Can’t wait ! Should be a sick comp once again on the 2011 IBA tour !
More vids to watch ! The lack of DVDs out has been largely compensated by the amount of good podcasts / webisodes / clips online recently. We must say we’d rather see more real good full length DVD’s or videos online rather than just short clips but hey, it’s recession times ! What did you expect ? At least we still have something to watch !
Siiiiiick footage from Hawaii in the latest In-Between podcast ! Watch this now: http://vimeo.com/29362257 !
Presenting part 3 of ‘IN-BETWEEN’… A 6 part series bought to you by inverted.net.au and kimfeast.com
Featuring locals Miles Kau’haa’haa and Damien Boone. Kim says: “Hawaii is a very special place to me. Over the years I have met amazing people, been shown incredible hospitality and adventured to beautiful places on this lush volcanic island chain. This year was no different. Cruising on one of the outer Islands with Miles and Damien scoring one of my favorite waves and discovering breathtaking areas that I would not have known existed”.

We enhanced our navigation bar (yes, the grey thing above this text and under our red flashy spongercity header where you can choose to check other stuff than what’s on this page) and although you probably don’t remember at all how the older navigation bar looked like, we think we made it simpler. We took some old and now useless categories and threw them away, we added our Facebook, Twitter and Flickr in there and regrouped some other categories together (all reviews together with DVDs and CD’s).
Anyways, the navigation bar is just simpler and better – we hope so at least. Our videos (The Spongercity Podcast) can be found in there as well under the “Podcast” tab which links toward iTunes for Podcast Subscriptions and all our vids are available on iTunes and/or Vimeo.
We’ll keep on enhancing the webssite within the next few weeks because it’s been a while since we enhanced the menus, categories and stuff.
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated. ~Confucius

Looks like the IBA format and boogie vibes would fit pro surfer Bobby Martinez better than the ASP format hey ! We like Bobby’s surfing and this video shows we were right, the guy stays true to himself and tells the ASP what he thinks and tells everyone how he feels.
Happened in NYC Quik Pro earlier today:
“First of all, I’d like to say (and the ASP are going to fine me) ‘cuz I don’t want to be a part of this dumb f***ing wannabe tennis tour. All these pro surfers want to be tennis players. They want to do a halfway cutoff. How the f*** is somebody who’s not even competing against our caliber of surfers ahead of 100 of us on the one world ratings. They’ve never been here. They’ve never fucking made the right to surf against us, but now we’re ranked upon them. Come on now. That’s Bullshit. That’s why I ain’t going to these stupid contests no more. This is my last one because FTW, my sponsors is here and I just tell it like it is. This is my last one and I don’t like tennis. I don’t like the tour… Who gives a f***? You know what I mean?”
“I’ve been here before. I love this city. I’ll tell you right now, if my sponsor wasn’t here, I wouldn’t be here for this dumb contest. ASP? They f***ing…surfing’s going down the drain thanks to these people.” —Bobby Martinez
