TGIF

Not much swell on the horizon, so these guys will be stoked!

Lightning Bolt

A mockery of a once core brand. What a shame.

What A Rat!

I was doing a Google search for "Laird Wipeout" and this came up. Draw your own conclusions, but I'm firmly in the "Blame Laird" camp.

Barrel of His Life!

As surfers, we see waves everywhere. This guy just got the barrel of his life!

Eunic!

This move could have only ended in castration.

The Legend of the Dancing Queen

So there is this very vocal attorney (redundant, I know) who is determined to get the world on SUP's. He apparently rules the day at a certain SUP BB, but also surfs regularly at the break where I grew up surfing.

Anyway, this guy is (reportedly) absolutely clueless when it comes to etiquette in the lineup, controlling his board and equipment, etc. He is known as the Dancing Queen!

Dancing Queen, are you ready for your closeup?

What Are You Wearing?

Limp wrist, silly fashion...this guy's got to be from South Beach.

#1

Yes, the best from the archives right here. Enjoy!

#2

Sniff. Kaserone photo.

#3

This one was originally sent in by Frank Booth, although I'm not sure if he actually took the picture. I didn't realize that Santa Claus was so mean to kooks.

#4

Kaserone from Daily Bread submitted one of the best head-dips that I've ever seen.
The bigger question is: Did he make it?

#5

This guy is f@cked!

#6

In all honesty, this is probably my favorite but I couldn't put it at #1. If you analyze it, that's an impressive amount of spray considering his weight!

Throw this guy a hamburger! Pic originally sent in by Rick, I think.

#7

Classic OB clusterfuck!

#8

This fantastic adventure brought to you by the San'O Bad Boys Club.
I bet both of these turkeys are now riding SUPs.

#9

What's going to work? Teamwork! I love the symmetry, the Internet Strength Man, and that girl's flexibility!

Enjoy the weekend...more YDD favorites next week!

#10

Keg bellies, enemas, chaos...it's what makes surfing so fun!

Looking Back, Then Moving Forward

I thought that it would be nice to do a little warm-up before moving ahead, reminding everyone of some of the best material YDD has shown and getting the juices flowing once again. Over the next couple of weeks, I'll be posting what I think were the Top Ten YDD photos.

Here are a few that didn't make the cut:

OK, We're Back

The 5th of July is always a bit of a shocker. Do your part and help clean up our beaches.
