Internet, why won’t you let me live stream this dog surfing competition?!

The dogs have gathered. The surf is up. The puppy-sized rash guards are on. And the Dog Surfing Championship of 2018 is underway in Pacifica, California.
But something is amiss. All I want to do is sit back and watch the glory of canines riding sweet waves from my Brooklyn apartment, 3,000 miles away from the Good Boys on boards. Alas, the internet has failed me.
Internet, it’s 2018 — why the HECK is there no live stream of the World Dog Surfing Championships?!
A scroll through the very official website’s event page brings up no links to watch. I guess I will have to settle for these images and videos on Twitter. Read more…

Is Tesla taking merch too far?
Elon Musk has a knack for selling weird branded merchandise that has nothing to do with what his companies actually do — remember The Boring Company’s flamethrowers? Or the $400 leather jackets made from the same automotive grade leather that adorns Tesla interiors?
Tesla added surfboards to its gift shop on Saturday. The surfboards, which were briefly available for the perfectly reasonable price of $1,500, is a collaboration between Tesla Design Studio and Lost Surfboards.
In case you’ve ever wished you could surf a Tesla, the boards feature a “mix of the same high-quality matte and gloss finished used on all our cars.” Read more…

Two surfers, same waves. But people aren’t cool with the difference in pay.

Over the weekend, surfers competed in the Ballito Pro, which takes place in South Africa’s east.
In the Billabong Junior Series, the under-18 mens winner was Indonesia’s Rio Waida, while the womens competition was won by South Africa’s Zoe Steyn.
While the news would invite congratulations, a Facebook post showing the two winners has angered people.
As the photo shows, Waida received 8,000 SAR ($577), while Steyn — who was standing right beside him — received exactly half of that. It’s… not a good look.
“Did the girls surf a different ocean that was easier we don’t know about? This is pathetic,” reads one comment. Read more…
