Halcyon days here again!
We are but hours away from Authentic Brands Group official purchase of Boardriders and, already, surf fans are celebrating. As you know, the ABG juggernaut, owners of the Shaquille O’Neill, Elvis Presley, Marilyn Monroe, though not Marilyn Manson licenses (Manson’s has grown icky) and valued over $20 billion dollars, became excited by Boardriders, home to Billabong, Quiksilver, RVCA and decided to acquire months ago.
After a few hiccups, the deal will be finalized on Aug. 31 and announced to the world by a dumping of Billabong and RVCA shirts into Costco, surf fans buying them up for pennies on the dollar.
What thrills even more, however, is the anticipated “Battle for Beard Oil” with rival Hurley.
Bob’s baby, acquired by Bluestar Alliance in 2019, immediately pivoted factories from best-in-class boardshorts to inflatable pool toys, fingernail clippers and, of course, men’s grooming products.
It has come to dominate the surf-branded unnecessary and landfill-ready market so much that, for the past four years, surf fans felt that they would only have one option for Chinese-made reading glasses.
Now, with Quiksilver, Billabong, RVCA, Volcom (purchased by ABG in a separate deal) all ready to make junk, which will rise to the top?
The early money has to be on RVCA. The “balance of opposites” already pivoted, successfully, to the fight game, years upon years ago and I’d imagine various creams and salves can be put on the market straight away.
Like Goldbond but hip.
Quiksilver might be a sneaker, though, with the “mountain and the wave” the best logo of the bunch and ready to adorn bottles of fingernail polish or baby teething toys.
Billabong?
I don’t really see it.

You know I did test positive with COVID once, but had no symptoms. I of course hammed-it-up and spent a week on the couch looking forlorn. I put it down to my daily Caivera faecal fed fungus powder.
while still in the fam living room…”I didn’t even enter the cave!…well once…”
rumor has it that there will be bearded clam oil, which can be used also as a bearded rectum oil.
So the new multi-purpose oil will also offer genderless Dildo’s……
Wow surfing has never been so great in accommodating…well everybody!
And foreskin regenerator’s for those of us who have suffered genital mutilation!

Hustler remains true to its mission. The dildoes at the surf brands have no shame.
With many a fuckwit podcaster promoting the use of weed and mushrooms the bong could be a dark horse! Xox
You just reminded me I again forgot to put mushy powder on my granola this morning.

Why hasn’t RVCA released a line of surf mats built to get your MMA fight on if need be?
Can you get inflatable bouncy Octagons® I wonder?

There’s so many options, more par for the course.
Gravel, Dirt, Sand, Asphalt, Sidewalks, Tile floors, Wood floors, Stairs, Pool Decks, Team Compounds, and my favorite….cobblestone.

Is that legit?
No sorry mate!
Damn.
I’ve reflected deeply on your rebuke dealing with papering up cheap, or recycled memes. I understand, yet I’m content deprived. I have zero other cyber interactions, memberships, etc. Sadly, there is only BG for me. Yet, BG is enough.
Therefore, following your instruction, I’ve created my first meme featuring my own dog, Stella who is a Great Dane.
The funniest topic never discussed is a large breed indoor animal with diarrhea.
Great photo. Dogs are the best, even when doing hardcore squirts
Paulie Shore sustains many great memories of hilarity, especially on the heels of Kineson and ADC. What an epic era of great pass the torch comedy! Mahalo Wease-oh.
