Mexico: 10% Surf, 90% Survival, 100% Questionable Decisions

South swell abound. hurricane lined up on the east coast. Hawaii and Tahiti on fire. Fiji pumping. Dunno whats up with Europe but wow something finally popped for this slow summer season! Jeremy just got back from a strike mission to Mex while we chased (very well seasoned) leftovers around Socal - he seems pretty fired up, and has submitted this report:

"Dear Legend of the Foam,

We just returned from a highly scientific expedition to Mexico — and by “scientific” we mean chasing waves like feral sea creatures, surviving on PBJs, Liquid IV and hope, and repeatedly testing the tensile limits of SPF 50. The waves? Majestic. The water? Bath-temperature perfection. The life responsibilities we ignored to get there?. . . . Mounting in the background like a tsunami of adulting. But hey — the boards held strong through every perfect wall, late drop or rail gouge. These aren’t just boards, they’re freedom slabs, designed to teleport you out of your boss’s Zoom call and straight into a barrel.

And listen — if you’re currently bored, caffeinated, and not as broke as we are we’ve got boards in stock right now. They’re whispering your name - you too can trade spreadsheets for high line barrel threading splendor and prove to the world that you, my friend, are a certified slot doctor.

BUT. All that aside (cause I'm still salty that I didn't go with him), Whats legitimately worth noting is the build style of this current new batch of Pedestrians in stock - our friend Jorge Boyce is a vacuum bag lover (like myself), and unlike almost anyone in California, he's willing to go the extra mile and do the deed for us. WHAT IS VAC BAGGING you might ask? well - to put it very simply, its when you take a wet, laminated board, and throw it into an air-tight bag, then suck the atmosphere out of it like theres no tomorrow with a cool vacuum pump. What this does - is remove excess resin, which is brittle and heavy, as well as suck the glass down to the shape as true as possible, while also leaving a clean surface that reduces the amount of hotcoat resin necessary in the next steps. SO - lighter, truer, stronger, and super badass. HUGE FAN.
