“Something big is coming,” was the ominous DM that slid into Stab’s inbox a month or so back.

It was sent from a man named Alex Corson aka APC Cool Pics, a diehard surfer and purveyor of the stoke. As @APC_Cool_Pic’s Insta bio firmly plants, “The stoke is on and it always will be.”

Alex is an 18-year-old young adult, he’s autistic and is doing his darnedest to make a difference in the arena of Autism Awareness. For the past year or so, Alex has kept us fairly up to date with his life, sending Merry Christmas messages, photos of him and his Catch Surf foamies, his SUPERbrand boards, that one time he climbed onto his roof, plus his personal photography and videography. We’ve come to very much like the man.

Who says you shouldn’t make friends on the internet?

Our boy APC and his new wax. “The stoke is on!”

So, when Alex asked me if I wanted to be a part of Blue Wonderland, before really having any idea what Blue Wonderland actually was, I told him, “I’m in.”

Alex asked me to submit a video, I did and now I, along with CJ Hobgood, Ben Gravy, Albee Layer and Justin Cote, are proud members of Blue Wonderland. You can watch below.

Turns out, Blue Wonderland is a community/movement created by Alex. In its physical form Blue Wonderland is a wax. It’s produced in collaboration with Matunas (who scored an 8/10 on our Wax Test) and Faces 4 Autism. Faces 4 Autism (a non-profit organization dedicated to the education and support of children with Autism and their families).

As APC Cool Pics told me earlier today, “The wax is selling like hotcakes, dude!”
