on his trunks waxes his board walks around with his stick under his arm and never paddles out. just poses. (actually heard this happens a lot in florida.) what was that movie with the big boat de caprio stared in? anyway phenomenal actor and a great movie. millions of people enjoyed that movie. take a vote is caprio a posing actor?
watched dane in person a few + times, one time in front of the masses a lowers last summer, hundreds of people enjoyed those sessions. take a vote is dane a poser? those guys are not posers there the real deal and really good/exceptional at what they do. speaking for my self i’d pay to watch em again many times. dane is a virtuoso at what he does. just my two cents. (sorry long winded.)

October 12, 2011I’m so blessed to live here in SD North County right by the coast, and actually be able to surf daily if I want. Danes blessed with so much talent he’s healthy and gets to surf and make money on top of that. All these great positive things that us surfers, residents of SD get to enjoy… then I come on here and read all the pessimistic negative, pessimistic negative, negative, negative, negative comments. Unreal! Couldn’t imagine being a pessimist and SO negative? Killer sunrise right now, slight offshore surfs suppose to pick up, killer weather, stoked! and stoked Dane’s on the cover of surfer.

October 12, 2011I’m sorry, I just can’t get behind the hyperbole surrounding Dane. He’s been a no show for most of the year, with a variety of lame excuses, and he’s wasting his talent making rip off T-Shirts like the ones the sell in Urban Outfitter.
I just read the article on Pottz in Stab Magazine. That’s an icon of the sport. Or Curren, or Slater, or Carrol, but this kid has been spoiled by an overblown contract.
Be nice to see somebody using their natural talent instead of wasting it with a lame web blog.
Anonymous
October 12, 2011Jeff did you read the article in surfer on him? Being respectful here, I hear what your saying but after I read the article I kinda change my mind about the guy. Dane is like Dan Malloy, Dave Rastovich, J Obrien, Tudor etc. he-they don’t fit into the established system of competitive surfing like Pottz or AI . Dane stated he’s not into being world champ year after year after year. He enjoys to compete a little bit but that the extent of it. Not caring about the points, surfing for passion etc.”They” pay him for his talent not all the points.That was my impression.
Anonymous
October 12, 2011Dane is beginning to be a parody of himself.
In the last six months, Reynolds needed to exist commercially speaking. We were told about wonderful surfwear, splendid boards and scores of little things to buy, scores of reasons to spend your money.
I wonder how long it will last, I mean, how long Reynolds, quiksilver and the surf media will be able to use the Reynolds’ brand. In fact, it looks like we’re close to the end, since Reynolds is back in a comp. 6 months of emptiness, except for Quik and Reynolds bank accounts.
Special mention for the ugliest thing that was released during such a time, those shirts drawn by a so-called young artist a couple of months ago.

October 12, 2011Well……I vote he is a poser. He’s posing for a picture. He surfs posing for the camera. He’s poses and he makes money off an image. He sells himself. He’s a true materialist hippie soul surfer capitalist. Andy Warhol would smile. Nothing wrong with that at all. Or is there?
Here’s how it is. This has absolutely nothing to do with Dane the poser. I know all your fragile surfing ego’s are bruised and here is why. Because you project your own self image onto his. Why because that is the way of american advertising and the way of our brains(never mind the mind that is something different all together). ” Get the Dane Look”. Dane sells. Leonardo sells. Opra sells. We project our selves onto them and buy their boards, cloths, and magazines. The magazines sell advertisement to sell their products. We are all connected.
I get much more inspiration from the the guy who’s walking to his car stoked from a good surf and go’s off the work as a cashier at the CVS drug store to collect a minimum wage to take care of his kids and family.
The majority of us surfers in So.Cal are white upper middle class white folks living in the sun and happy because this is the way it works. That is the way it is. I’m happy with it and would not want it any other way. Or? would I ? Perhaps.

