-July 14-16
Mary Osborne Girlie Surf Camp
Successful week learning to surf with 12 6-8 year olds this week in Ventura, CA. There were tears, huge smiles, long rides and memories to laugh a lifetime. The moms even made it out!

COWABUNGA DAY

"Cowabunga Day"
For the last six months I have been mentoring a young girl Cecily Coco with her Gold Award for Girl Scouts. Our goal was to take disabled children surfing from our local community. It was a huge success. Thanks to Ventura Makos and Matt Miller for their extra help!

Nomads TV Show


Check out Dave Nash photographer for Nomads TV show. We filmed the majority of the show in Costa Rica during the Robert August Surf n Turf.



"NOMADS is a one-hour, high-definition (HD) television show produced for RUSH HD. Its content is part action/adrenaline/board sports and part travel documentary. NOMADS follows the best athletes in their respective sports, taking them on the road to exotic locations. Once there, locations, athletes and their sports unfold into a compelling and unique viewing experience. Each episode is dedicated to a specific sport and is a one-hour adventure in skiing, snowboarding, kayaking, mountain biking, surfing, B.A.S.E., moto and many more."

Dave came up to Ventura for a more personal look into my hometown lifestyle. Stay tuned to see the final show airing soon.

Brass Media Follow up Blog

We recently got to catch up with Mary Osborne, pro surfer, former Surf Girls star and May 2006 cover story. Mary says things are going great, this past week she won a Pro Longboard Association event in Ventura, California. She had one thing to say about the contest–”Wahooo!!!”

Surfing competitively isn’t the only thing Mary’s been up to; she filled us in on two other projects she’s immersed herself in. First off, Mary will be hosting an All Girls Surf Camp in August in association with Ventura Makos Surf Camp.

Then in October, Mary is slated to be a featured surfer aboard The Surf Cruise Cup, a cruise that’s all about surfing. Joining her will be three-time longboard champion Colin McPhillips, and Robert “Wingnut” Weaver–who starred in two Endless Summer movies, as well as the amazing 2003 surf documentary Step Into Liquid.

“[The] Surf Cruise Cup is going to be a blast. I recommend all families, surfers and music lovers join in,” Mary says.

The boat will set sail on a week-long trip to prime surf spots in Cabo San Lucas, Mazatlan and Puerto Vallarta. Check out this poster (PDF).
