Jedidiah clothing likes to wander off the beaten path for inspiration…

Need some new trunks for Spring? Want to one up your buddies in the newest recycled plastic boardies with some sweet, one-of-a-kind steez? Drift and Toes on the Nose have you covered…

Ever hear that Biggie song where he’s rhyming about ridin’ a twinny in the city? Neither have we, but if it exists, you know it’s the jam! If the B.I.G. were still around he’d definitely be holding it down at the New York Fish Fry coming up on May 15 or 16 (depending on conditions). Get out and ride some fishies with like-minded brethren and sistren in the Empire State…

Real Estate has been on constant rotation here at Drift since the illustrious Courtney Hawkes put a track from their self-titled debut on our first Playlist. Now, the awesomeness increases to Freakout levels with this video of Real Estate (as in the band) playing in a real estate (as in the type of commerce) office. Add a grip of Italian food and you’ve got yourself a bona fide Friday.

A massive 20×100 throw up for Manifest Equality.

I’ve been geeking out/freaking out about Kelsey Brookes’ art since sometime last fall, so I was stoked to see him featured in this video from filmmaker Gavin Lewis Heslet of The Creative Lives.

SayMayDay has part two of their mini-doc series on Alex Klein, the filmmaker behind God Went Surfing with the Devil, all wrapped up on their site. If you missed the first installment, check it out first, it’s well worth it to get a little background on this film about surfing in the Gaza Strip…

As I was told from a young age by my parents, the television would make my brain go to mush. Although a statement such as that has not been scientifically proven, I am almost sure it’s true.
