From the home of the Jews to a beautiful Islamic kingdom…
You can’t say California’s Gudauskas Brothers don’t get around. In their Down Days video series for Vans we’ve seen ‘em swing their exultant spirits through Puerto Rico, Iceland, Spain, Germany, Japan, Israel and, in this episode, Morocco.
“We on a mission to explore the world!”
The sing-song style of the Gudauskas Bro’s don’t always work (click here) but, in this episode (season two, ep nine), as they eat camel (but not the fabled toe!) and surf the long points around Agadir, they come across and gentle and even venerable.
“You can smell it!” screams Pat. “It smells so good!”

9. An ‘healthy’ obsession: What are you going to drink beer and watch football?
10. Friends: Nothing like your surf crew. You might not even like the person in a different context, but there’s no better way to forge a friendship than roasting weenies over a fire sleeping together in the sand dunes.
…who is Travis Bible? He can write. What else you got?
Feels a bit Bruce Brownish, bur fuck if that wasn’t some insane surfing.
It’s a little affected but, how good is it to get fed something with a narrative?
