A sneak peak at a new CDM board model being released through Bing Surfboards. A funky high performance small board. Chris standing at 6’2″, the board measuring in at 5’6″. A recipe for success. Keep an eye out for three new highly unique and functional CDM surfboards in a surf shop near you.

Here are some recent images of Chadd livin’ and training up in Santa Barbara. Chadd is a Santa Barbara native who is know for being an all around waterman and Alaia gliding aficionado. Chadd was part of the SaveNaples.org efforts to save the Gaviota coastline being threatened by development. Chadd and friend Nole Cossart paddled, surfed and camped from Santa Barabara to the Mexican border. Self powered and gliding on Alaia’s these two logged some serious paddle time while raising awareness for the cause. Keep an eye out; you just might see Chadd paddling by way outside your home break.

Dear Matuse Family,
I would like to thank you for supporting me in my surfing. This has been another long season. Matuse, Rusty, Hanger94, Dakine and Grand Ave. Chiropractic have been great to me and I appreciate all the support.
It was a long season but I enjoyed the competition and success. Here is a summation of my competitive year:
NSSA 25+ (10 contest, 8 counts to the title)
8-wins
1-2nd
1-4th
4th at westerns
3rd at nationals
NSSA 35+ (10 contest, 8 counts to the title)
7-wins
2-2nds
1-4th
3rd at westerns
1-National Title
Surfing America
2nd at nationals
I made EVERY Final in every contest I entered this year. This was a first for me. I never placed lower than 4th and I had the only perfect season in the NSSA for 2010. The only disappointment was not winning Westerns and not winning the other two National titles. However, I think gaining 16 wins, three 2nd places, two 3rd places and four 4th places made for a successful year.
Cheers, Rick Takahashi

Showing once again why the Wu ain’t nothin to…you get the picture. Part 2 of a 5 part series.
Here are some samplings of Chris Del Moro’s art work. If you visited the art show you would have been treated to some nice wine, great art and photos. Rumor has it the post show dance party at Casa de CDM was off the chain. Late attendees will know what I’m talking about. If you missed it keep an eye out for more shows in the near future.
