What’s cuter than baby kittens?

Girls in bikinis with surfboards!

It's been 52 years since Gidget ruined surfing, and seven years since Blue Crush ruined surfing again...

Which means it's time for the mainstream media to publish another shocking expose on how women are finally breaking into Surfing!

This time around, Vanity Fair has a nifty article on surf girls.

Here's VF laying some knowledge on us:

"And these aren’t just beach bunnies paddling to “California Girls.” “It’s all about sharing waves,” says former world champ Sofia Mulanovich, 26, of Peru, in characteristic surfer parlance. “One of the best girl surfers could probably beat 80 percent of the men.” Which raises the question: How will the dudes impress them when they’re left behind, getting crushed inside the set?"

POW!

Vanity Fair's photoshoot featured "female surfing prodigies" ranging in age from 14 to 26.  Coincidentally, all of the girls happen to be relatively attractive.  World number two Silvana Lima did not attend.

I would never fault these talented young surfers for leveraging their looks in the hope of furthering their careers. Nor would I fault Vanity Fair for including the 20-year-old Partridge Twins (who are not in the WQS top 100) instead of Carissa Moore or Stephanie Gilmore.

But I will say this:  When it comes to "working it," these talented youngsters have nothing on Daize Shayne.

As you may remember, Daize managed to leverage a longboarding world title into a modeling career AND music career, which peaked with her performance at the 2004 Republican Convention.

Daize's website seems to be frozen in time right after her triumphant appearance before the GOP in 2004, when her debut album came out.

I'll leave you with some inspiring words from Ms. Shayne, taken from a brilliant interview Surfing Mag performed prior to the GOP convention:

"I just want to support a president who has the same morals as I do, you know. I'm not even qualified enough to say who's a better president. I'm voting for Bush because he prays, he believes in traditional marriage, and he loves God, and I love God too. If there was a different Democrat I might vote for him, but with politics you can't win with anyone, so I don't even know why we're talking about it.

Well, we're talking about it because you're playing at the Republican National Convention.
Yeah, okay, I know. I support a president that prays....But, you know, everyone's like, "Oh, this war is Bush's fault" and they see Fahrenheit 911 and everything, but if you check out what really happened, if you really start looking at the evidence, a lot more things come to light. Honestly, I'd rather fight a war on someone else's territory than mine. Everyone's always talking about how Bush is such a bad guy, but at the same time these terrorists are coming and killing innocent people every day. Over here, over there, they just want to take over the world.

I could be totally wrong. I just want to build a bridge between everybody being so against one side or the other."

    The cutest ‘baby kitten’ of this lot would be the New Yorker. It’s a shame she’s 14 years old though. That’s 2 years past expiry date. I’m cool.

  • drexnefex says:

    i wish there were girls on the beaches up here.

    She was right! George was awesome!!!

  • Bubba says:

    I’d like to punch Daize Shayne. With my penis.

  • ki says:

    Did someone mention the Partridge Twins! So…what was the point you were trying to make?

  • Some nice photos Ki. Really.

  • That’s it! Surfing’s ruined . . . again!

    I’m off to pioneer the slopes on my SUPS–Stand Up Paddle Snowboard!

  • charliep says:

    I bet 100% of the surf industry agree with daisy completely, probably along with the whole asp tour.

    I didn’t hear anyone say anything against it thats for sure.

  • Sharpy says:

    Quote from the VF piece “photographed by iconic surf photographer Michael Halsband”.
    Forgive my ignorance but I’ve never heard of the iconic Mike H?
    Does he shoot for ER/ING/TWS or is he on some higher plane?
    They’d have been better off getting the new ASP shots of the top CT girls, at least they look classy and professional…

  • Pete Meatwhistle says:

    Q: What do you get when you put those girls in the same room with Pete Meatwhistle?

    A: At least ten years in county.

  • SUP SUX says:

    “Daize brings the California dream to the world. She’s a champion athlete, hot model and talented musician who has it all-in a natural, wholesome way. She is the epitome of the California dream. She appeals to men, women, boys and girls. She represents a lifestyle-an American and California lifestyle that is intriguing and exciting. She looks great in both a beach or nightclub setting. She can promote any product that fits “the lifestyle.” From Coke to SUV’s, from singing in a nightclub to surfing on a beach, people want what Daize represents.”……IM SOLD !!! SHE’S RADICAL!

  • luchador says:

    More props to girls surfing, I know I like to see cute girls who actually have hobbies besides shopping and ‘The Hills’, but seriously, lets face reality, if I had tits and a vagina, I would be ranked in the top ten… fuck the mainstream and their bullshit articles on surfing lifestyle and female independence

  • TRUTH says:

    daize shayne is actually a bit more intelligent that I thought, I’m glad she has her morals in line, and actually stands up for Jesus during these Godless times. HMM, funny coincidence that the economy is failing right after church attendance begins to decline. GO DAIZE!!!!

