Found: The lucky man who gets to suckle at the robust teat of surfing’s most influential voice as Stab magazine’s new senior editor!

Sent a one-page cover letter and single page resume to: [email protected]

The world was thrown into a tizzy, days ago, when surfing’s most influential voice, Stab Editor-in-Chief Ashton Goggans was on the lookout for a new senior editor to be his right hand. Resumes flew fast and furious but one stood out and if longtime underground star Nugable is not on his way to Venice-adjacent right now it will be a bigger sham than the Iowa caucus…

The Nike/Hurley sale is perhaps the biggest surf industry story of the last decade. How would you cover it, what stories would you want to read?

Andy Irons was the biggest story in the last decade. Hurley being sold to (*stolen by) a venture capitalist isn’t even close.

You can interview one current A-List surfer. Who do you call and what questions do you ask?

I’d interview Gabe Medina and ask him if Gerry Lopez appeared in a commercial spot with Richard Nixon and Pol Pot instead of appearing in Big Wednesday, would we still love him?

Pick two products from brands that you think would be good fits for Stab’s audience, and give us 150-300 words about each.

I don’t write advertising copy. Sorry.

Grab your two favorite short surf clips from the last year from YouTube or Vimeo, and give us a 300-word write up for a post on our site.

I stopped watching surf clips when Marine Layer Productions died. Instead, I’d make a Tik Tok story about how much I miss Vine and Marine Layer.

I sent the last copy of my resume to Big Brother Skateboard Magazine. They haven’t called back yet, but my fingers are crossed.

What kind of globalist trash is this magazine? It full of globalist propoganda and garbage being pushed by Ge0Rge $ 0R0 s. How f kin stupid can you be to believe any of this?

Wayne Lunch

Is that the son of Super Mario in that photo ?

Nick Richon

I conquered the CAPTCHA. I’m not sending you all that shit but I can suckle a teat provided it appeals to me and I guess a few other factors.

Sellme fitzgobbins

Is that top photo the results of too small a pond and too much gratis Bud Light? Looks like someone is about to throw a wild slap

passive aggression doesn’t make up for getting slapped and acting like a lil bitch.

Rhett Corbett

This has been happening for years. Killer Whales attacking Great Whites only to eat their livers. There is proof. It happened in South Africa when 2 killer whales called Port & Starboard (named after their dorsal fins) attacked numerous Great Whites. Which is why there have been a lack of sightings of Great Whites in South Africa for almost 2 years. The Great Whites know that Killer Whales are a danger to them & leave the area.

Less sea monster clickbait, more Ashton clickbait!

Oh, wait…

Chas Smith

It’ll be wall-to-wall ahead of Goggans vs Smith III!

eric

So many layers of completely esoteric weird sarcasm, very impressive, how do any of you guys even have time to surf?

Lloyd Christmas

What is surfing?

channelbottom

Something to do with sharks??!?

Dunno

Italo Post Heat Interview

Surfing is something u should not do

NEGATRON

I think we’re the Romans😳.

Justin Housman

Think my new fave surfer is the masked hero doing the BG board test schralping. Clue as to identity?

NEGATRON

I could, but then you’ll work it out and Santa will stop bringing you Christmas presents.

20 mule team

He kind of makes me feel lousy though. Without being able to identify him as a pro, I assume he is a normal guy like me and I am just very terrible at surfing in comparison. I guess that’s true either way though. Shit

Chad Lebrone

I’ll give you a clue. If you’ve ever surfed on the Goldy, he’s probably burned you.

VAL

Because that narrows it down?

Justin Housman

I assume that’s SOP for the Goldy though. Gimme more? Former low-level CT’er? Super handsome? I have a face in mind but can’t remember his name.

stinky

I enjoyed reading this useless information.

BrooklynBarrelDodger

I’d interview Gabe Medina and ask him if Gerry Lopez appeared in a commercial spot with Richard Nixon and Pol Pot instead of appearing in Big Wednesday, would we still love him?

i met a nice Brazilian woman recently, non-surfer, but she was all over the Medina / Bolsonaro stuff. Loved Italo, the people’s champ!

longtom

just a point of order.
Hi Nug.

If you count the coffee table jump and the surf expo slap wouldn’t any future fracas be Goggans/Smith 3?

ricmatic

I’ve been petitioning for this!
Its 3!

NUG

The Thrilla in Vanilla.

jaa dee

Lol thanks!!!!

Karl Von Fanningstadt

Kicking Ash is funny and all, but this couldn’t simply have been just a comment? Nothing really there. Seems odd to elevate something so pedestrian. Keep this up and next thing you know we’ll have author Bex unleashed on us.

NEGATRON

Elevate us Karl with another workplace written resume comment/novel.

And I really think everyone needs to back off Ashton. We all know what happened to Jesus, I for one don’t want the Messiahs blood on my hands.

Mild mannered civil servant

He’s not the Messiah, he’s a very *______ boy…

*Insert preferred adjective.

NUG

Thank you. Pedestrian is my middle name.

Audit In Progress

God, why would you give away a Big Brother?

Chief Hot stuff

My demands are unlikely to be met.
