Ultimate Guide to Corporate Surf Culture | A few rich, white dudes own everything!

It’s no secret that the surf industry is not what it advertises itself as. The Brothers Marshall wanted to pull the towel off the whole culture and they did in a one off BACKDOOR zine where they detailed the few people who own near everything.

Brother Trace expands,

 “Us dumb surfer types to understand the wonderful world of surf culture. This thing we hold so dear is really just controlled by a handful of rich white dudes. It’s pretty funny that most of the surf companies that are such rivals are actually owned by the same corporation. Is that bad? Is that good? I don’t know but we think its funny.”
