Match the Surf Brand with the girl!

I thought I'd do a super-relevant post about the brands since even the LA Times is running articles titled "It's Getting Gnarly for Surf Gear Makers."

There's a LOT of rumors goin' round bout which company is going down which set of tubes. "Action sports giants such as Quiksilver Inc. are trying to stay afloat as the economic crisis that started on Wall Street makes its way to the beach," The LA Times tells us.

So I thought I'd offer the readers a challenge: Match and win!

Each girl below represents one of the major surf brands.  There are seven clues for each girl that will help you match them up with the brand they personify.

GO AT IT!

Whoever submits the correct brand for each girl, along with the 7 clues for each girl, will win a PostSurf bro bag of surf industry goodies!

    Just guesses but…

    Top Right: “STUBbies”
    Bottom Left: Hot Tuna
    Bottom Right: Gotcha

    This is obviously another swipe by the liberal media at corporate america. Anyone with half a brain knows that selling overpriced, poor fitting clothing to newbies and teenagers is a fail safe business strategy. Those godless, liberal, hipsters at the LA Times just want to see the god-fearing corporate surf industry go down.

  • Kook-on-a-leash says:

    What the hell was the question? I’m too busy enjoying the bottom left, escalator picture to care to play the game.

  • Top Left: Billabong, because they just keep buying companies like some chick that cant say NO to plastic surgery.

    Top Right: Lost, because this just looks like some dumb chick Lost would hire to work at their tradeshow booth.

    Bottom Left: O’Neill, because that is an actual real picture of Jordy Smith going out to the mall in Auss.

    Bottom Right: Quiksilver, because that shits just old, and its on their last breath.

  • live2surf4ever says:

    I don’t know anything about surf themed clothing companies because I’m not a 13 year old girl.

  • Steve says:

    It’s a trick question! They’re all Rooka! Or Ruka! Or rvca! Or RewKuh!

    Think about it: It’s top heavy (top left picture), hobbling along on one leg (top right), willing to slut itself out to anyone at the expense of its public dignity (bottom left), and is really just barely clinging to life on every means of support available as it builds speed circling the ever present drain (bottom right).

    Well, either RVCA or every other surf company of your choosing. Potato, potahto.

  • Bottom left is going to the breast enhancment clinic that is on the first floor which goes kind of not that well as we see in the top left:”Oh, these barels are heavy, it’s like my legs can’t support them..wipeout…krc..ouch” and so we come to top right. The last one is probably volcom or insight since it makes no sense to this story…
    What was the question?

  • chickenfingers says:

    Is that Bethany Hamilton?

  • justinp says:

    somebody pulls pictures off Dlisted…

  • Duke would tow says:

    Ok top left is Billabong because they are always trying to go bigger
    top right is Roxy because girls can do anthing.
    bottom left is volcome they just do care and will go to any lengths to prove it like buy over priced houses on the NS
    and the easy one is the Dead Quik lady kelly is the only this keeping them on life support. Should of used a bald guy to that pic.

    One remembers that modern life is very expensive, but different people require money for various things and not every person earns big sums money. Therefore to get some loan and just term loan should be good way out.