  • Illegal Alien says:

    I WANT TO FUCK ALANA AND THE PARTRIDGE TWINS SO HARD

  • M says:

    Alana easily has the best bottom turn

  • ReB says:

    Lew, why are you dissing Daize ?

    For a San Diegan, she’s QUITE well-informed.

  • gargle gargle says:

    Sharpy says:
    Check out Patrick Trefz’s film Thread if you want to see something about Michael Halsband.
    What ever you do don’t check out Michael Halsband’s super 8 movie, surf reels.
    It fucking sucks.

  • ki says:

    re: TRUTH

    …far from it. You speak about the economy as if it’s something that reacts and changes on a day to day basis. Our economic situation has been a long time coming, you could even say it started while church attendance was peaking. While churches were passing around the collection plate to build mega-churches they could have been telling middle America to pay off their credit cards instead.

    Please keep you religion out of my surfing.

    re: Richard Avedon

    Thanks!

  • I would like to say that I really respect Bruna Schmitz. What she’s doing for ladies’ surfing and for the progress of lady’s sporting in general is almost unprecedented. It’s really a shame that it’s taken so long for ladies, beautiful or not, to be recognized as talented lady professionals who excel at their given lady sports. Bruna can, in fact, surf extremely well for a lady. That much has been documented in many lady sporting publications.

    Take note you chauvinist pigs, as Bruna is carefully carving out her place in ladies’ history alongside such legendary ladies surfers as Lisa Anderson, Pam Burridge and Munga Barry.

    She has proven that the ladies can surf just like men, if not, of course, actually with men.

    I am so proud of her, as a lady. And so should you.

    And by ‘proud,’ I of course, mean erect.

  • JimG says:

    I keep hearing how good these girls have become & then reality hits: I watch a women’s heat. The top 10% of male surfers at my local beach easily out surf every girl on tour. Seriously - watch the semis & finals of Bells.

  • Kurt says:

    @ truth, if your not the modern day story of jesus driving the market out of temple i don’t know what is

  • Occy's Mum says:

    Fucking genius. And by genius, of course, I mean embarrassing.

  • Cyrus says:

    We had Daize Shayne on our radio show a couple of times. Pretty boring interview. I think we had her on the second time because the suits who run the Mavericks Surf Contest (all due respect to Jeff Clark, who only handles selecting the surfers and making the contest call) decided to do a Mavericks music tour one summer and had Shayne as the headliner. We were doing a favor for them, and in return Shayne decided to praise jeebus during the interview. She’s a bible-thumping kook. Not to mention there shouldn’t be a title of any kind for longboarders. That’s like having a racing series for minivans. Makes no sense.

  • JimG says:

    All good points Cyrus. Unbelievable that w/ all the information available, people still praise Jesus. Athletes are especially bad b/c they are especially uneducated. If you believe in a god that intervenes in human affairs, then you don’t question or research anything because you are either afraid of what you will find or are just intellectually lazy & would rather believe in fairy tales.

  • Pobby Brown says:

    @Sharpy

    Michal H’band is a pretty well-regarded photographer. The image of Warhol and JP Basquiat is pretty darn iconic. He also surfs and takes photographs of surfers.

    Not a surf photog in the industry sense.

  • Gravo says:

    Despite the spirited writing and insightful comments, PostSurf lacks one key editorial ingredient: more photos of Alana Blanchard in the buff. Today’s post represents a first step in addressing this egregious oversight.

  • steepers says:

    juse cruise to hawaii. consent age is 14. have a good one.

  • Jessie says:

    Daize,

    Get your country-ass down here and help me with this moonshine! Boss Hog is on the way and Cooter and I need help covering everything up with bales of hey.

  • chickenfingers says:

    At 26 Sophia is an elder of the Womens WCT. Thats like some fucked up mormon shit right there. Daize you should start praying for skin cancer research.

  • lols says:

    Daize Shayne is very stupid.

    Those Partrigde girls are pretty.

  • Ballz says:

    Daize,

    Thank you for bridging the gap between politically uninformed religious zealots and surfers. Your religion scares me. Wait, let me pull out my New Testament. Damnit, you’re right. Jesus said, “protect the unborn babies but fuck the already born ones living in Iraq.” It also indicates that Jesus said on the road to Damascus, “let the bombs drop as long as the war is on somebody else’s territory.” And most importantly, he reiterated that “homosexuals are evil and must not marry.” What a viscious bastard he was.

  • Daize Shayne has the mental capacity of a fossilized dodo bird’s undescended testicle. Which may, or may not, have any bearing on the fact that her singing sounds like the warbled brays of a dying mule being repeatedly flogged with a toaster oven in the dusty streets of Guadalajara.

    I seriously thought she might start advising all of us to start watering our plants with Gatorade by the end of that interview.

