OZ YES TOUR
Posted by: RDM | Friday, May 21st, 2010


Where to start …….. After having a amazing winter we disidead to got check our yes shop down under…. We wanted to go hang out with all our supporter and believer of the yes mouvement. So we all jump in a 15 hours flight that seamed more like a 8 hours for me at lease , Jp was on buissness class ( bastard) and meet up in Sydney with our Yes sales man Amine from australia.

DCp was joining us couple day later because of some other comitment he had to do.

Jp and I got picked up at the airport and 30 minute later we where surfing a nice little beach brake…….. Jp and I look at each other and knew we did the right thing to come down under , this trip is going to be a good one !!!!!! After our surf session we when and go some beer to celebrate our first couple hours in australia but what we didn t relized is that we just traveled for 15 hours on a plane and haven t really slept and getting couple beer made u fucking wasted so we cut the night short or the night cut us shot and feel a sleep in a cab ride back to the hotel at 9 pm !!!!!

Next day we flue down to Melbourne to go straight to Torkay beach for some more surf since the tour will start only in a day or 2 . We scored some good ass swell down there the first day . Dcp came the second day and he was fired up to go for some big surf ! I never see him so motivated and that pumped all us up ! we end up having a surf until dark that day…. it was little spooky because of the shark urban ledgend that they like to heet at night !!!!!

After those couple of days of surf it was time to get the show on the road so we head back in Melbourne to do a shop signing session at Ballistyx shop where we had a really good time . It was amazing to see those kids so hemp on what we are trying to bring into snowboarding and supporting our mouvement ! Thank to Tash and Steve to put such a amazing event !

Ok One down couple more to go . Next day we where heading to the Rush distribution office for some dinner and party with the shops and staff at rush….. The night was one of the funyess ever every body was such in good happy mood and we send it all night ! Thank u ED to believe in us u are the man !

Waking up with a massif hang over or no haven t sleep at all can remeber wich one it was but for sure we did it right ! we head back to sydney to meet up with the boy Chris from Australia & NZ Snowboarding magazine for some fun time . Some surf and some quest edit !!!!!! We had blast editing with Chris , thank u so much for the good time !

Now we have 2 more stop too do and we are pump because we gonna meet some more cool shop that support us . The first one is Ess at Parramatta where we meet some cool kids that will start snowboarding this winter on a Yes. board for the first time !!!!!!check out the picture snowboardermag ! Thank to Jason to put a sweet event like that .

All right we are heading to our last stop of the tour a little north of Sydney in the central cost to Ess Erina . We manage to squeeze a little surf session befor the event at Avoca beach where we go fucking worked , the beach brake was massif but good fun and lot of laughts. The venue was fun lot s of young kids where there and made us realyse that Yes. is on in autralia and we definitly gonna make this trip a annual one . here some picture u can check : Essboardstore We would like thank Marc for the amazing venue and can t wait to come back next year…….

Now we are beat up surfing traveling every days for week our body is telling to chill for a minute so we manage to chill 2 more days by the beach and recovering our good memory from this trip.
