And the winner is… Zach from Westminster, MD: “Today in the Costa Rican Gazette: A week
after Brendan Buckley refused to go on the record in response to surf style
critics who claim(ed) that matching the color of your cut-off T-shirt to the
color of your traction pad is soooooooooo way more last week than slob grabs,
he let his surfing (and attire) spout off — baffled reporters stumbled
into the streets mumbling, ‘It kept talking about the future in the past tense.’”
Honorable
mention goes to Mike Jakuc from Sea Girt, NJ: “Buckley does slob grabs as
good as Millard Fillmore teaches me how to dougie. And my boy Millard can do
one mean dougie.”
And Pat from
Wellesley, MA: “Wow, and I thought the Goose's blog was over the top...
Brendan Buckley, showing that his above-the-lip surfing is on par with the best
in the biz.”
Zach will
receive a pair of sleek and simple jet blue Cinch sunglasses from Dragon (www.dragonalliance.com), a crisp and wearable option for the active person who doesn’t want to
compromise on style. In addition to the shades and mesh hat from Dragon, Zach
will receive two CDs, a copy of AWOLNATION’s new EP Back From Earth on Red Bull Records (www.awolnationmusic.com), and a copy of The Blank
Tapes’ album Home Away From Home on
White Noise Records (www.playwhitenoise.com). And of course, Zach
will also get hooked up with a Bubble Gum Wax prize pack, including four bars
of Original Wax for every season (Cold, Cool, Warm, and Tropical), a bar of Rob
Machado’s Organik Blend wax, and an assortment of wax combs, stickers,
keychains, and air fresheners (www.bubblegumsurfwax.com).
