The Freestyle Blog

Welcome to the Official Blog for Freestyle and Shark Watches.
Featuring mind benders, funny sh*t, amazing rides, crazy people, behind the scenes shenanigans and anything and everything that keeps the Freestyle office a buzz. We may not play the same sport or have the same passions, we may not have the same gender, religion or faith, we may not live in the same country, city, or state, but we all spend our days breathing, bleeding and sweating the same way. At the end of the day it's all about performance and together we are Freestyle, we are performance timing, and this is our blog.

Humanity Snowboards 2K10

Thursday, February 25th, 2010


Humanity Snowboards 2K10 from Davis Paul on Vimeo.

A few of the guys that ride for Freestyle also ride for Humanity Snowboards. Peep this edit from them; it’s cool to see a new snowboard company pop up that keeps it real. The boards are coming rad too; their graphics are the bomb. Yet another groovy edit from the man with two first names, Davis Paul! Hmm, what does he have in store for the Freestyle Movie, Tick Tock?

The Mother of all Rail Slides

Tuesday, February 23rd, 2010



Shoots, who said rollerblading was dead? We came across this video on one of our favorite blogs, The Station. Had to poach it and show it to you all! Can anybody send us a more radical/gnarly/long rail slide than this? We don’t care what you’re riding, fricken straddle the thing if thats your style! Wipeouts count too!

Our favorite issue of Surfing Magazine just showed up. The 2010 Swimsuit Issue! Don’t get over excited, we aren’t going to spill all the beans here, you’re going to have to pick up a copy for yourself to peep out all the babes. You’re for sure going to want to check out the smoking babe on page 38 rocking the Hammerhead Chrono XL, and yes she’s literally smoking. So as much as we like bikini models, we like bikini surfers even better. After all, Freestyle is all about performance, so here’s a video courtesy of our friends at O’Neill of real surfer babe Sage Erickson shredding the waves!
Babes and Waves, Babes and Waves!
