Pros, pros, pros!

Pro bodyboarders are all waking up and seem to be aware that a good website definitely helps a good career. Most pros are now starting their own site (not your average Blogger blog with a lame design) which is really cool.

Here’s what we spotted recently:

Dave Winchester now has his own website, check it out here and follow Dave’s adventures/stories etc.: Davewinchester.com (Cool site/blog with a nice/clean look).

Matt Lackey enhanced/updated his video project website here: Thelackeyproject.com

Mitch Rawlins is always busy with his own website too and recently released his last Hawaiian video clip from this winter: Mitchrawlins.com

Mitch Rawlins – Hawaii Vol. II Edit now online

Absolutely brilliant. Amazing footage, camera angles, quality and editing. This is the second video that Mitch and his partners in crime James Wise and Tom Hannam post from this season on the rock: http://mitchrawlins.com/movies/hawaii-2010-vol-ii/.

Watch it over and over again. How is that side angle where you can see Mitch and then Ben Player get shacked like crazy before launching huge reverses ? Whaaaaaaat. Sick shit! This is bodyboarding. Thanks Mitch, James & Tom for those edits.

Nick Rubesaame profile and blog

Link of the week

www.bodyboardersjournal.com that is.

Our friend Michael Emo has been working on this baby for quite a while now and he just officially launched it yesterday. Check it out and help Mike gather some more info if you can.

Here’s what BBers’ Journal is all about:

We aim to bring together and preserve the stories, projects, people and events of the last 37+ years that have ultimately defined and shaped our sport.

We’ve gathered content and information on bodyboarding from every corner of the globe. Countless videos, magazines, stories, profiles, articles, interviews and images from the past and present have crossed our desktops, blurring our eyes and overloading our brains well past midnight. And along with the help of a few generous bodyboarding souls, young and old, we have arrived.

More than 400 video titles and 200 issues of various bodyboarding magazines have been indexed to date. We’re also working on individual and company profiles, interviews, stories and much more! In fact, we’re working to preserve the entire history of bodyboarding and this is just the beginning. So sit back, saturate your mind and enjoy.
