This holiday season, I checked in with Roxy Team Rider Chelsea Tuach at her beautiful hometown on the island of Barbados.

Chelsea is dominating not only the Caribbean, but this last year she finished 9^th at the World Games in Peru. I found out why, after surfing with her and watching her shred this Christmas.

Chelsea took me around the island and taught me a few tricks of the trade I believe I need to share…

Winter is here; ski hills are opening, flakes are falling, and the Roxy snow team is gearing up for a new season of adventures.  But before jumping full-on into winter travels, Torah Bright, Erin Comstock and Robin Van Gyn took the time to stop in at the Seattle, WA offices of Mervin Manufacturing (where Roxy snowboards are designed) to check out the future snowboard line at the annual Roxy, Gnu, and Lib Tech snowboard summit.  Each of the team riders discussed their brand new snowboards and how they are each involved in the design and construction of the snowboards – pretty cool huh! While at the office they were kind enough to stop by the photo copier and create something for the Roxy/Mervin crew to remember them by!

After hanging out at the office and stirring up a little bit of trouble the  team headed back to the mountains– to their real “day jobs”– where office chairs are chairlifts, board meetings are park laps with friends, and time cards are season’s passes.

This past weekend, Roxy and Neutrogena teamed up to host a surf camp at Sunset Beach in Malibu, California to bring awareness to skin health.  Neutrogena’s “Choose Skin Health” campaign resonated with the Roxy brand and we thought it was important to get the word out.  Roxy and Neutrogena invited LA-based media and influencers and kicked off the weekend on Friday evening with a dinner at one of the hottest places to go in Malibu, Gladstone’s.  After enjoying a 3 course meal of delicious appetizers, entrees and dessert in the Sunset Room, guests enjoyed an intimate, live performance by Costa Rican singer/songwriter Debi Nova.  We, of course, stayed around after for the party that Gladstone’s throws on Friday nights!

Saturday morning, after a hearty breakfast provided by Gladstone’s, guests took to the waves with Roxy team riders Jen Smith and Amy Murphree.  In addition to learning how to surf and seeing Roxy’s summer collection, guests were treated to a lesson on summer skin health and products courtesy of Neutrogena.  Editors and journalists from LA Confidential, Thrillist, People Magazine, Fuel TV, Foam, KIIS FM, PopSugar.com, Surfer and other outlets were on hand to catch all of the action and participate in this amazing event.
