So far nothing’s topping Nate’s big wave from last year. And I think he’ll be the only one in years to come to top that wave of his! Nathan charges!!!!!!!!!! Was he a fearless big wave rider as a kid? don’t remember that much about him being so in the early years.. - Pete Coulson

Dibi: Nathan went with Herb and Christian everywhere, and he always wanted to keep up. Great training for him to become fearless.

————————————————————————————-

Hey so where are the pics of you dibi going down the street with baby nathan in diapers cruzing on a skateboard!! We know you have it, don’t hold out!

- Jim Rowe

Dibi: No, I did a lot of other things with them; like take them to the beach everyday. We had a great time, but I never had the skate expertise to want them on a board with me.

————————————————————————————-

What is the wackiest thing you have ever been witness to? - Chris Thorson

Dibi: The list is so long I can’t begin to know where to start.

On a scale of 1 to 10 how blessed are you? - Richie Surfdude

Dibi: 10 for sure!

————————————————————————————-

Do you think people should stop using the word “retard”? - Jon Sarkisian

————————————————————————————-

Sooo since Dear Abby is now gone. Dibi??? Whatcha all think? - Kye Ledbetter

Dibi: What do you think??

————————————————————————————-

Did the Hoffmans come up with the aloha print or just make it more mainstream? Am interested in the background/history of how it all started. Thank you. - Dan Simmons

Dibi: Pretty much an optimist. Although when tired - like everyone else -things look a bit grey.

————————————————————————————-

Does Christian surf Lowers anymore? man that was his place he got it locked! But dont hear to much about him surfing there anymore!! - Brian Carper

Dibi:The bottom changed so the waves are no longer the same there, so he surfs it rarely.

————————————————————————————-

Mrs. Fletcher you are SUCH an amazing artist! And Christian is so proud of you! What is your personal favorite style of art? What medium? - Nancy Bowmann

Dibi: Right now, I’m fully thrilled about architecture. I’d like to build a house that looks like a space ship and design all the furniture for it!!

————————————————————————————-

What has been the most difficult thing being the mother of a famous rebellious pioneer surfer like Christian Fletcher?!?!!!!!! - Josh Brawley

Dibi: Being a mother to anyone is an awesome responsibility, playing a lot of it out in public certainly made parts of it more difficult.

————————————————————————————-

Tell Herbie for the new WW film that there needs to be a segment with you doing your art and showing who’s boss! Lol amazing you are! - Danny Stinson

Dibi: That’s very funny!!

————————————————————————————-

Come on! What’s the stall? What happened to the Fletcher Valentine family photo?? Was SO looking forward to it!

Those pics you guys do are the funniest sh*t EVER! - Lucas Nakamura

Dibi: That’s pretty funny, we just did the holiday photos because we personally got a kick out of them and thought it was a fun way to laugh at ourselves, and then when we didn’t do one, so many people wrote in about them, that we decided we’ll try to keep it going. A sense of humor is one of life’s greatest gifts.

————————————————————————————-

LMAO! I love the humor you guys have! Now that being said, where can I order one of those amazing turtlenecks?

- Audrey S. Ellis

Dibi: That was funny. CF and Nathan get a little pissed sometimes, but what the heck, it’s all in fun.

Dibi: I wouldn’t mind doing something in the future if I had more control to tell the real stories of the wild world of surfing.

————————————————————————————-

What do you love best about: Christian, Nathan, Greyson, Herbie? - Angela Noda

Dibi: Each one has an amazing, sweet, soulful side that is so generous and loving that it’s a pleasure to be their friend and all the other roles that we play in each other’s lives.

————————————————————————————-

Do you think it’s safe to say that you guys have been on the forefront of a lot of things in the surf industry? obviously surf traction, wakeboarding, tow ins, etc? - DJ Larkin

Dibi: Yes, I think it’s an honest statement.

————————————————————————————-

When do you think it’s not the right time to push the envelope or get extreme? - Jake Theroux

Dibi: I’m not quite sure I understand the question as it can be interpreted in so many different ways. It sounds as if you’re speaking of bad behavior, which is never the best or wisest course of action.

