Ok, so you’re packed and heading to your favorite spot. You’ve got boards, wetsuits, some wax and loads of beer. But what about fun on the beach at night? Have you prepared for that too?

No worries, Extreemblog prepared the Top 10 Surfing Gear You Must Have On The Shore. Shall we start?

10. Hot Surfing Boardshorts ($28-∞)

That’s the essential part of the surfing subculture. No boardshorts, no surfie. Pick the most colorful one, and show you have cash: Billabong, Quicksilver, Rip Curl… This one on the left looks great.

9.  Extremely Water Resistant Aussie Suncream ($25/two pack)

Make sure you have the best sun and UV protection when surfing. Simply grab a nice Suncream with “Australia” label on it – now everyone will respect you.

8. Colored Waterproof Sunblock ($6)

Zinka has rolled out a new line of sunscreen products in bright colors. Now applying it on face, nose, ears, etc. is going to be an art. But please, use it wisely and don’t look like a surfing Geisha.

7. USB Green SurfDrive ($20/4GB)

Accidentally, while you were surfing you got awesome waves, and luckily there was a professional photographer on the beach taking the photos of your unbelievable tricks (even though you were actually just scared, fighting to survive). Or you met a nice girl and wanted to save the photo as a proof for friends.

Anyway, what you need is a USB flash dive with original design.

6. Surfing Monopoly ($35)

When weather sucks, play the best-ever variation of Monopoly. Rule the most formidable surf spots in the world including Pipeline, Restaurants, Todos Santos and Maverick’s.  Plus stunning photography of the world’s best breaks.

And you can pick up girls saying that it benefits the Surfrider Foundation, dedicated to preserving our oceans and waterways.

5. A Surf Watch ($10)

“The stretchy colorful 100% latex rubber band hugs to the contours of your wrist and ensures that it won’t fall off even in the most demanding sports. The Surf Watch is extremely comfortable and lightweight so you will hardly notice you are wearing it.”

Black, whit and red available.

4. HangGoose Wetsuit Hanger ($39)

Easy hanging is critical to good wetsuit care. With that piece, you will hang anywhere: shower heads, car racks, tree branches, door trim, rain gutters, rafters… ok, for some almost anywhere. ; )

3. Waterproof First Aid Kit ($15)

“The heavy-duty nylon bag is specially coated and has a waterproof zipper to ensure that your first aid supplies stay dry. Doctor-selected contents for a day trip on the water.”

In short, it means the kit is good for surfing.

2. Surfsling Board Carrier ($30)

Hands-free surfboard carrier, a towel and a bag in one. Useful, when you have no car, or just a bike.

1. True Surfer Condoms ($1,36/6 pack!)

Surfrider Foundation just released new collection of recycled surfer condoms. Try it if you are such a hardcore you claimed to be. And it’s only $1,36/6 pack! (via 5Ones.com)

Have fun!

Do you know what actually happened between Columbus’s discovery of America in 14920 and the Pilgrims’ immigration in 1620 on that very continent?

Neither did me or the author, Tony Horwitz, when paying a visit to famous Plymouth Rock. He realized he didn’t have any clue just as any other average American.

So he set off across the continent to rediscover the wild era of Europeans roaming the New World in search for gold, glory, youth, peace and… of course Adventures!

Horwitz tells the story of many brave, yet crazied explorers while retracing their steps on the treck.

The 464-page book will transport you from conquistadors’ sunny Florida to an Indian lodge in subarctic Canada in moments.
First chapter will help you bring back the early history of America, even if you’re from the different part of the globe… or not.  : )

“Wonderfully written, and heroically researched…Horwitz unearths whole chapters of American history that have been ignored.”–The Boston Globe

A Voyage Long and Strange: On the Trail of Vikings, Conquistadors, Lost Colonists, and Other Adventurers in Early America now in bookstores for just $12.
