Look At Me!

Reader Ed sent in a video of himself. Who am I to say no?

Happy Holidays to All!

Thanks for having fun with me throughout the year. The YDD family wishes you a happy holiday season....and hopefully some swell soon!

You Know It's Flat When....

....one of these is starting to look appealing.

Donkey Point

At least they named the spot correctly. I'm not sure if I would have put this footage out there, I'd be embarrassed.

Talk About Flat Rocker...

Thanks to reader copeland for sending me the link.

Bread to Fly

KaserOne over at Daily Bread sent this interesting one in. I'm guessing there's no photoshop involved, but I can't for the life of me figure out how this guy got in this position.

Funboard Redux

I repeat, there's nothing fun about a funboard...even when they are called a "speed egg"! Reader Phil sent this one in....thanks Phil.

Hatteras Meltdown

Reader Russell sent in this East-Coast layback pic that he found on The Happy Barracuda blog. Apparently, the pic was sent in by the reader's Mom. How nice.

Stick to Reindeer, Santa!

Thanks to reader copeland for sending this in.

Head and Shoulders

...a surf move, not the shampoo. This chilly pic sent in by reader Paul, found at MySurfingPictures.

Netherlands

I'm not sure that I'd be in a lineup with that out the back. Pic by Danny B.

7:10 of the Worst Surf Movie Ever Produced

Your Daily Hippo

This pic gave reader copeland night sweats.

Friday Beatdown

Salt-water enema in three....two....one....

Laugh At Those Silly Surfers

We've all seen the pics of the Cardiff Statue all dressed up, but rarely do we get the pulled-back view. This is probably not the reaction that the City of Cardiff envisioned when they approved the installation of the now-famous Surfer Statue. Yes, Cardiff, they are laughing at you.

Poetry In Motion

Who would have thought...Spock is a regular foot! This excellent pic sent in by reader Paul.

Say It Ain't So, Kelly!

I guess the guy has to feed his kid somehow! LOL

Roy's Toy Gets Wet

This vid gets an All Time Donkey designation. I'll let you figure out the many possible reasons why.

Have A Great Thanksgiving

Monday Morning Tubes

Reader copeland sent this in. It would be more fun if this weren't photoshopped.

Oh No! Ono

Look Out Roy...And Everyone Else in the Lineup!

This video has been circling the Interwebs for a few days and thought it made sense here. Thanks to reader copeland for sending it my way as well.

At Least They're Trying To Surf

Almost Surfing Related

This week's theme is continued...surfing as a marketing tool.

Another Useless Surf Accessory

Introducing "Surf Goggles".

Bungie Surfing

Do You Dare?

Do you dare? That was the question posed with this submittal. I guess my answer is clear. I support surfboards made in the USA, by surfers in the USA. Surfboards should not be imported. Support your local surfboard craftsmen! My apologies for the language on the pic...but then again, this isn't a family website.

Oldtimer

I'd love to know the story behind this pic. Is it a random Euro in a suit who stumbled across a group of surfers and wanted to take a pic with a board for his grandkids, or some legend holding one of his early crafts? We'll never know. Either way, I enjoyed the pic and found it here.

plcasey Stepping Up!

Reader plcasey is stepping up this week, 2 for 2! It looks like alan the intern has some competition! Knowing my luck, I'd be the guy with the CI diving for my life in this pic.

In Training...

Thanks to reader plcasey for sending this one in. I'm surprised that they didn't get Sam George to endorse this product.

Obama!

A fitting end to this election week. Reader Mike, from Daily Stoke sent me this. I'm not politically inclined, but I could have sworn that Obama was a goofyfoot! I'm calling photoshop! Thanks Mike and a good weekend to all!

Bubba Gump Shrimp

Reader Mark found this pic of a guy looking for his lunch. Photo from Shrimpcreole.com.

I'd Have To Vote "Yes" For This Proposition

Reader kevin sent this in. Pic found on the 2ndlight forum.

Guns?

If you see this....run the other way. Pic from here.

