2014 Swellies Awards Mid-Season Nominations and Early Frontrunners

I'm actually just trying to make a late run at silver medal for HOTY. Its not really my bag, though. Carry on.

 

Me and kidrock are tight yo! git yo fights right yo! (guess im as good at rapping as lil wayne)

IN that regards, I nominate kidrock and zaGaff for most righteous dudes of the year for actually offering me places to stay on my epic westcoast surf pilgrimage, despite it not logistically working out can't argue with internet hospitality like that!

 

Thread of the year: meeting to fight in real life 2. Classic stuff going on there right as we speak boys, the video of the three russian old men clinched it for me. Not to mention it was based off an actual attempt to get someone from swellinfo to meet and fight in real life which I think has already secured itself in the swellinfo history books of being one of the most retarded and hilarious requests I have witnessed.

 

"PLEASE ACCEPT MY RESIGNATION. I DON'T WANT TO BELONG TO ANY CLUB THAT WILL ACCEPT PEOPLE LIKE ME AS A MEMBER".

Work sucks, clean swell tomorrow. Here are my nomonees:

Member OTY - two way tie - sandblaster from the dirty souff, EMassSpicoli from da north.

Rookie OTY - Metard technically, but he's been here for it seems forever. Uncle Two Bits and Barry Cuda have mad a big splash

Kook OTY - prolly me for filling this **** out

Grom OTY - HighOnLife (he's prolly 60 years old)

Bromance OTY - Roy and himself

Post OTY - to be named later

Tread OTY - The whole HO thing that took over multiple treads and got some mookies pissed off

Fight OTY - Roy v. the entire world

Hater OTY - Rcarter...congrats ...you have taken it to a new level. Yankee has been elevated to Minister Of Hate, and has veto power on all future Hater awards.

Wahine OTY - Betty of Port Fierce, hands down

Conspiracy OTY - who is Simod 666?

Member Achievement OTY - Roy for maiking the BLEF line of fins on a 3D printer. They work good and look like cool bread knives.

Swell OTY - down here it was the Hurricane Gonzaves swell In Centro FL, lit u the coast between Oct 17 and 20 with clean overhead, fun juicy barrells, I got a double barrell on one wave that my buddy saw so he knows I'm not making this shi* up.

Honorable mentions: bubonicphoniks, Doug, MakeItStop, baddytrailerpark, IBC - you guys are funny as hell and have great insight into the human condition, in and out of the water.

also, LBCrew, World B. Free, tlokien, DawnPatrolSUP, Brewerengineer, zeroevol, fl.surfdogg, manisses, and seldom seen - you are the sages of this forum (like it or not), and without your mature and reasoned posts (everything is relative), this would devolve into a giant pi$$ing match. God Bless all ya'll!

 

Post OTY - trevolution - The PacHwy 1 travel tread was very cool for those of us who no longer can unplug and do the surftripppy lifestyle thing. The posts and the pics put me in the lineup. Keep doing it as long as you can brother!

 

Kook OTY - prolly me for filling this **** out

LOL well said.
(how i felt put into words perfectly)


And thanks for the kind words bro.

 

thanks man! doing the same thing with central america next week and the carribean after that. be in central for 3 months, so it will be a cumulative post not an ongoing thing due to lack of internet.

 

lol walked right into that one...
I want to nominate the chronic bubonics for
BPI-OTY Best Photo Icon.
I really want to believe you look exactly like that.
and eat giant ass burgers like that too.
like, more than I ever wanted to believe in santa. or jesus.

sheeeittt then RCARTER just re-upped on his icon dough!!! close second.

 

I like these choice man! Yankee does kind of transcend awards for hate as it seems to flow from him as natural energy left over from the Big Bang that created him.

 

See, everybody loves my nuts!

 

Hahaha minister of hate! Nice ballz carter!

 

rcarter should be appointed Ambassador to the outside world. Ribbon cutting at skate parks and such. He's got the right balance of experience and diplomacy.

Love the new aviator. Reminded me of...

After consideration, my nominations are here.


Member OTY - Seldom Seen, everyone loves that dog so I gotta go with him for MOTY

Rookie OTY - Everyone that joined in the year of 2014, but really its metard.

Kook OTY - Definitely shortboarder. Shark Hunter is gone so really we need not mention him anymore.

Grom OTY - HighOnLife, (and everyone else under the age of 17 on this site) really nobody else besides me and him have come out as grom that I can think of.

Media OTY - Gonna have to go with Cloudbreak from above.. pretty sure it was this one:

Bromance OTY - Mason Ho /<3\ All of SI

Post OTY - probably something by metard.

Thread OTY - "some surf pics" By metard. Plenty of great surf pics in there.

Fight OTY - Yankee vs anyone he hated on

Hater OTY - Yankee. Hands down. No competition.

Wahine OTY - Betty, even if there were 300 wahines on this site besides 3, you'd probably still win.

Conspiracy OTY - 540, or 720?

Swell OTY - Gonzalo.

 

Pretty wack that the biggest kook is fronting this silly as fuk award show . Maybe I'm just to busy to deal with writing or maybe just outside doing more than writing "douche canoe " over and over . So long gay boys

 

Well I'm coming full circle on this OTY thing.... Let me give the old horse a kick.

NYNJ has the be nominated for Funniest Member Of the Year. I'm not sure a thread has gone by where he hasn't posted something that makes me chuckle out loud. And there is just something about that avatar of the kid in the helmet smoking a cigar with "Incoming" that is just.... so....perfect.

ChopHop of the year - MegatroidSkittle in 1.5 foot Fl mush. Too bad he turned out to be a canoe.

Friendliest/Coolest Member of the Year - Ryan. Have to love those vids.

Best Spam of the Year =- Tie: HoStevie's mouth piece and bandits about in a rival Nicaragua surf camp.

Who had the best year on the forum: Roy. he sold a million dollar surfboard, which is still mindblowing. I mean, there are fantastic Picassos that sell for less than that. You can buy 7 or so Ferraris, beach houses.... oh never mind.

Rookie of the year: Metard. By a landslide. Guy brings a lot.

Old man of the year. Gaf. And he's probably not old. But he's the old man on the forum. When the forum derails, he brings it back to what we all love - waves and riding them.

Grom of the year - HOL. Kid is posting on the forum from the back of a high school classroom.

To be continued I have a WebEx starting in 5 minutes.

 

Vote change

Thread OTY goes to Speed Bump... Sick story, sick thread, I still read it from time to time.

http://www.swellinfo.com/forum/showthread.php?23079-Surfing-Where-there-are-no-Surfers&highlight=

Scroll down a little, grab some hot cocoa and enjoy probably the best read on SI.

 

Don't pass up Dominical in CR. It's a hippie artsy enclave in the jungle with lots of good waves, and lots of friendly wahines (not hookers - go to Jaco for them, but I deplore such degeneracy). Pavones is a few hours south, but if its on, it is one of the longest and most fun lefts in the world. Looking forward to more of your posts, and be safe, and watch out for those brown recluse spiders down south.
