Right now a thumb-sized USB drive is crossing the globe.

The humble device began its journey in Ventura, jammed in Dane Reynolds’ laptop, where it was loaded up with handful of gigabytes. 

That file was called The_Electric_Acid_Surfboard_Test.mp4, Stab’s experimental foam project with Vans and Corona. 

Huntington Beach had first dibs on viewing its contents, then New York, now it’s bound for Byron Bay.

We’ve already given enough away from our time in Mexico with Dane and ten hand-shaped so-called “alternative” surfboard designs, all you need to know is that the next premiere will be at the Beach Hotel, Byron Bay, next Thursday the 30th of August at 8:00pm sharp.

Arrive early to mingle, stay late to sway – you won’t want to miss it.

Here’s the Facebook event.

The Electric Acid Surfboard Test will be streaming online in early October, available for purchase on iTunes a month earlier. Stay tuned for updates.