————————————————————————————-

Fletchers are legendary !!! All you guys and DibI !!! Are da hottest = Jean Pierre Pereat

Dibi: Thank you, it’s been one hell of a ride!

“Hey Dibi, Tapatio or Tabasco?”

Wednesday, January 9th, 2013

Questions are left as written. That being said, some of you need to learn how to use Spell Check! - CF

(This was the first of many things for Dibi. The first fish she ever caught AND the first (and last) fishing trip (1979) that she ever went on. Herbie was so stoked for her that he got this amazing Marlin stuffed!)

hi Dibi. do you know anything about the 7 wonders of the world? i saw the history channel and it’s amazing! wondered what marvels of this world trip you out? - Brian Kendon

Dibi: I’ve always wanted to go to the Mayan ruins, perhaps one day I’ll make it.

———————————————————————————–

Hey Dibi, how do you like to treat yourself? - Megan Fillmore

Dibi: WOW, it’s been so long I really have to stop and think. I think a real treat would be to have a couple of days off with absolutely no responsibility.

———————————————————————————–

Who is Nathan new sponsor since Analog went bye bye? - Jimmy Duncan

Dibi: I think it was certainly a bit of a surprise for him, I believe he’s taking some time to think it over.

———————————————————————————–

Tapatio or Tabasco? - Craig Barnham

Dibi: Tapatio!

———————————————————————————–

What can we expect from Astrodeck for 2013? Stoked to see John John riding for you guys! Adeck is the best! Now & Forever! Yewwwww! - Wayne Bennett

Dibi: Thanks!!! We’re working on a new Wave Warriors, we’ve got a great team and it looks like things are turning around. It’s been quite a road.

———————————————————————————–

read many times that Herbie emulated David Nuuhiwa. Who does he like in the current gen? - Troy J. Smith

Dibi: I’m not quite sure who would have ever said that Herbie emulated David, their styles were never anything alike. Are you talking longboarding, or surfing in general?

———————————————————————————–

Why do you think Astrodeck has made it while all these other brands have gone the way of the white buffalo? - Jason McConnell

Dibi: Business success or failure is about many different things, it’s been tough as hell the past few years, but we’ve pulled together as a family, pay to go to work and hope that the sacrifices we’re all making will pay off in the long run.

———————————————————————————–

Are you guys sponsoring anyone right now! I shred the gnar gnar! - Tony Cooksey

Dibi: By sponsoring, do you mean giving away free stuff??? That would be NO.

———————————————————————————–

Who does Greyson the Skater admire as far as SURFERs go not skaters but SURFERS?!??? - Mike Klein

Dibi: Greyson is snowboarding with the Florence’s (John John, Nathan, Ivan) right now, and so I can’t ask him, but I’m sure after spending a month on the North Shore there are a few.

———————————————————————————–

Is Christian angry about how people try to do airs now and think there bad ass or is he like “told you so” or does he not care at all? - Josh Lewisten

Dibi: “I’m stoked, I just want my commission!” says Christian from the other room.

———————————————————————————–

So I never considered the Fletchers conservative. So is there something you actually are conservative about? - Ray Dilkes

Dibi: What’s your definition of conservative? I believe in hard work, the pursuit of excellence, monogamy, freedom of speech, gun rights, honesty, and loyalty.

———————————————————————————–

Who gets on your nerves so much you can’t stand it! - Thomas Thornton

Dibi: I really try not to let other people bother me that much, it’s just not worth the investment.

———————————————————————————–

Nathan goes down to Mex a lot. Is he fluent in Spanish? - Jeff Wright

Dibi: No, but he makes due.

———————————————————————————–

Ever consider taking Hey Dibi to one of the mags and have a little advice column? I think that would be neat!

- Sara Jenksen

Dibi: Are you referring to a surf magazine? They don’t usually want to print the articles I write, so it’s pretty much clear they wouldn’t be interested in an advice column.

