I love working on Beachdude and have thousands and thousands (for reals) ideas and pictures for upcoming projects and products, including shirts, shorts, hats, jackets, socks, cookies, short-subject movies and reels, cartoons, tiki mugs, stickers, slacks, music (yep), etc. etc. etc. Been working on it for about 20 years, including the NCAA athletics projects. THAT SAID, even having established contacts in film industry along with all the others, I haven't yet found that MONEY PERSON (right?) to step up, become involved and help me bring it all FULLY to life. I'd definitely hate to walk away from it. Anybody out there?

Related/Unrelated: While not part of the Tiki family (nor BDI Spade), this is one of the new stickers we have up at the USC Bookstore (new 8/25) and from what I understand, it's already on the wall there.
BEACHDUDE, INC. retains several graphic arts pieces and still enjoys good design for good design's sake.

HOLD ON BDI crew - I need to get this listed on the webpage! We just made Red, White and Blue chenille leis, which will remain available from Beachdude since we have our (American) 250th Celebration next year.
THE MODEL is our favorite beach beauty - our own stunning Hannah Tobin; truly a natural-born model (not to mention her awe-inspiring hair)

One of my favorite "USC Flashback" shots of Tiki Santa at USC - the time I was working the bookstore during a home game, when this couple approached me and said this was the only shirt they've worn at Christmas for the past 3 years. LOVIN THAT!

STILL HOPING to get into FULL PRODUCTION with "Tiki Toys"! Just need one solid (solid = MANY) order to finally step over the line, ya know.
MEANWHILE, our ever-so-photogenic Hannah and Charlie brah are shown here with the plush Tiki Santa toys at 10th Street Beach (Newport) just days before Christmas. GOOD WORK TEAM! USC Alumni Club of The L.A. Beach Cities

Annenburg Grad Student (and USC swimmer) Anthony Fitzgerald suits up in our new, long-awaited COWBOY HAT!
FIRST to admit we're waaaaaaaaaaay behind in posting, but that said, GET READY (USC Trojans) for a COWBOY hat and sticker to match (of course). In process, but definitely cookin' 'em up !!

SOME days, you just remember where you came from and and keep pushing forward in hopes it'll all add up soon

Our man Ryan Germann sent this pic yesterday showing himself in our Sharktopus sea battle tee. In this case, man makes the shirt. He's a tough guy to beat, especially in the 800 mtr!

Stopped by home base yesterday afternoon (10th Street beach in Newport Beach) and was pleased to find our scout was still on duty, as predicted. Gotta love a pleasant February day in Southern California!