October 12, 2011No question that the money in surfing these days is harming the integrity of the sport. From covering up Irons drug addiction to sell merchandise, to lying about discovering waves (Rip Curl), to these stupid surf videos like the drifter either trying to persuade us they’re off teh beaten track and down with the locals (whatever)or trying to make out ordinary guys like Dane Reynolds as rock stars, to trying to get surfers to buy ridiculous boards only pros can ride, to saying they’re down to earth and green and making patronizing comments about the locals when they jet their surfers and camera crew around the world and swan about on jetskis, the commercial world of surfing lost the plot years ago.
I watched the green iguana the other night (early nineties), and the contrast was amazing. Sure plenty of sponsorship, but the surfers were surfers having a good time, not wannabe hollywood posers.
Thank god for your average joe surfer keeping the sport how it should be, a down to earth lifestyle.

And you are right hands down, I never bought a K chip early 90’s. That comment is also very true. Most people prefer to ride a 9 6″ Christenson for 1,495.00 + tax, or a 9 6″ kookbox for 1,569.00 + tax.
I usually can find those boards used for 950.00
Which leads me to my next comment, I usually go dumpster diving on the weekends and I actually have found some nice short boards : )

you just stick with obama drama. in all my years have NEVER seen a rock star president like obama! i didn’t even know that existed? he should just keep going on the view and letterman, and have more parties, him and reverend white should just get up there AND PREACH IT!!!!!!!! talk about a rock star!

(and some of you the other.) don’t believe me open up one of your photo albums or photo files on your computer. just grab or click on a photo send it to surfer, they’ll publish it, and wha la, poser. fact is, take a good look, your a poser a thousand plus fold. you pessimist shit talkers are lucky i gotta go to work right now, or i’d sit here all day sipin brewskies and throw back the shit in your face that you talk about dane. i respect dane and what he does, you don’t that’s cool, nothing wrong with that, maybe just ONCE try and be cool about it and disagree with a cool attitude, or be respectfully in your comments, then you won’t start your little negative shit talking war. thanks to you haters i’m gonna take the kids this weekend get em some quiksilver and roxy clothes, and a channel island T for me. hey dane we love and respect you, try and always REMEMBER, AND FOCUS ON THE GOOD PEOPLE, not all the bad, NEGATIVE evil wannabe people. your ALWAYS gonna have those kinds of people HERE on this planet, the bottom feeders.

October 14, 2011ANGRY (IDOL WORSHIP.) that’s what you call it. i call it justified anger.
what do you expect when you leave a disrespectful comments about someone that another person cares about and those comments are hitting below the belt? when you offend people, are those people supposed to just be silent? yea that person in the above paragraph could of not been as tacky or used bad language to get their point across. always ask yourself whats the motive here WHY is he or she saying this?? i call that justified anger. …just disagreeing with you in a cool manner.

October 14, 2011One day at the Kraken in sunny Cardiff by the Sea:
A pirate walks up to the bar with a wheel wrapped around his waist.
Bartender says: “Hey Pirate, what’s with the wheel wrapped around your waist?
Pirate says: “Ahhrrrrr, it’s driving me nuts!” (boom, crash, snare!!!).

October 14, 2011Weird but I see more of a heavier negative vibe coming from the people trying to defend or man up for dane. Seems pretty valid being upset about commercialization of something. I’m sure Danes in a pretty heavy position for a young guy. I hope he does well with what ever he does. Peace

October 14, 2011compete for what? for you? what does he have to prove to you? competitive surfing? like judging rembrandt vs van gogh? kinda subjective… but hopefully they will get the judging down a little better with the air tricky stuff. please call mr. tudor down in la jolla and demand that he competes to on a 6 1″ thruster squash. don’t just single out dane. and don’t forget D malloy he needs to get back out there for you too. then they won’t be flakes they’ll be MEN.

October 19, 2011I don’t get it. Dane surfs a bunch of skateboard tricks and everyones idol worshiping the guy. How about the skaters that do it on a hard surface. Tricks are for babies.
Anonymous
October 19, 2011most all stages that are performed on are stationary. ie- a basketball court a skate ramp, a skate park, the list goes on. the ocean is not stationary, and when something is NOT moving and changing you can practice 10hrs a day for 10 yrs. like a basket ball court. my opinion it’s harder to do impressive stuff (what ever that may be to someone,) on waves, there moving… the conditions are never the same. just my opinion. and you know what they say about opinions? tricks are for kids, until you see it done on a 6′ back 8 feet from your face in the water.