———————————————————————————–

Hi Dibi! Well, this may not be the typical kind of question but I do admire you because you seem to be so fun and down to earth. So, as a mother myself with a boy-crazy tween any advice on how to slow down my girl? I’m afraid I’ll turn into an unwilling grandmother! Yikes! - Irma Acosta

Dibi: Wow, wish I had some sage advice. I think it’s very sad for most girls to have kids before they ever have a chance to have their own lives. It usually doesn’t end well for any of the parties involved.

———————————————————————————–

What kind of dog is Mr. Buzz anyways?? Dig that ad he’s in with Nate!! - Jacob Cohen

Dibi: I’d say a Heinz 57. Nathan adores him.

———————————————————————————–

Would you rather have the ability to fly or the ability to be invisible! Chrisstian already flies! - Kenny Laine

Dibi: I think fly, you’d be invisible as no one would be looking in the air for you.

———————————————————————————–

If you were stuck on an island with Herbie, Christian and Nathan and had to resort to cannibalism who do you think would be the tastiest? - Andrew Tripp

Dibi: They’d probably do away with me first so I wouldn’t have to deal with making a decision.

———————————————————————————–

What is your new yearz rezolution dibi fletcher? - Hector Gonzalez

Dibi: Get my broker’s license, study a foreign language, and run the company better than ever.

———————————————————————————–

do you think we are better off with the cell phones and all new technology like social media or is our lives better with these things? - Matthew Truett

Dibi: It’s hard to say because it is what you make it.

———————————————————————————–

Hi Dibi! What is a typical day for you? - Janice Terry

Dibi: I wake up around 4:30 AM, I study for about an hour, exercise for two hours, get to work by 9:15, and deal with whatever comes up, get home around 5:15 - if I don’t have to stop at the market first - read the Wall Street Journal and IBD, make dinner, read, go to bed, so I can start the whole thing over again. Sounds pretty mundane, but being an adult is mostly hard work.

———————————————————————————–

DIBI WHO DO YOU WISH COULD SPONSOR YOU . ?? WONDERING. - Mark Williams

Dibi: I like being self-sponsored; I don’t want to owe anyone anything.

———————————————————————————–

When did you know you were an artist? As a child? Later in life? Who is your favorite artist, only pick one please! - Jerry Gower

Dibi: I have always been artistic. I can’t pick one, I admire so many, but recently I’ve been very inspired by Gaudi. Herb and I would like to do huge sculptures that kids could use to skate, and Gaudi is genius.

———————————————————————————–

Maybe you won’t like this question but I am curious. Is there a company and it dont have to be a surf company but is there a company that you think is a good role model or you think has been successful and admireable? - Dave Furlough

Dibi: There are plenty of companies that have done brilliant jobs at the business they’re in. Read the Steve Jobs book and you’ll see how a company changed our way of lives. It’s fascinating. I’m not sure I’d look for a company to be a role model in anything other than business, but you can read about all sorts of business titans and take little pieces from each that you admire and create the perfect role model. All people are human, and as such, have good and not so great qualities.

———————————————————————————–

Is there an initiation to be in Herbie and Julian Shnebels blind Girls Surf club!! I want in! - Sam Weiss

Dibi: No, it’s completely up to the two of them.

———————————————————————————–

Hey dibi! Christian never answers his own posts! Why he is hard on us! Lmao! It’s a two way street bro! Lmao! - Mitch DuVeille

Dibi: He just poses the questions and let’s everyone else have their say.

———————————————————————————–

woooooooah fletchers dominate! heeeeeeeeey dibi! what is your all time favorite Surf Cover? Your dudes have dominated but do you have a fave? - Chris Diamonte

Dibi: No, I really don’t have a favorite. They’re like looking back in time, it’s been a great ride.

———————————————————————————–

Do you like Mexican food, Dibi? I can make you a mean carne asada!

- Danny Cortez

Dibi: Yes, I love Mexican food, thanks, sometime that might be nice.