    Speaking of idiocracy, I just caught another glimpse of Alana in her thong.

    “Go away… I’m ‘bait’n.”

  • A.I.'s Dealer says:

    Forgive me if this is gloating, but I’m pretty sure I can surf better than Frieda Zamba.

  • Occy's Mum says:

    @ JimG. SNAP! And word.

  • SmyrnaJeff says:

    Boards and broads don’t mix.

  • these cunts have no integrity. meat on a bone.

  • lazer says:

    Lisa Anderson and Malia Jones for the Hall of Fame. Alana Blanchard is not-so-quietly making a strong case for herself as well.

    By the way Lewis, have you seen your rival FreddyP and Andrew’s new look at InSurfNews? Time to step your game up, you appear to be losing ground. Your comment section is also rapidly disintegrating due to an influx of shitty thinking and poor grammar. Time to bring back the alter-egos.

    This is all

  • Time Machine says:

    Cyrus, Shut up you kook. No one cares about your lame ass interviews. They are fucking terrible.

  • Bitter Bob says:

    Damn you Lewis…..why did I click on Miss Ding-Dong Daizes interview? I guess to feel good about my half literate self, and I suuuuuure do. I wish I had the ability to formulate intellect as thought out as this….
    “I mean, aren’t all Republicans not for the environment? Isn’t that, like, a normal thing? Aren’t, like, Democrats for pro-choice and aren’t Republicans against environmental things and more for oil, money and power? And I don’t agree with that. To be honest, I’ve never been a voter until this year. We’re, like, surfers. I just want to surf and play my guitar and hang out with my friends. I know that sounds really selfish, and this year I’ve become a lot more aware of our situation.”
    WOW

  • Daize's Dealer says:

    @ A.I.’s Dealer
    Frieda Zamba kills it. I would keep your claims to surfing better than Daize.

    Also, Daize’s claims about God may be like A.I.s’ Dealer’s claims about his surfing: a little off. Still, that does not mean we should bash God or A.I.s’ Dealer’s surfing.

    @ Lazer
    Alana is out. She’s butter. You were on the right track though.

  • Black's Slacks says:

    This one time, on a minus tide southwest at South Peak, I took off deep and got burned by Daize and some hot midget chick tandeming on a 9′10″ super egg. Couldn’t believe they made the drop.

    Then, I got super crushed inside the set. Have you ever been crushed inside the set? Man, it’s like, well, you just don’t know what to do. But at some point I bounced off a leopard shark, scraped my ass, and then found Jesus Christ, who showed the me the golden light of theo-economics.

    Life is good, man, life is good.

  • Robert Dobbs says:

    Daize’s right.

  • Whitesnake says:

    I can’t get that catchy tune, “Show Me the Way Out” from Daize’s website out of my head. I can totally picture Daize’s correography: 1, 2, guitar dip, kick! Repeat.

    By the way, you can let Daize’s PR person know what you think of her via email at: gaye@mantrapublicrelations.com

    I think she’s super duper!

  • Whitesnake says:

    Here I go again on my own! Ggghh a Duhh Daahh! (Guitar Kick) Goin down the only road I’ve ever known! Ahh, Gahhh a Duhh Dahh! (Guitar Kick) Like a drifter I was born to walk alone! Dahh, dahaa dahh dahh. (No Guitar Kick)

    I’ve made up my mind. I ain’t wastin’ no more time. So here I go again. (No Guitar Kick)

    I am only going to answer this question once. No, I did not play Carrie Bradshaw on Sex in the City. Now piss off and leave me alone.

    Good for the girls! Has anyone else noticed that Sofia has huge knockers but always keeps them concealed? Just sayin’.

  • Mark says:

    I can’t wait for Brazil.

  • Chaz Bono says:

    Some of these babes look fricking Smokin!

  • trauzersnake says:

    the only thing i really have against daizy is she once went out with that dick joel tudor. Guy burned me at bird one time on his longboard, just because he was “joel tudor”….fucking cock.

    I’ve never heard daizy’s music, but I’ll bet it’s better than tim curran’s.

    @smyrna…most of the chicks that i jacked off to in photo two probably surf better than you, and would kick your ass too.

  • Mark says:

    @ trauzersnake

    Back off Smyrna dude! All he he did was repeat what Dave Parmenter said in an interview back in the 80’s.

    Don’t you know any surfing history? Or are you only capable of rambling on and on about your pathetic little limp noodle?

    And just to let you know I hear Smyrna not only rips Ponce but he also charges Hatteras on big gnarly days. F you Snake! Grab your little tallywacker and head over to the comments section of InSurfNews or Transworld.
    Barney.

  • SmyrnaJeff says:

    Fuck you trauzersnake!!!

    You got a problem with me? I will meet you down at Ponce ANYTIME pal! And i have NEVER lost a fight with a chick.

