These images of Surfrider beach starting showing up on Instagram this morning. That Malibu Lagoon Restoration Project is the the cause of it. They cause the beach to errode so much, the city decide to dig up the beach and place huge boulders in front of the wall to protect it.

Here is a statement from Surfrider LA

The Surfrider Foundation is dismayed that City and County officials have chosen to drop boulders on the beach at Malibu in order to protect a historic landmark from erosion at First Point. Emergency seawalls are inevitable without proactive planning to accommodate ongoing erosion and the impacts of sea level rise. Surfrider continues to advocate for soft beach nourishment solutions at the Adamson Estate and a seasonal management program to encourage flows to exit Malibu Lagoon to the west at Third Point. We are calling on all stakeholders to come to the table and develop short- and long-term sustainable solutions that protect the beach at Malibu.

Harley-Davidson announce they are the Official Motorcycle of the WSl, and to promote it, they are giving away free stickers. You can fill out the form linked down below and they will mail yo a sticker. The sticker itself is pretty cool, we at Shacked filled out the form last week and just received the sticker. Nice 5" vinyl sticker, just like the photo above.

Unfortunately, looks like their marketing department knows absolutely nothing about surfing. This is one of the photos they shot for this campaign.



Now we wait for Wavestorm to announce they are the official surfboard of the WSL.

Nevertheless, it's a cool little sticker, and it's free.Here's the link to get one:

On Sunday afternoon, a couple surfers were returning to the short term parking lot at Tower 26 and saw this lady trying to rip the license plate off their car. She was able to yank the frame off and walked away when they showed up. As on called the cops, the other started filming her. He posted the confrontation to his Instagram story (that's where these screen grabs originally came from, we reposted them to our Insta-story too). According to the guys, she was yelling back at them then when off and lock herself in the bathroom, still screaming till the cops showed up.
