Thanks to everyone for praying for waves; it seems to have worked!  Northern Germany saw some pretty decent swell last weekend so theHolmstroem Crew went off to Sylt to shoot their IN YOUR FACE part.  And even though the promised swell didn’t hit France, we still had some good times with the three young guns from the Carcans Ocean Surf Club Crew who first participated in the Carcans Original Surf Contest No5 and then took us through a beautiful pine forest to some secret spots where they showed us what French surfing is all about.

We’ve gotten a lot done over the past few weeks which means a sick trailer is on the way shortly.  But before you get to watch all the surf action, the skate trailer will be out October 1st with tons of awesome tricks including the BLOBY’s Crew who we met up with in Paris.  It was super fun cruising around the French capital with the crew and their friends, capturing some great footage along the way.  The competition is really heating up as there’s also the SUICHI Crew, Goodstuff Crew andZUCKA Crew who are all vying to win the trip to California.  Filming with Italy’s ZUCKA boys last week was especially exciting as they had their yearly ZUCKA vs. Tutti Contest going on which offered some great filming opportunities and an awesome excuse to consumer lots of pizza and vino.

Well, now it’s time for Felix Urbauer to hit the editing studio to make the best out of the crews’ minutes of fame so that you can start voting for your favorite crew in the beginning of November.  So don’t forget: the skate trailer will be out October 1st and the surf trailer will follow soon after, with premiere parties in the works as well — YEAH!!!  It’s gonna be a hot autumn!
