The BIG HUGE issue of Surfer magazine has a page dedicated to a contest they are hosting called Battle of the Blogs. It pits 32 blogs against in each other in a popularity contest for the best surf blog.
Surfy Surfy has been entered and we are up against World Pro Surfers in the first round.
World Pro Surfers is a pretty good blog about pro surfing. They use a more updated style blog than we use on good ‘ol Surfy Surfy (which is still on the old school ratty Blogger platform, hee hee).
Surf blogging is pretty much a group hug but the contest sounds fun and we thank Surfer Magazine for including us.

Legendary San Diego television personality Larry Himmel, pictured above with Surfy Surfy Team Member Jon Pankopf, stopped by our new shop this morning to check on our progress and filmed a segment. Hopefully I didn’t come off too dorky. Watch the clip here. *Warning: contains spoilers.
Our adopted hobbit shaper Mani Caro is featured in Drift Surfing dot com, which has the best graphic design out of all the groovy surf websites and blogs.
