All the health benefits, none of the fun!
But have you used CBD yourself? Have you personally rubbed CBD lotion on your tired knees, dropped CBD droplets under your tongue, sucked on a CBD lollipop, drank CBD-infused lemonade, CBD-infused tea, CBD-infused coconut water or smoked a CBD only joint?
Of course you have, or know many people who have, or have many people telling you that CBD is the real cure to what ails you for the marijuana-plant derived, non-psychotropic modern miracle is everywhere, in everything, and that “everything” now includes our World Surf League.
A modern miracle in and of itself seeing our World Surf League is very, very anti-drug and very, very pro-staying in school.*
What? I didn’t catch that because I was misting CBD into my ear canals. Could you repeat? You want to read the official press release? Of course. Here it is:
Today, the World Surf League (WSL) announced a new partnership with cbdMD, a nationally recognized consumer cannabidiol (CBD) brand (NYSE American: YCBD). cbdMD will be the official title partner of the Jaws Big Wave Championships for the 2019/2020 Big Wave season. The official holding period for the cbdMD Jaws Big Wave Championships opened November 1, 2019, and runs through March 31, 2020.
This partnership marks the biggest deal in WSL’s big wave history and WSL’s first-ever CBD sponsorship. This partnership will enable WSL to advance the sport while featuring unique marketing integrations with athlete ambassadors. cbdMD partners with elite athletes across a wide array of sports, including Olympians Kerri Walsh Jennings and Lolo Jones, professional golfer Bubba Watson and more, alongside big wave surfers Makua Rothman and Nathan Florence.
“I’m extremely excited to announce our partnership with the WSL for this year’s cbdMD Jaws Championship,” said Caryn Dunayer, President of cbdMD. “Surfing has been an integral part of our brand strategy and growth within the action sports community and we’re grateful to have this opportunity to solidify our footprint.”
“The WSL is always trying to push the boundaries of progression and break new ground,” said Cherie Cohen, WSL Chief Revenue Officer. “We are excited to announce our partnership with cbdMD for the Jaws Big Wave World Championship, the WSL’s first CBD partnership. Optimal performance is the key to overcoming the unique challenges of big wave surfing. This partnership with a CBD category leader will help inform consumers of CBD’s benefits.”
Now, after we’re done smearing CBD butter on our toast let’s play a guessing game.
How big is the “biggest deal in WSL’s big wave history?”
I’ll start the bidding at $420.00
*The WSL is not very, very pro staying in school preferring that WSL potentials take the homeschool route which leaves more time for Juniors/WQS contests and all their associated fees.
$420.00 Us or Australian $
If it’s us $ your out of my budget
Snoring xxxxxx
Yawnnnnn!
Zzzzzzz…
That is an amazing analogy. Except it falls apart because many non-weed smokers are actually into CBD…
People with kids who have bad epilepsy and other ailments that don’t respond to any prescription drugs and those going through radiation treatment and chemotherapy for cancer do extol the virtues of CBD oil.. Also have heard people who have chronic pain state they get good pain relief using it as an alternate to opioid medications.
What isn’t clear is if what they are using is pure CBD or CBD with different percentages of THC in mix.
There are a several different types of mixes available.
Having talked to someone that produces the stuff on a commercial basis – What they recommend for people going through cancer treatments radiation/chem and to alleviate the side effects such as nausea and loss of appetite is a CBD/THC oil mix. Am assuming this CBD/THC oil mix may well work with chronic pain sufferers better than pure CBD only oil.
And depending on where is bought, does not have to be expensive. Bought the pictured CBD oil think was 150ml pictured below for equivalent of AUD50 and the pure THC one pictured for AUD75.

And can guarantee personally .. the THC version is going to make one very high, very hungry.. then sleep like a baby!

This is a classic in the CBD pondering histories…I praise this from a surfing paradise country, where one can not say anything about cannabis in public—opposite from the original Nazoreans, who carried CBD oil within their personal healing formulas. We all know their later development (New-Testament-Christians) became fearful, in their devotion to government rules, grew & grew absolute.
The WSL gets worse every day.
Ok so when you look up the company you find that the CEO and CFO have a shady past that goes back to the Wolf of Wall street.
Wolf of Wall Street convicted-felon Jordan Belafort found his relationship with Martin Sumichrast amusing enough to include him in his follow up book, Catching the Wolf of Wall Street
Despite losing control of Level Brands reporting, as mentioned previously, he and his board of directors chose to triple his salary to $270,000 per year, and also significantly increase the salary of CFO Mark Elliott, while also awarding themselves bonuses of close to half a million dollars.

Which character was he in catching the wolf?
I believe himself, the quote was this
Wolf of Wall Street convicted-felon Jordan Belafort found his relationship with Martin Sumichrast amusing enough to include him in his follow up book, Catching the Wolf of Wall Street, where he characterizes Sumichrast with this unflattering description:
Downstairs in the lobby, thirty-year-old Marty Sumichrast, Jr., greeted us warmly. He was tall, thin, pasty-faced, and wore steel-rimmed glasses with very thick lenses…he wanted us to raise $10 million for his company…at this point, the company was nothing more than a worthless shell…
Loved t hose books.
Great guy
Just get high. How does everyone actually know that CBD does anything without the combined high that THC provides? It’s my theory that one chemical doesn’t work without the other. Of course.. I’m basing this on pure bro science. Just like the CBD snake oil merchants, except I’m not selling anything.

There’s an idea. Surf the fifth dimension from the safety of your bean bag.
Good point.
CBD is a gateway drug.
Into greener pastures.
