Is it the first wave of a Google invasion?
If you ever stroll past Google’s Venice, California office you are let known that the computer people inside get their fucking shred on. WaveStorm after WaveStorm after yellowed 8 footer after Xanadu from 1994 after WaveStorm line the outside wall, each screaming, “BARRELS, BITCH!”
Apparently, the computer people are getting their direction from Google founder Larry Page. I don’t know if Larry surfs but his 193 foot super yacht is parked outside Tavarua at this very moment, ready to take in some live World Surf League action.
The yacht cost him 45 million dollars and is named Senses. It has a helipad, gym, multi-level sundeck, ten luxurious suites, a crew of 14 and interiors designed by Philippe Starck.
If you are in Tavarua right now either surfing professionally, taking pictures, making sure the live feed goes off uninterrupted, are Joe Turpel you should, most definitely, paddle up and stow away. It will be time better spent.

Kelly bought the yatch from Larry few months ago.
“BARRELS BITCH,” written in the multi-color Google font. Thoughts, David Carson?
