SKINNY MEAT HEAD - EITHAN OSBORNE

Matt and I were driving south from San Francisco when he said out of nowhere ‘Eithans kinda like a… Skinny Meat Head.’ And not only was it funny it was a brilliant description. Eithan’s got a lot of angst and muscle packed in that tiny little frame. Erratic and un-calculated he’s full throttle at all times. It pours into his surfing. Gritty aggression always on the edge of going off the rails but sticking it more often than not.

We followed Eithan around the globe to document surf trips and the challenge of balancing free surfing with the ups and downs of trying to achieve his dream of qualifying for the WSL Championship tour.

Hope you enjoy!

Team Edit: Dumpster Diver 2

Watch some of CI's leading Team Riders in a purely surf action "TEAM EDIT" for the Dumpster Diver 2.

The idea for this board came when Dane was riding his original Dumpster Diver while filming "Out of the Rafters" edit for Chapter 11 last year. He was was tripping out how how tiny and short the Dumpster Diver felt and wanted to build a longer - modernized version that still tapped into the magic of the original.

The DD2 has a wider nose and tail, more nose and tail rocker, and a more subtle single concave. These updates, among other tweaks, allow the board to excel in a wider range of conditions and letting your rip as hard as you think you do.

Dane also made a special set of fins for the board, that will work well in other designs if you like that slightly 2+1 feel.

Ride 1" shorter than your Happy Everyday.

Drive Thru USA - Episode 1: "We Got Dane"

Drive Thru USA takes you back on the road with some of the world's best surfers as they spend two weeks traveling to some of the best surf spots and most pristine coastlines in America.

Drive Thru 10 begins and sees the crew in San Clemente picking up the final member of the trip, World Tour Surfer Griffin Colapinto. After loading up the RV , Donavon and Benji get the crew up to Ventura to meet legendary surfer Dane Reynolds and convince him to jump on the Drive Thru.

Out Front: Santa Barbara

Lodged between the majestic Santa Ynez hills and the mighty Pacific Ocean, Santa Barbara County is a lot more than its marquee wave, Rincon, aka the “Queen of the Coast.” It also has about a half dozen other world-class righthand pointbreaks in its corduroy pockets — as well as numerous options just south. In fact, it wouldn’t be a stretch at all to call SB the most powerful surfing kingdom in the continental United States (even without the “Surf City” moniker).

Dane Reynolds is Two Happy

Britt Merrick worked with Dane Reynolds and Parker Coffin on developing this board. The Two Happy takes all the high-performance speed and flow of the original Happy but makes it more accessible and user-friendly for a broader range of surfers and conditions. With added entry rocker and increased double concave, the Two Happy is looser, rolls rail to rail more easily, and carves better in the pocket. Our team describes the board as exceptionally fast, responsive, and under the feet. The fuller rails and wider, thicker tail block provide ease of paddle, ride, and acceleration. To enjoy all of our state-of-the-art shortboard performance design characteristics packed into one easy-to-ride and accessible board, look no further than the Two Happy—now available at your local surf shop or cisurfboards.com.
