The Enthusiast Network, owner of Surfer, maybe on the block for low low price!
This rumor is breaking fast and if you want to be a playa you’d best get liquid because a once in a lifetime opportunity might be here but it won’t be here forever.
The Enthusiast Network, owner of Surfer, Grind TV, Transworld.com, Hot Rod, Auto Trend, and others is allegedly on the block for the low low price of 40 million dollars!
And just think the fun you could have as captain of Surfer’s ship!
You could…… put yourself on the cover!
Grind TV? You could…… wait. Grind TV is still a thing? Well I suppose you could make it an even BIGGER thing by….. putting yourself on it? I’m sorry. I’m at a total loss as to what Grind TV actually is.
And then….. put your best friend on the next cover!

But Surfing! Shit. Never mind.
Transworldsurf.com? Son of a bitch. Is this some kind of joke here?
Wait… this just in!
BeachGrit is allegedly on the block for the even lower price of 35 million dollars. Act fast! It is basically as robust as all of TEN’s surf titles and just think of the fun you could have as captain of THIS ship. You could…. have me n Derek over for dinner! We’ll bring the finest bottle of wine your local bottle shop sells!
If you wrote the word Couch in front of the word Surfer, you could create a lifestyle magazine featuring those who choose not to pay a cent on accommodation whilst travelling the world. Who’s in?
Yeah i’m down except I never really actually left my own couch.
Zat count?
Couch Surfing CEO!
PAY ME beeeyatch
Pay you? I’ll give you some worthless shares, a glowing write up in the Financial Review and a glossy prospectus featuring photos of rich people doing shit that rich people do. Surely that’s enough!
Stoked. I’m in.
hard to believe surfer is worth 40 million. Los Angeles magazine just sold for 6.3 million, after being sold for 30 mill in 2000. Depreciated nearly 24 million in 16 years.
I’ve got $35. Will that do?
Prospective Buyer: This shit?
BG Captain: No, THIS ship!
Prospective Buyer: Oh. Does the reef its sitting high and dry on come with it?
BG Captain: Do you want the reef?
Prospective Buyer: Well, it makes it more appealing.
BG Captain: Then yes. THIS ship. THAT reef. So, we have a deal?
Prospective Buyer: Do I have to adopt Derek and Chas?
BG Captain: No. You will take over guardianship of Mikey though.
Prospective Buyer: SHIT
Chance or coincidence that The Enthusiast Network (TEN) and The Ten (television) Network in Australia are going for a song?
40 mill? You could by the tv station for 40k…
Buying some ageing magazine assets actually looks like a smart investment compared to the corpse that’s channel 10.
Never try to catch a falling knife is what a very wealthy business man once said to me, but this is more like trying to catch a falling grenade with the pin pulled.
Beachgrit for 35 million rupees though? Could be worth a look, if just to get Chas and Dez over to smash tins. Not Mikey though, he seems like the sort of prick that drinks cider.
There’s a hot rod magazine… Fuck yeah that sounds like a deal…
well at least you’re actually enthusiastic.
Looking forward to a Chas / Derek Beachgrit guide to wine.
You could technically bring Surfing Mag back to life…
Jesus himself couldn’t raise that cadaver!
If I buy Beachgrit do I have to also fly you and Derek between Oz and US regularly?
Do I get to ride in Porsche or does it become mine on purchase?
Lastly do I get Necro gear?
I”ll weigh it up