A Couple From the Road

Here are a couple shots from my recent trip up the California coast. The first kept me out of the water at a very sharky surf spot north of Big Sur. The second just scared me. It was found in a town in Central California that was the last place I expected to see the SUP Pimp in action.

Kyping Kaser

Friday's donkey has to be worthy of the weekend. This pic from KaserOne's site fits the bill. I'm not sure what he was thinking, but hey, we knew he wasn't a rocket scientist anyway. Have a great weekend everyone and keep your kids safe this Halloween (keep them away from Kaser's van)!

Squatter's Rights

Pic found by 000.

NOT A DONKEY POST

This video just gave me hope that our sport can be saved. Simply insane. I will surf this wave before I die.

Hard Core

Huh?

Beached Whale

...well, not quite a whale but what was the driver of this car even thinking? Photo from found-shit.com.

Sorry Drew....

Drew at Puerto from DrewBrophy.com on Vimeo.

I'm not diggin it.

Bloody Ben

I've had my share of run-ins with my board, which got me to see what I could find on Google this morning. Ben has a nice one here!

Kissing Cousins

Believe it or not, these guys are related. Pic sent in by the one and only Frank Booth.

Bailing

I'm bailing on society later this week to try and get my surf back on. I've been out of the water for much of the year due to injury and I'm going to try to shake the rust off on a solo trip up the California coast. Me, a little food, and a truck full of bonzers will hopefully do the trick. YDD will be back next week.

Pic from sunsetsurfers.

Smile

Thanks to the Beluga, we've got this photo. Enjoy your weekend, don't let the DOW get you down.

Fruit Boots - Let's Roll

Thanks to reader Rickoray for the heads up!

Make It Stop, Please

Keep Trying Will

Open Season

Joe Ewing shared this mess of a wave at OBSD. I'd hate to be the guy on the bottom!

How To Impress The Ladies

Shredder "Sloplay" impressively stuffs a girl and posts the pictures on the Internet to show how hard he rips! LMFAO

King of Donkeys candidate.

The Surfing Melting Pot

A surf school in California uses the above picture to attract some clients.

While the above picture to attract others.

It sure would be nice if they put them all together and not highlight the issue. Surfing should be color blind.

Charles "Donkey" Baer

That's right folks, the original Internet donkey. If you don't know about CWB, you've not truly experienced the Internet. I've got about as much regard for Chuck as I do the rest of the world's politicians...that'd be none. Ah yeah, get it on!

Skim Milk Please

I don't normally visit or post pics from Daily Bread since KaserOne isn't my biggest fan. I do like most of his pics though. This is a good one sent to me by reader Brent. Now, everyone be good Internet users and click over to Kaser's site and enjoy the rest of his show.

What Does The Future Hold?

Candyland or beatdown?

Who Is The Real Victim Here?

Canoe Surfing Fun

Almost as compelling as a SUP video!

Impressive Surf Video

OK, so I've posted up some really bad surf videos lately...hopefully this will redeem me. Reader Waldo (where has he been?) sent me the link to this. I was glued to my monitor as I watched it. It has it all: switch-footed ripping, barrels, reverse-fin takeoffs, kickflips. I was in awe!

Another Manasquan Moment

New Jersey super hero. Thanks to reader Bob.

Where's Chevy Chase?

Why must people put up videos of their family vacations on YouTube? This classic has some serious flow-rider action. Great weekend to all!

Lost

One of the few shows on television that I actually enjoy is about to start up again. I hope that they don't let Evangiline Lilly surf though. Pic from Egostatic.com.

Nude

Reader cottons burned my eyes with this one...thought I'd do the same to yours. Trail 6 expression session. I need to go throw up now!

Jersey Girls

Reader Bob sent in these great pics from a recent "event" at Manasquan Inlet.

I Need A Nap

Anyone got a pillow? Sent in by reader Brent, found on MagicSeaweed, and photographed by myphototopix.

Worst Surfing Video Ever

Watch the whole thing...I dare you!

Surfing is a family event. Pic sent in by reader Cory!
