The Circus Came to Town

The World Championship Tour (WCT) of surfing starts tomorrow on Australia's Gold Coast. I previewed the season, as well as my upcoming story on Kelly Slater in ESPN and EXPN magazines, in last week's Action Sports Report. This week, I talked to top-10 surfer Bobby Martinez, who recently parted with his longtime sponsor Reef nearly two years before his contract ran out, and is surfing the tour without a major clothing sponsor. Check that story out here.

In non-related news ... Last weekend, I convinced 15 of my friends to join the circus (my personal dream) ... for a day (and about 20 more to watch and drink beer). Here are a few photos from my Birthdaypalooza (or Trapezapalyssa) in Santa Monica.