  • Bird Rock Bandits says:

    We will burn you too trauzersnake. Don’t come back!

  • Robert Dobbs says:

    @Aaron Shims,

    I thought it was Sophia’s donger and bollocks she kept concealed.

  • trauzersnake says:

    @Mark-Fuck dave parmenter…it’s the new millenium, like it or not, and as you can probably relate to-”god willing, i’m still here”

    @NSJ-fuck you, i hope a sandshard bites your tiny tip off

    @ BR bandits, i’ll be back, and BTW say hi to your buddy seth for me, i’ll send him some lube @ x-mas, if G. bailey will that sort of thing in.

  • trauzersnake says:

    @NSJ-that was supposed to be sand shark, or maybe even a pussy nurse shark

  • trauzersnake says:

    @mark

    that’s i’m still here and my member is still veiny, thick, and hard. but I don’t have to tell YOU that.

  • trauzersnake says:

    I must admit my giant meatwhistle probably pales in comparison to what SC is experiencing @ G. Bailey.

  • SmyrnaJeff says:

    I had a dream once that I had a threesome with Frieda Zamba and Lisa Anderson. I told Mark about it and he said he dreamed the same thing except it was with Kim Mearig and Pam Burridge.

  • trauzersnake says:

    @ smyrna

    mark probably clutched his bible and said 250 our father’s as he suppressed his little chub, squeezing his thighs with all his might in his tight levis

  • What’s cuter than baby kittens? Well, since you asked.

    How about:

    A Quadruple amputee Spiderwoman sex-slave gimp ninja with katana legs. (Hoe! Lee!! Shitake mushrooms!!!!)

    Then, this super-sexy lady Samurai cop with a naginata appears out of nowhere to fight a prostitute in a sexy school uniform that’s been transformed into a mutant killing machine with a giant box-cutter arm and acid spewing nipples… in one of the most engaging and superfluous battle-to-the-death sequences ever dreamed.

    Ah, the Japanese… they can’t pronounce “subtlety” so why worry about it?

    Big wet kiss!

    So, ummm yeah… that, would be cuter than a baby kitten.

    But, that’s just me.

    I’d fuck her!

  • Mike says:

    Blanchard has the gap…read a newspaper through it.

    Malia Jones is an ice cream cone, lick, lick, lick.

    Daize Shayne is a vapid moron… “but you’re playing the Republican National Convention?” ” Oh yeah, that”. A nation of morons voted against their own best interest because Bush “believes” the same fairy tale they do…oooppps, I mean prays. Thank you Christians for foreign murder, environmental disaster, financial meltdown, and the elimination of formerly “inalienable” rights. Sounds like a platform Jesus would approve of.

    “Oh God, please let all the shit hit the fan after my term”. GW’s rosary.

    Malia Jones is a popsickle, suck, suck, slurp, suck, suck, slurp.

  • Mike says:

    Sorry Mark, did I forget Torture, outing CIA operatives, domestic wiretapping, manipulating intelligence to support policy goals, the end of Habeus Corpus, funneling taxpayer money through private contracts to non bid business’ on elective wars, legalizing discrimination ( prop 8),…..

    I could go on but typing cramp….

  • jiggy jig says:

    Girls do fine when it comes to housework, raising children, doing office work,
    doing the twist and riding the small surf at Malibu. More and more girls are
    surfing, and I’m glad to see it. There’s nothing more beautiful than a well-
    shaped girl riding a six-foot wave with the wind blowing through her hair. But
    one thing I can’t stand is girls riding (or attempting to ride) big waves. Why?
    Well, you see, girls are much more emotional than men and therefore have a
    greater tendency to panic. And panic can be extremely dangerous in big surf.
    Girls are weaker than men and have a lesser chance for survival in giant wipeouts.
    Girls are better off and look more feminine riding average size waves.
    —Pioneer big-wave rider Buzzy Trent1

    Daize is spot on to stand up for what she believes in. Takes a bit more sack than trashing people anonymously on a surf blog.

    I could go on for hours about how she was really a pretty cool girl (before she changed her name to Daize at least) but it would be a waste of time

    Besides, I have to go have a tug to my favorite soft porn photo of Allissa Scharztein getting her pussy licked by a beagle.

    Praise Jesus, or whoever the fuck invented peanut butter.

  • JD says:

    I’d fuck them all…. right in the mouth …. AAAAAARRRRRR

  • Shreddy Roosevelt says:

    Professional surfers need to stop parlaying their surf careers into music careers. It ends up embarrassing everyone — surfers and musicians. It would be like allowing Matthew McConaughey to surf in ‘QS. Why didn’t the Maverick’s tour just get some decent bands instead? Some people just can’t get off the stage.

  • Super, thanks for posting!

  • I love the fairy tail anime I cant wait for more episodes !!
