'GOOFY AS' - A collection of work by Paul McNeil

After an action packed day of fun in the sun down at the Pererenan river-mouth we all managed to get a quick nap and shower in before heading back to the Temple of Enthusiasm for the much anticipated curtain drop on “GOOFY AS” a collection of works by friend, legend and artist Paul McNeil in the Deus Gallery. The crowd filled into the gallery as the drinks flowed and from wall to wall gazes were shared upon the colourful and tongue in cheek works Paul had conjured up.

Music from the DJ kept everyone on their feet and into the night, sending them home with a smile, ready for an early start at the beach tomorrow for the finals of the 9ft & single longboard event as well as the 9ft & Under showdown. The swell looks like its getting bigger with each set and should prove to be quite an interesting setting for the mornings events. If you are in the area come check it out!

On the edge of Harajuku, a bold new sign has risen - The Residence of Impermanence - in Harajuku, Tokyo, is back. Art, surfboards, motorcycles, apparel, café, music - a place where all kinds of enthusiasms collide. Step inside to the Deus Café - a breezy open ceiling space, serving all-day breakfast and the perfect energy for every moment. We're not ones to argue with that. Climb the spiral staircase to surfboards quietly lined against a softly lit backdrop.

Shaped exclusively for the Residence by Takuya “Tappy” Yoshikawa, Tetsuya Ogawa, and Jared Mell, each board is one of a kind. Sofas once beloved at the former Harajuku store — crafted by TRUCK Furniture and Stephen Kenn — have been reupholstered and brought to life for their next chapter. They’ll take on new character with time — just like this place. We invite you to settle in and enjoy the flow.

Same name. New form. The spirit remains, just slightly rearranged. Come in, stay awhile. Find us at 2-32-5 Jingumae, Shibuya-Ku, BPR Square Jingumae 1-1F & 2F Tokyo.

In Benzin Veritas!
