What a joke. Every year the same brands and the same bros get celebrated for the same boring stuff. Sima surf summit is the bane of this industry.

You got to love a industry where they give HSS womens retailer of the year after they close down there womens store and sell off there retail space to Billabong and Nike (oops I mean Hurley! ).

HSS should of had Bob Hurley and Paul Nade accept that award for giving Aaron Pai all the money to keep HSS open. I'm sure all the long time employees who help get them there and then were layed off are so stoked!
