Endless Summer!

Well Folks,

Time is flying by and we are not going to wax lyrical about the abysmal summer we have had although we have had a very decent summer, waves-wise.

Its been a busy season for Offshore with our second store opening at Garretstown with G-town Surf school operating hire and lessons from the same building. Stocking a wider range of boards, clothing and a wide range of hardware for all your surfing needs including changing mats, wetsuits and offering board repairs when needed.

Offshore-GTown in association with G-Town Surf School are opening a Southpoint test centre at our new premises at the Beach. This will give customers the opportunity to try different size hardboards without making the purchasing commitment of buying a new board without knowing how it will suit your ability. Customers will also be able to avail of a "sexy" discount when you decide to purchase a Southpoint board from us.

We are accepting delivery within the next week of all our winter wetsuits, so get prepared to hang up the summer suit and add a couple of extra mill to your suit for extra comfort and longer spells in the water as the winter months set in.

Surf 2Heal is being run from 25-29Aug08. Best of luck to Jon and his team for the week ahead. It will be the culmination of a tremendous amount of work and preparation that has gone into this event. Best of luck to all the Surf2Heal crew. For more information on Surf2Heal check out there website at www.surf2heal.com

All who purchase a product on fri evening and over the course of the weekend, will be entered into a raffle for a Eur50 gift voucher which will be drawn on Monday morning. Just ask for a copy of receipt, put it in the box with name and contact number on the back so we can call you with your prize.

New dvd's in stock including Bra Boys - Story of The Abberton Brothers who grew up at Maroubra Beach in Sydney. This tells the story of how their lifes have been tranformed through surfing.

“Bra Boys” is a film about the cultural evolution of the inner-Sydney beachside suburb of Maroubra and the social struggle of its youth – the tattooed and much maligned surf community known as the Bra Boys. The story is narrated by Australian actor Russell Crowe and is told through the eyes of members of the Bra Boys.

Central to the story is the true-life struggle of the Abberton brothers – Sunny, Koby, Jai and Dakota...one charged with murdering a Sydney standover man, another pursuing a professional surf career, but charged as an accessory in his brother’s legal fight, another trying to hold the family together and a young brother whose inheritance is his siblings’ notoriety.

One California day - From the filmmakers who brought you Singlefin: yellow, DRIVE and Stylemasters, comes a story about surf culture and tradition. One California Day is a visual journey through six distinct coastal regions, capturing the California surfing experience through the surfers who live it. Shot in brilliant super 16mm color film, the movie examines the variety of subtle differences that make California so unique.

Other titles now in stock include Flow, Singlefin:Yellow, Stranger than Fiction, Drive thru New Zealand and many more.
