We had fun surfs in the day and campfires at night in yard of the old pink house I’ve called home for past 7 years. Ryan was looking to get some footage of Ryan Burch. While Trevor and I edited a video for Korduroy about a recent surf trip he and his buds took.</p> <p><br/>Ryan grew up in Seattle and found shaping in his late teens. I could relate to his struggles as an outsider who’s trying to transform his passion into a successful career. Ryan’s dedication has always impressed me so I asked him some questions to learn more about his aspirations and goals.</p> <p><br/>Here’s a link to Ryan’s film <a href="http://vimeo.com/64010813" target="_blank">trailer</a>.</p> <p>And check out “Fun and Dusted” starring Trevor on <a href="http://www.korduroy.tv" target="_blank">Korduroy</a>.</p>http://regressingforward.com/post/50591772345http://regressingforward.com/post/50591772345Thu, 16 May 2013 12:01:00 -0700ryan lovelace<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/755d3f42caf3093a7c69922b059bb64b/tumblr_mlvkz2UBi61r21h9jo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>surf bum tailgate</p>http://regressingforward.com/post/50511076790http://regressingforward.com/post/50511076790Wed, 15 May 2013 12:01:12 -0700ryan lovelaceminimal<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/3b9529fd4c21a8fc1d90060a73249eac/tumblr_mlvjpmCmWZ1r21h9jo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Sleds of Ryan Lovelace (l to r)</p> <div>5’10 Piggyback, high performance twin for Trevor Gordon.</div> <div>5’?????

Check<br/><br/>Cooler? Check<br/><br/>Hiking Shoes? Check<br/><br/>Laptop? Check<br/><br/>Wallet? Check<br/><br/>I talk to myself. It’s residual condition from growing up an only child.</p> <p>I closed the last wooden storage compartment in the floor of my camper. For some reason I always get anxious when packing, I guess I’m fearful that I’ll forget something. Ironically, I’ve never left anything that I haven’t been thankful to leave behind. The accouterments of “civilized” living weigh us down and deprive us of the gifts bestowed by freedom. I am addicted to comfort and I travel as a means of breaking that addiction. </p> <p>To me, the word “adventure” means “thinking on your feet.” By creatively solving physical problems I gain more resiliency to fight the fear and static. The goal is simple… but packing isn’t. Packing sucks. <br/><br/>Walking around to the side door, I admire my new mobile digs. The new imitation oak floor nestled beneath the pine trim makes it feel like a proper home. I grab the hanging broom from its hook and sweep the dirt I tracked in while packing. Ready to go. </p> <p><img src="http://media.tumblr.com/ebdb77c37f453e2458f3c75ebfb09425/tumblr_inline_mluryioYsB1qz4rgp.jpg"/></p> <p><img src="http://media.tumblr.com/dfed4d89294f49f63c1e19d81bf24d5e/tumblr_inline_mlus4l9d0K1qz4rgp.jpg"/></p>http://regressingforward.com/post/49948549067http://regressingforward.com/post/49948549067Wed, 08 May 2013 12:01:33 -0700regressing forwardcyrus sutton<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/5e78236f76fdfca899b5005cd3954ac5/tumblr_mlvmt06Idq1r21h9jo1_500.png"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/126c6f55f6ef94095e3187954682b022/tumblr_mlvmt06Idq1r21h9jo2_500.png"/><br/> <br/><p><a href="http://www.almondsurfboards.com/" target="_blank">Dave Allee</a> The man, The myth, The Surfboard</p>http://regressingforward.com/post/49869716261http://regressingforward.com/post/49869716261Tue, 07 May 2013 12:01:07 -0700regressing fowardalmond surfboards<iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/54653754" width="400" height="225" frameborder="0"></iframe><br/><br/><p>One wave at Malibu</p>http://regressingforward.com/post/49789634024http://regressingforward.com/post/49789634024Mon, 06 May 2013 12:01:08 -0700<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/7a3fc48eca341cc1fddb4a690d4f9a93/tumblr_mlvmj0suOt1r21h9jo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Clutch assessing another fine glass job</p>http://regressingforward.com/post/49707132878http://regressingforward.com/post/49707132878Sun, 05 May 2013 12:01:27 -0700regressing fowardalmond surfboardsminimal<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/87cdce4217f3bba56d06c3fd3719b5e6/tumblr_mlvme3kStu1r21h9jo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>future Almond Surfboards</p>http://regressingforward.com/post/49613264582http://regressingforward.com/post/49613264582Sat, 04 May 2013 12:01:56 -0700almond surfboardsminimal<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/df5b42ea23680700d3c71a0851968015/tumblr_mlumks7WeM1r21h9jo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Rob “The Chinaman” with his Chinook and Co-Pilot</p>http://regressingforward.com/post/49600337711http://regressingforward.com/post/49600337711Sat, 04 May 2013 09:03:48 -0700chinookminimal<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/53d54dd384278d04799e3144f800142a/tumblr_mluo1rkeUo1r21h9jo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Noseride Selfie</p>http://regressingforward.com/post/49527695989http://regressingforward.com/post/49527695989Fri, 03 May 2013 12:01:23 -0700xl<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/05df6cd91451cb6659febf6540b6cb18/tumblr_mluo60KsZY1r21h9jo1_500.png"/><br/><br/>http://regressingforward.com/post/49451427723http://regressingforward.com/post/49451427723Thu, 02 May 2013 12:01:14 -0700minimal<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/6aad99c0b565655ee24277df4bd1c59e/tumblr_mlunq90WTz1r21h9jo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Unpimped Rides</p>http://regressingforward.com/post/49374898844http://regressingforward.com/post/49374898844Wed, 01 May 2013 12:01:21 -0700minimal
