Powder & Rails: Standard Films Part 3

by The Editors on December 15, 2011

We are reminded by how much we hated the music, loved the Spreckels premieres, and by how different the world was then. Follow the jump for parts one and two. [click to continue…]

Shaun White’s Target Home Collection

by The Editors on December 15, 2011

15Qna4-PopupBeginning December 26, 2011 you won’t have to be a hot naked blonde to sleep with Shaun White. Now, thanks to his new collection of bedding, lamps, curtains, storage bins, and piggy banks available at Target people around the country will be able to bed down with the flying tomato no matter what they look like.

“It’s been a fun process creating a home product line with Target,” said Shaun. “We got our first crack at interior design when my brother Jesse and I worked on the Living Room for Target House at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. So, we jumped at the chance to give home design a shot and came up with stuff that we would’ve loved to have when we were growing up.”

Shaun spoke to the New York Times today about his choice in homes, interior design influences, why he’s doing it, and what’s next. Oddly, there was no mention of the rumored Shaun Wipes in this new new product home delivery. Guess Target is still keeping that under wraps. Follow the jump for the official word.

KorduroyTV Goes Begging On Kickstarter

by The Editors on December 14, 2011

Seems like everyone has a plan that involves getting people to give money via the crowd sourced funding site Kickstarter. Well, add Encinitas, California based super soul surf hippie site KorduroyTV. Here’s their pitch:

It has been two years since the launch Korduroy.TV and in that time we have independently produced over 200 shorts, 3 documentaries, and numerous events aimed at creating a new platform for independent surf culture. . . For a consistent flow of rad new shows over this next year we need to raise $18,000 USD to cover our video production, resources and labor costs in order for us to continue spreading digital aloha.

Those who enjoy their surf media served up in a painfully earnest, tragically hipster fashion (and we do mean fashion) click on over to Korduroy.tv’s Kickstarter page and ante up. A $25 pledge will get you a Korduroy Sticker Pack, New Tropi Treats Pineapple Snacks and limited edition “GOT DIGITAL ALOHA?” t-shirt.” Which isn’t a bad deal at all.

It’s been a nearly miraculous recovery for Kevin Pearce and it’s good to see him back on the snow with all his friends. It was even cooler to hear him announcing on the live webcast of the US Snowboarding Grand Prix from Copper Mountain. We’re thinking commentating should be Kevin’s new career. He’s good.
