What Youth || Vinho Verde

Really good surfing in the oldest world of Portugal with Mitch Coleborn, Soli Bailey, Mitch Crews and Dusty Payne.
  Vinho Verde is actually white wine. But the bottle in green and the taste is terrific. And in Portugal, you can drink with any and every meal you choose. It accents buttery white fish perfectly. Post surf in Portugal, few things sound better. And as you’ll see here in this new short starring Mitch, Soli, Crewsy and Dusty, Portugal is plentiful in waves. Rocks and coves litter the coast with setups. And before a recent contest, these four wandered around to rip in a place that I can’t rave about enough — mostly because I don’t want any of you to know how good it is. But after watching this, the cat might be out of the bag.—Travis

What Youth || Fairly Normal || Austyn Gillette

He was almost a hockey player. “I played a lot of ice hockey growing up actually. Then my brother and I got skateboards for Christmas one year and that was that.” Mere inches from a totally different existence. “One of my best friends growing up was just drafted by the Detroit Red Wings actually, so he’s pretty dialed.”
But instead of another Red Wing we got the kind of professional skateboarder who’s often hailed as the hands-down favorite of his peers: A lethal combination of style, technical prowess and the most precise bit of fuck-it, all baked in to produce what has become the new elite in modern skateboarding.

Imposing rice terraces contrast with stark desert scenery, massive coal factories rub shoulders with newly built cities.

"With this edit I wanna get viewers psyched to go surfing, this in mind, I kinda just wanted to get barrelled and go large because that’s what I like to watch and not in perfect waves because that’s just unrealistic for a lot of people… and me." - Letty Mortensen

Tripped Out || Latvia - Drifting in a Soviet Missile Base || Donut Media

To see the trio tearing up the former missile base, press play below.

Stab In The Dark || Dane Reynolds And The World's Best Surfboard

Is it possible to call a surfboard, or a shaper, the best in the world? There’s no way to answer either of these questions definitively… But, we can get damn close. How? By commissioning 13 of the world’s best shapers to deliver their top line, high performance boards (sans any recognisable logos), and having one of the world’s best high performance surfers test-drive them. The catch? Neither shapers nor surfer knew the others’ identity. No logos, no brand association, no preconceived notions: Just one of the world’s best surfers and a pile of nameless magic. Is it a flawed concept? Absolutely. But, it is the least subjective platform we’ve got.
