The Bexon Bureau
- Issue 4
G'day people of the interwebs, and welcome to Issue 4 of the Bexon Bureau, where among other things, we're makin' movies, throwin' parties, and celebratin' b'days.
Feb 22
Kang's Retreat has started to do the rounds. Our next premiere is at the THOMAS FACTORY - SATURDAY MARCH 9 - as part of our big annual party/smash up. Make sure and wear a seat belt.
A couple of weeks ago we visited Canggu for the first premiere, at Black Sand Brewery, and it was packed. The beers flowed fast, Dustin Dollin tried to pash Thomas, and all in all, people got a good little kick out of the film. Big ups to the Thomas Bali team, Black Sand and all who showed up.
Following that, Hunter, Husni and Harrison flew to West Java to prem the vid at House of Sawah, in Husni and Deni's hometown.
And while they were there, they hooked 12 yr old Alvin Setiawan up with a new 9'2" Malibu, in Tosh Tudor colours - "MODE ON" - as Alvin says.
We're excited to offer some fun Kang's Retreat merch in celebration the vid. Our staff have already taken half of what we produced, so gettum while they're available. The T's, in classic merch form, were made with Gildan ultra cotton blanks, and screened next door to our surfboard factory. They're a boxy fit. Shit yeah.
Tosh Tudor's surfing really stands out in Kang's Retreat - the young fella spends most of his time chasing big barrels these days, but it doesn't seem to have affected his skill on a log - it was like the 9'6" Harrison was an extension of his limbs. Photographs by Giang and Hunter.
"What they're riding" is back for a dive into Husni's quiver - we decided we better get in before his busy Indonesian daytime TV schedule kicks off after the break-out acting role in Kang's. Take a squiz at the 4:25min vid on the Thomas Surfboards Youtube channel. His current favourite sled is a 9'4" Malibu.
And finally, this past weekend we celebrated our Bali store's first birthday. Selamat ulang tahun to us! The Bali fam made their way from the store in Pererenan to a lovely little left-hander out west and spent a couple of days surfing, eating and chilling dafuq out. Looks like they had a ball.