Anonymous
October 20, 2011my interpretation of what that guy is trying to say but misspelled physics, is for every action there’s a reaction. thus you post a negative disrespectful comment, your gonna get the same back. Same goes for posting a positive comment. just my interpretation? but there is some truth to that. does remind me of one our family members though, who is very negative. if you look on here where there’s zero comments, there’s also zero negative comments…
Anonymous
October 20, 2011Dude you let me explain a few things to you .
There is no definitive law when it come to emotion. What you are talking about is Newtons Laws of motion. The mutual forces of action and reaction between two bodies are equal, opposite and collinear. You have to understand that they need each other and cease to exist with out each other. Emotions are a much more mercurial subtle source. Unpredictable yet we can learn much about or reactions to certain circumstances.
As far viewing things negative I personally don’t see or have reacted to any of the posts as even remotely negative. If the tone of the commenter is reminding you of one of your family members and you then are reacting to really to your family member. Because after all what you’re looking at is some letters that create words that create sentences that you interpret and process into what you like. Much love dude.
Anonymous
October 21, 2011a negative comment about some one you respect whether that be a family member or dane reynolds can be predicted, and that negative premeditated comment can be controlled and can be prevented if a person chooses to. that’s NOT an emotion. that being said, ( do a test, or read the crap on youtube.) when someone say’s a hurtful negative thing hitting below the belt with there words, (my % could be wrong here) but 50 % of the people being offended will fire back, and spit back in there face (sometimes just as bad and sometimes in a respectful manner,) and the other 50% won’t say a word and allow that person to get away with said hurtful comment/act. that’s the only point i wanted to make. so the question is just for respect sake here, if your close family member has a cool youtube video with their dogs or something and some idiot starts spewing negative comments are you and you and your family gonna type something back? some people will go off on em, and some won’t. i’m not saying what is the right thing to do, i’m saying 50% of the people will protect their family member because they care about them. some people care about dane and will fireback, could even be a family member of dane’s? i do like the crazy analogy or where there’s an action there’s a reaction. pay a REALLY nice compliment to your mom or girlfriend. then the next day say something foul and offensive. tell me the REACTION to each comment said? peace bruddah & i don’t think anybody accused YOU of anything negative…
Anonymous
October 21, 2011I think you are getting a lot of misinformation from the Internet.
Are you saying emotion plays no part in your REACTION-(put bold because you did)? Hmmm.
If I say “YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT THE FUCK YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT MORON!” you don’t respond viscerally? Then I would ask why or why not did you respond viscerally? What was my intent as the writer to you? What are you protecting? And Why?
I tell my boyfriend to fuck off all the time. His response depends on my relationship with him. The time of month. My intent. It also is a face to face exchange. Not just some typed words on a blog that I read into and create a narcissistic formula.
I would assume that ALMOST all people would be hurt and offended if
some one call them a dumb piece of crap, but then there is a very small percentage of that would find it hysterically funny.
Go RAIDERS
Anonymous
October 21, 2011emotion does play apart on the recipient. but the recipient did not premeditate the negative hateful fowl comment. the person typing a negative below the belt comment is not acting on full emotion. there acting on is some cases, just to find something negative about somebody that’s successful. ie surfy post a pic a shaped board the negative community will knock it, but they wont’ or will NEVER post, or put a pic of their shape, BECAUSE THEY CAN’T EVEN SHAPE A BOARD! my favorite is when people post themselves playing an instrument on youtube. then people post hateful premeditated comments, but we never see the commentators posting their talent, BECAUSE THEY CAN’T PLAY? yes your right the recipient will have/add emotion in there. i just meant if you leave a negative comment, your most likely to get a negative comment back, that goes with a positive too. now if you weren’t on the rag all the time, and such a narcissist, and weren’t a raider fan you probably would be pleasant to be around, and fun to talk too? 🙂 you tell your BF to F off “ALL THE TIME?” be careful, coarse gesturing can come back and bite you int the nose (not the ass,) where everyone can see. peace. Go DANE
Anonymous
October 21, 2011Why would you want to premeditate a negative hateful fowl comment? What are you protecting? Your analysis doesn’t hold any water because it’s not objective at all. All you do is react because you are in a constant fight or flight mode and very easy to provoke into response. Just the way the advertisers like it.
