SMASH presents The Surfers Studio: An Evening with Mark Kelly, Global Surf Industries Managing Director. Friday May 20th at 8pm at the Tribeca Grand Hotel’s Grand Screening Room. The Surfers Studio is a series of in-depth conversation documenting the lives, careers and contributors of surfers who have made an impact on surf culture and the surf community.

Last week I had the privilege of being invited to check out Fuel TV’s, The Daily Habit’s visit to New York. Unfortunately I didn’t get see any of the 3 day filming or even get to be a guest on the show but I was privy to check out the elaborate set. Classic NYC Photos, Skateboards, Surfboards, awesome crowd of old and new friends landscaped the NY Bathhouse Studios.

Great job! Alex Corporan, Ivory Serra and my new friend Beth Lyden.


Dope SHUT Deck!

I caught this for the first time last night on the Sundance Channel. The best part was that my awesome surfer friend Jianca Lazarus is featured in the documentary. This is a must see for all New Yorkers, Thrill Seekers and Surfers!
“Making her directorial debut, filmmaker Carolina Cruz Santiago documents a community of surfers living in an unlikely island paradise: New York City. A fellow surfer and former native of Hawaii and California, Santiago wanted her film to show how a sport transcends place and allows its participants to connect to nature and each other.”- Sundance Channel. airing Sun. Feb. 7 at 7:10AM, Fri. Feb. 12 at 6:35PM and Mon. Feb. 15 at 9:05AM
