Surf's Always Up Somewhere


I found this display of surfboards at an art gallery/design studio in Soho. Soho (which means south of Houston Street) is in lower Manhattan in New York City. This place is the office of Partners and Spade. Andy Spade cocurated the show with a famous surfing campany called Quiksilver to showcase surf memorabalia from 80's for the release of THE EIGHTIES AT ECHO BEACH, a book about surfing in southern California 30 years ago.
These boards are made by a fellow named Stussey who sold his name and company awhile ago, so he started a new brand and here it is on these sticks he shaped.