———————————————————————————–

Would Nathan be opposed to wearing pink wetsuits now? - Kyle Brian

Dibi: No, I don’t think so, but I don’t know, I’ll try to remember to ask him the next time I see him.

A Christian Fletcher Christmas

Wednesday, January 9th, 2013

(I love being Santa's Little Helper)

I don’t think many of you know that, when it comes to the holidays, I’m a staunch traditionalist. I love getting into the spirit of things and celebrating with close friends and family.

Gifts, eggnog, mistletoe… hey, what’s not to love?

But I also just love spending some alone time with my kid Greyson and our baby goat, Mister Cherry Muffin. We go to Target to get our yearly Christmas photos taken - and all three of us look forward to it! Such a good time posing together, but it’s definitely MORE fun when we get to select which pics we want to mail to dear ole Grandma and Grandpa. Oh, joy!

Hope you all had a really great holiday season and here’s to looking at a fucking awesome 2013!

Bright European Skateboard Awards

Wednesday, January 9th, 2013

Greyson made this sick cover shot by Beach Brother Magazine last year (photo by Affif Bellakdar), and it looks like it also caught the attention of the people behind the Bright European Skateboard Awards because now it’s been nominated for Cover of the Year. Pretty sweet, right?

Reckless Abandon

Tuesday, January 8th, 2013

To attack fearlessly and recklessly, that’s what the Japanese word “Banzai” means. And judging from Greyson’s recent assault at the Banzai Skate Park, the boy was all about being a Kamikaze daredevil.

Check out Greyson in a couple of links. It’s good for your soul.

Dibi: I’m great, thanks. It’s a choice that I try to consciously make daily.

I never see Dibi Fletcher at Board & Brew, Christian! Take your mom out for lunch, bro! Lmao! - Hector Guerrero

Dibi: That’s very nice, and I’m sure he would be happy to, but I never eat lunch, thanks.

——————————————————————————————–

Greyson Fletcher is such an awesome skater! But don’t know much about him. What do you think a fan should know about him? Thanks! - Ray Moore

Dibi: I think he’s a really great guy, and an awesome friend. Qualities that I think are worth anyone knowing about someone else.

——————————————————————————————–

Dibi: He worked with Herb and I on it, I think it’s great.

Did you know from the early start that Christian was going to make a dent in the surf world? - Luke Hedson

Dibi: We knew he had talent, but what happened no one could have ever predicted.

——————————————————————————————–

Dibi, do you play golf? You seem like you’d play golf. I’m going to start playing golf. Let’s be a pair and go against Slater and Machado. You in? - Scott Parker

Dibi: No, I’d like to learn but just can find the time to fit anything else in the present. Hey, if you have the time, go for it. I’m into doing everything I can, that’s what makes life so interesting.

——————————————————————————————–

What happend to Bad Ass bindings? - Gary Geise

——————————————————————————————–

Hey Dibi. Down the line will there be a revival of the classic Cabo contests? Those were the days! Yewwwww! - Joey Carson

Dibi: We sure don’t have any plans in that direction at present. They were fun, but it could never be the same today. Too many rules and regulations.

——————————————————————————————–

Hey Dibi, just wondering. Christian have any of his old Lanty wetsuits around? I’d like to buy one and frame it esp. the pink one where he got the cover. I have that mag still and to have it framed and have that wetsuit would be classic! - Aaron Schweitzer

——————————————————————————————–

Was there any pressure growing up as Walter Hoffman’s daughter? Did Joyce get into surfing because of him? Or because she wanted to? - Mark Meisster

Dibi: There’s pressure growing up anyone’s daughter, I assume. I was a really wild kid, I think I was more pressure for him then any of my siblings.

——————————————————————————————–

We always went to the beach so I assume Joyce surfed because it was so available.

Was THINK FAST Nathan’s company or am I wrong about that? And if it was, was it more motox related? - Kevin Shaw

Dibi: Herb and I started it for Nathan, and yes it was more MotoX as that’s what he was really into at the time, and it made it a nice addition to the other brands we were doing at the time.
