THE LIMITED EDITION PEARL JAM/VOLCOM ISSUE T-SHIRT
To coincide with Pearl Jam’s previously announced reissue of their debut album, Ten, on March 24, 2009, Volcom will release a limited edition Pearl Jam/Volcom tee shirt and 7” record featuring smokin’ live versions of “Even Flow” and “Porch” on Volcom Entertainment. Both tracks are extended live versions of the original studio recordings, stretching into the seven-minute range. “Even Flow” was recorded in August 2005 at Adam’s Fieldhouse in Missoula, MT and “Porch” was recorded in July 2006 at the Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall in Portland, OR. Both the tee shirt and 7” record will be available at select Volcom retailers as well as in the online VolcomENT Store. With the relationship between Pearl Jam and Volcom dating back to the early-90’s, Volcom Chairman/CEO Richard Woolcott calls this collaboration “a special project for us that brings the relationship with Pearl jam full circle”. He also adds, “I can’t help but smile when thinking back on all the good times we shared together. Whether it was the “Day in the Dirt” weekends in Seattle or rocking to live shows in Hawaii, Pearl Jam has always been close to our hearts”. Ten, the debut album that sold 12 million copies and introduced the world to Pearl Jam in 1991, will be reissued in four (4) new and expanded editions. Pre-orders of the Super Deluxe Edition began in December, 2008, through the band’s Ten Club at www.pearljam.com, with all four editions available at retail on March 24, 2009. The reissue of Ten serves as the launch of a planned two-year catalogue re-release campaign leading up to the band’s 20th anniversary in 2011.

Yes is a project that comes from the heart, because it is what snowboarding is missing today. It is not the goal of Yes to become N° 1, but simply to propose another alternative to a market which has often lost its fun side.
Yes breaks the codes, imposes its particularity and marks a dramatic change in the things that have been established for the past 15 years.
The new innovation proposed include: new shape, new network of sales, "3 collections per year".
Yes will not be lead by commercial obligations nor by sales reps that impose their sale criteria. Yes is free, Yes is cool, Yes now Board!
Each product will be proposed in limited editions of 100 items, and each client will be lucky enough to own a rare object, that way becoming part of the Yes adventure.
Yes, an independent snowboard company Endorsed by NdKreative, Manufactured by Nidecker Swiss Engineering, YES, NOW BOARD!
Volcamera, a handheld Flip camera given to Volcom team rider Gigi Ruf for a period of two days. The following is the unedited (by us, anyways) video footage that was returned to Volcom. Episode 1.
So far we've seen great attempts and horrendous ones. With the tally of broken fins and skin gashes climbing, time presses on to see the first person successfully complete a proper kickflip on a surfboard.
Along with $10,000, the winner will also receive a 2-page spread feature in Transworld Surf and their name on the cover!
Visit the Kickflipoff Youtube page and watch all of the latest attempts including near makes and disastrous failures.
OFFICIAL RULES AND REGULATIONS FOR VOLCOM STONE'S $10,000 KICKFLIP-OFF CONTEST! READ CAREFULLY!
To date, no one has ever documented a cleanly landed kickflip on a surfboard. Volcom is giving away $10,000 to the first person that can land a “proper” kickflip while surfing! By proper we mean an “above the lip” kickflip where first you launch an air, use your front foot to flip the board, and then land on it and ride out cleanly. No backwash, no fingerflips, no grabs, no laybacks. Just a proper kickflip. We’re going to be strict on these following guidelines. The rules are all listed here, so get out there and put this trick in the history books. Good luck!
Rules: 1. Your entry must be on video from the start of the trick through the ride out. No photos allowed. 2. This contest is open to everyone. The contest begins today November 21st, 2007, and will run until there's a winner. 3. The kickflip must be a real air “above the lip” – No backwash, No chop hops, or anything in the flats or below the lip of the wave. 4. All waves must be self caught – You must paddle into the wave. This means NO tow-ats, step-offs, jetskis, boats, dinghys, winches, canoes, oars, helicopters, dolphins or assistance of any kind. 5. No grabs of any kind. Not before, not after, not during. 6. You must completely “ride out” of the kickflip. That means if you land on the back of the wave and fail to continue surfing the wave – it’s not a make! 7. No heelflips. Or else we’d have called it the Heelflip-Off. 8. No shoes. Who surfs in shoes anyway? Regular “made for surfing” booties are acceptable. 9. You must be riding a surfboard with at least one fin. No boogie boards, wakeboards, wakeskates, skimboards, kiteboards, trays etc.

Larry Bertlemann, the Titan of Torque, the Sultan of Swivel, the "Rubberman". Larry Bertlemann was the quintessential pioneer of New School surfing. "Anything is Possible" was the mantra he adopted into his mind bending, space aged approach to wave riding. Being an avid skateboarder, Bertlemann brought skateboarding to the water. Visualizing street based maneuvers and adapting them into wave riding was his forte. His skate influenced wave improvisation was a functional mix of low gravity high-g cutbacks, 360's and switch stance surfing. Larry Bertlemann changed the way we ride waves. His Santa Cruz 6'0" twin fin Legend Series pro-model is the epitome of blending the old with the new. A skate influenced contemporary version of the board he rode in the late 70's to early 80's.

G-Deck
With a skateboard like kick tail and a cambered platform deck the G-deck’s foot positions create more power, control, better angles and comfort in tight turning situations. The G-deck has the same amount of board in different more functional places. This design isn’t meant to float any better, but to have a thinner rail with equal volume. The benefits of a thinner rail are that of sensitivity, bite, speed and release. With the G-deck’s platform out near the rail, it still has the needed stability to pull black out inducing G-Force. Our team calls this design the skateboard on water. We call it the G-deck Skywalker. The G-deck is available in three sizes and is made using Santa Cruz’s exclusive Powerlyte EXT technology.
5’5 G-deck Skywalker Shaper: Chris Gallagher Dimensions Length 5'5 Nose 15.25” Middle 20.15” Tail 15.6” Thickness 2.63” €739,- (inc board bag & fins)
5’10 G-deck Skywalker Shaper: Chris Gallagher Dimensions Length 5'10 Nose 15.2” Middle 20.8” Tail 16” Thickness 2.75” €749,- (inc board bag & fins)
