I took him and his brother surfing… dudes are hilarious (and actually the best beginners I’ve ever seen)… all Robert was doing was walking around in his wetsuit, visor and shades singing that song by their buddies’ band The Drums.

One of the scenes is Kid Sis on top of Curt from Flosstradamus‘ LeBaron, with A-Trak sitting shotgun. Look closely, Curt’s wearing a pair of Flat Black Nudie Mags.

Big ups to Kid Sister and the rest of the Fool’s Gold fam!

The interview is about sexual encounters, so if you’re easily offended don’t read it. Consider yourself warned! (scans courtesey of Insight USA)

Speaking of Jared, he came by Venice the other day with other Newport hellion Ratty Matty:

More to come on that end, but welcome to the family Ratty! Here’s a photo of Jared, Matty and the rest of the Pigeon Crew holding it down on 4th of July (photo cred. Tyler Cuddy):

See you there September 4th.

Kid Sister is the real sister of Young Josh, 1/2 of Flosstradamus. Coincidentally, the other half of Floss is our homie Curt, who sometimes DJs for Kid Sis during live shows. Here’s a shot of Curt in some Beach Partys on Jimmy Kimmel Live:

If you’re on it then you know we’ve been working on a collabo with Flosstradamus for a while now, more details on that REAL soon, I promise. Have a good weekend, a wild ass Malibu house party is in store for the CRAP crew!!!

That’s Blackbush on the very left in 2003, and this is him in 2010:

Blackbush used to be the most surf stoked grom around. White-blonde hair, mini-grom surf style, sponsors, all-day surf sessions, contests etc. One day he started to get into this thing new thing called drifting…

As far as we all knew, drifting consisted of peeling out around neighborhood corners in your mom’s car. We had no idea it was a legitimate sport.

After years of practice and hard work, crashing his car (I was in his old beater BMW the first time he every crashed trying to drift – on a rainy day after high school with colachis… but that’s different story in itself), getting dark hair and growing up, Matt’s dream of being a pro competitor morphed from surfing into drifting.

On weekends, he used to surf Windansea ALL DAY LONG, literally. His dad would come eat lunch on the beach with him, and that would be the only ten minutes he’d spend out of the water all day. His tenacity and hard work ethic is the exact same for drifting now that it once was for surfing.

Matt just finished up his first season as a professional driver on the Formula D circuit. He’s already turning heads with his wild style and ghetto-rig whip (so sick). Once he locks up enough sponsor money to get his car on the same level as the other drivers, he’s gonna tear it up!

The thing I’ve always respected about Powers is that he’s an independent thinker – he doesn’t give a damn about what other people think. He’d be reading racing magazines and listening to Nelly while the rest of the crew read surf mags and listened to punk. When we’d poke fun and talk shit, which we did all the time (standard), he’d shrug it off with his trademark “suck it!”

That’s why we’re proud to have Matt as a part of the CRAP Eyewear family as a brand ambassador. A roots CRAP homie since day 1.
