Props to the VERT crew. Speaking about Vert mag: congrats Filipe Martins Gomes, you won the Spongercity Tshirt. Tomorrow we’re sending it with a bunch of Spongercity stickers mate!

Lots of news this week. First of all congrats to french shredder Amaury Laverhne and Kira for winning the Sopelana contest in Spain, respectively Men and Women divisions. Amaury’s been surfing really well this year in both small and massive waves and will certainly surprise a lot of people in the up coming events. Sintra, Portugal is the next stop on the world tour. Watchout for this event. We hope waves will be good. Manny Vargas and the FFAT crew will make sure you’re having a good time in Portugal at the Freak Fest. Check the FFAT site to learn more.
We talked about the NEW BZ boards and website a while a ago and we just received the BZ euro Catalog (right click to dowload the Catalog – jpg Poster) from our good friends at BZ europe. I cant really tell the difference between the euro range and the international range. All i know is that the boards are made by Mez and that’s all you need to know. Great shapes, great materials. BZ is back in the game for 07/08. Peep the boards here if you’re in europe. Peep the website if you’re somewhere else on this small planet.
And talking about BZ boards, that story is pretty good: Hubb took a plane to Spain for the Sopelana contest, they lost his boards and fins (yewww! another great airline company!), Hubb waits, nothing comes, so he decides to go to the nearest shop and buy his own board model and viper fins! Ha, how cool is that! Check Hubb stoked with his new board.
Last but not least: if you are a Pussybooger check this great DVD teaser here. Fucken’ sick.
Update: CARTEL BOARD CO. last minute NEWS: If you’re chilling in SW France on the 25th of August come to the Cartel Party. Check the flyer here.

The IBA tour website has been re-designed and looks cool. Check it out: www.ibatour.com/. The Invert Crew pimped a cool Joomla template and the site looks cleaner and better than ever.
As you can see we eventually changed our “THIS MONTH” feature on this Home page, and this month reads: Interview with Todd Barnes. Todd is the man behind “V.I.D.E.O” and also the new No Friends 10 dvd: “DECADE”. We wanted to know more about Todd and his video editing skills. We thought is was the right time to do this interview with the soon to be released and long awaited No Friends 10 video. Read the interview here.
