Surf Expo Hijinx

the booth

Every now and then we would hear from our shops out east talk about this Surf Expo show, so we decided to head out there all the way from Cali to check it out!!! Here are some pics from the 3 days we spent there!!!

We got there the day before the show with just two people, and 5 boxes of product to build a 10 x 10 booth. We got the Baker and Heroin product up with the quickness.
