Tripping Through Japan
Words and Photos by Jamie Brisick
Rocking a Fulbright Fellowship, Brisick came to Japan fully sponsored. He presented us with 13 short bios of exemplary Japanese surfers, primarily told in their own words—like Junji Icheda:
“…Get a breakfast and amino acid at 7-Eleven. After two hours surfing, competitive surfers have light meal at 7-Eleven (no-competitive surfer have a beer and sleep). Some people stay on Saturday night for Sunday surfing. Most surfers stay Minshuku or their car. Square-style Van is popular, it is called "One Box" and they convert the back cargo to bed. Some 7-Eleven in Chiba has hot shower for the surfers to sleep in their car.”All this and much more Well Beyond Standard fare…
Like surf trips to Brunei and Libya, partying mob deep in Malibu, Skindog tube views good enough for the cover, a bowling left in the French Riviera, and a Vaquero-style carnitas recipe that will blow your crew’s collective mind. What’s not to like? Consider subscribing.
