Clear your calendar! Venice-adjacent's favorite incel lifestyle blog is hosting a conference!
(A note from The Inertia Founder-in-Chief Zach Weisberg)
Dear readers, friends, and family,
We could not be more excited to announce The Inertia’s Inaugural EVOLVE Summit on August 18th at Playa Studios in Los Angeles!
EVOLVE is a first-of-its-kind gathering that features powerful short films, panels that pair thought-leaders from different spheres of outdoor culture to tackle our most pressing topics, and world-class live music to mobilize innovators in our space as a force for good like never before. We would be absolutely honored for you to join us, and we wanted to make sure you, our readers, writers, videographers, photographers, artists, and environmentalists who comprise our beautifully diverse community of nearly 3,000 surf and outdoors lovers receive the news before anyone else. Seating is limited.
As for the event itself, we developed EVOLVE with two objectives in mind.
First, we want to unite the brightest minds in surf and outdoors to host constructive conversations aimed at improving our collective future.
Second, we want to honor inspiring individuals who choose to make positive contributions to the culture at large.
And, honestly, the event is shaping up to be more than we could have imagined.
With confirmations from so many talented people in surf and outdoors who are using their influence to make a positive imprint on our society, we could not be more thrilled.
We’ve also got amazing live music lined up with performances by Company of Thieves and Jack Symes.
A portion of proceeds from will benefit Surfrider Foundation and Protect Our Winters, two amazing organizations fighting for the health and prosperity of sacred places on our planet.
Again, we couldn’t be more excited to bring so many talented people together for the betterment of surf and outdoor culture. We hope to see you there, and we hope you’ll take advantage of the early bird special.
Have an amazing funky mid-week fourth of July holiday, and we look forward to seeing you August 18th in Los Angeles.
Sincerely,
Zach

Nick Carroll I think you should write a book about your life, no holds barred, all the stories.
“Company of Theives” and “Jack Symes” are gonna get the circle pit rippinggggggg!
All of the buzz words that make Linkedin the dumpster fire it is.
Love toin coss’ suggestion of a dunk tank… fill it with vodka and maybe Chas agrees….
But Inertia exists in Mar Vista right? Not even Venice, but the demographic of Santa Monica bay surfers is youths that moved to SM to work in advertising, tech, studio work…. as such, it’s basically a giant land of beginners who aren’t surfers, just dabblers. It could have been anything, but became surfing. Anyone worth his salt left when they could… there is not a good wave within 20 miles of Inertia HQ. Maybe 40. Oh, that evil PV, but they don’t subscribe to transformational cultures and space as a force for good.
Give them credit, they found a niche and are organizing a pow wow to change the world if that fucking Lincoln traffic allows the attendees to make the conference on time.
Yes newbees, and that seems to be the problem as the Inertia fills their heads with some good things but also some wrong things such as the inertia propagana
LA is the kook epicenter of California.
Hey, sorry ‘the Inertia’ staff take the “money making” part very seriously.
Exactly why Inertia readers shouldn’t take the Inertia staff very seriously when they spew bullshit platitudes.
It seems the Inertia staff (Zack, Alex, Dylan) don’t like it when you disagree with them, if you disagree with them, they might ‘ban’ you from their website for life. It seems these young guys are trying to pass themselves off together as some kind of voice of surf culture- ‘Hilarious’. There are probably many germmies who have more experience than them and that are more well informed than the Inertia staff. Too bad, thought we might be close to a meeting of the minds.
The Good, The Bad and The Ugly

Fuck me, how much coke did Zach do before he wrote this?
If Zach is surfing and he wrote this on coke, would this be considered a love story?
Weisberg: Lettuce Give Peas a Chance.
Zach Iceberg?
The blandest of the lettuces. I’m more of a rocket man, personally.
Well, we know Jen See is into kale. This BeachGrit lettuce census is really taking off
oh we should totally go! it would be hilarious.
Yes Jen God put you on earth to go to this conference and report back to The People! Your One True Purpose has revealed itself. Probably they wouldn’t even have a good reason to not let you in. Make Derek send you. Are there first class flights from Santa Barbara to Santa Monica?
Helicopter! Land on the roof, shimmy on in through the fire door. I like to make an entrance.
How did you missed “our beautifully diverse community of nearly 3,000 surf and outdoors lovers”? It’s basically my favorite research topic on youporn. And is it really 3000?
Nearly 3000! It’s pretty killer eh. How’s this, when Alby and Co sold Tracks magazine to Philip Mason in 1976, Tracks had an audited circulation of 46,000 copies. Per month. In Australia. And it wasn’t a beautifully diverse community I can tell ya.
No other way to see pics of good surfing, to hear about the best surfing destinations, an easier way to count those really interested. The “dilutive” effect of internet is strong. It wasn’t fashionable to speak or hear about surfing in 1976. And “a beautifully diverse community” was another way to describe a sect.
Man! I dunno where you were in 1976, but in Australia, it was very fashionable indeed to speak about surfing. Cooler than fucking cool in fact. The people who hung around Tracks at the time! Normal people were scared of surfers and of surfing in general. It was soooo good.
I was in France, SW of France. You’re right for the fact that people were scared of surfing in general. I remember aussies with VW combis parked on the parkings above the beach, and people would litterally tell their kids not to approach them! Cool for sure, but fashionable I wouldn’t say so! How different it is today…
Fashionable for sure, but I don’t know what cool means anymore…
Tony Robbins be there too dear friends and a Chas Smith dunk tank to help cleanse you from any jaded thoughts.
