HOW DO YOU DEFINE THE SURF CREW?

Absolute craftsmen: ready to ride any surf craft in any surfable conditions.

THE WAVES WERE PRETTY SMALL... HOW'D YOU LIFT THE MOOD IN THIS MICRO SURF SESSION?

Rocking up to the beach was a bit of a downer, buttttt we slipped into our boardies, and instantly the surf started looking fun (also not sure if the Lordy we had just choofed on helped).

WHO WAS CROWNED KING OF THE POINT THAT DAY?

Jhamil definitely slid into victory on the point. The right craft resulted in some small cones for him! Was a pleasure to watch.

IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME COMING, AND WE CAN NOW CONFIRM THE RUMOURS ARE TRUE: SURFERS GET MORE SPEED IN THE AFENDS BOARDIES. DID YOU FEEL IT DURING THE SESSION?

Did you watch that huge punt of Jhamil’s barely anyone could have got that high wearing non-hemp boardies.

HAVE YOU PUT THEM TO THE ULTIMATE BEACH TO BAR TEST?

We actually did a combo I’ve never done before… Wake up: Put Boardies on, Coffee: Boardies on, Surf: Boardies on, Pub Lunch: Boardies on, Surf again: you got it, boardies on… and why not go to the pub just to finish the day off right and have a night in these Hemp boardies! You bet, they're a fucking comfortable all round boardshort!
