Dibi's Russian contact Oleg was able to get Dibi a spot on Russian News TV as their American Guest Correspondent. Dibi will update Russian viewers on everything from American politics to pop culture.

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

Wich son gave you the biggest headache? And why…. - Ricard Oliveira

Just to remind some of you, I’ve left all the questions written as is. I’ve figured, why go out of my way to make some of you guys look smarter than you actually are and correct all your grammatical errors? Fuck that. - Christian

My family is featured in the August 28th, 2011 issue of The New York Times Style Magazine. If you happen to have an extra copy around, send it over to us!

In the meantime, here’s the online version of that article, as well as a video piece on the whole family (minus Nathan).

Just to remind you guys, I’ve left all the questions written as is. I’ve figured, why go out of my way to make some of you guys look smarter than you actually are and correct all your grammatical errors? Fuck that. - Christian

Hey Dibi, We met a few weeks ago, I stopped by the Astrodeck HQ and picked up the Barney in white and we talked about your Dad and the sandals named after him. I want to try to stop in soon and pick up a pair…Hope all is well…Take care! Oh as for a question ask Christian, or maybe you know…In reference to skateboarding what is wrong with mongol? Why is pumping mongol lame? - Richie Newhall

Dibi: I asked Greyson for his expert advice on this. Greyson: “First, it’s mongo. Second, it’s push. And third, it’s ugly.” And Christian said: “It’s nonfunctional and tiring.”

—————————————————————————————

This is for the Hey Dibi question section. My question is, Dibi do you think there are Hawaiian and Brazilian kids who rip harder than the OC kids but there never gonna be recognized as much cause of stupid phoney surfer stereotype? Or do you think they get enough coverage? Thanks. - Barry Blenkhorn

Dibi: What’s enough “coverage”? Kids used to surf because they loved it, now it’s about a sponsor. I think the whole thing has changed. And a lot of it? Not for the better.

—————————————————————————————

Hi there, Dibi. Putting all family loyalties, history and roots behind, just for the sake of this question, do you think you would have been drawn to surfing as an “outsider” looking in? - Brock Springer

Dibi: It’s really impossible to know, if I put all of my past aside like you suggest, I might not ever have had the chance to go to the beach or anything else. So I really can’t say.

—————————————————————————————

Dibi congrats on you and Herbie! Youv’e come a long ways babie! And you are still married to each other thru thick and thing! What is da secret to your success?? - Mark Hammy Bonaventura

Dibi: I’m not a quitter, and most of the stuff we might argue about, we already have, so why bother?

—————————————————————————————

Hi Dibi. Do you like Christian’s tattoos or not? And does he have a tattoo that says “MOM” - Rachel Carter

Dibi: I really don’t think about them one way or another, but I am glad he’s not a girl, ’cause like everything else, there is a double standard. No, “MOM” doesn’t seem to quite fit with the monster motif.

—————————————————————————————

Dibi and Christian, that photo of the two of you together…cherish those moments. Bruce Weber is a great photographer and he captures the moments so well but I think you two made it easy for him! - Alicia Hardwood

Dibi: Thanks, he’s really great to work with and I’ve been very fortunate to do so on quite a few occasions.

—————————————————————————————

What is some thing you think people are wrong about you and the family? - David Flemhing

Dibi: I think people generally think we’re much different than we are. We work hard, and are completely driven, have quirky senses of humor that others sometimes misunderstand. But I really don’t spend a lot of time analyzing what others think about us. It seems somewhat futile at this point.

—————————————————————————————

Christian, will your mom conduct any further interviews coming up for Dside or Juice? I’m a big fan! - Daniel Whelton

Dibi: Yes, I’ll do more D-Side. In fact, I talked to Jason Jessee the other day and he said he’d be stoked to do an interview, so as soon as he’s back down this way, we’re on!

—————————————————————————————

Hey Dibi, do you think surfing will get bigger or smaller as far as popularity? - Joseph Miligiani

Dibi: Bigger, more crowded, more money, less SOUL!!!

—————————————————————————————

Do you think Christian and Nathan would have made a name for themselves in surfing if they weren’t Herbie Fletcher’s sons? Not being a dick but just really wanted an honest answer. - Paul Gothard

Dibi: Their talent made them. We made it easy for them to go surfing, living at the beach, but they stood on their boards alone.

—————————————————————————————

Dibi san come to Japan with you to i welcome hole family! - Junichi Nishida

Dibi: Thank you for the invite, I’d love to come again. I think Japan and its people are amazing.

—————————————————————————————

Hey dibi I guess this is more a question for Christian but anyway if he could chose 3 sponsors to sponsor him who would he chose and i dont mean just surf brands but maybe a drink company, shoe company, you know whatever. thatd be sick if he answered thanks dibi! - Corey Jackson

Dibi: This is what Christian said: “Donald Trump, Virgin Airlines. But I can see no one treating me better than my mom. She’s always been behind me.” And he just walked out of my office laughing.

—————————————————————————————

IF I NAME MY FIRST BORN FLETCHER CAN YOU GIVE ME ASTRODECK FOR LIFE? JUST KIDDING! HA  HA HA IT WAS WORTH A SHOT!! - Rick Klievers

Dibi: Amusing. I wish Astrodeck made enough money to sponsor me!

—————————————————————————————

Where can I get a copy of Chop Suey Club? Was it ever released in regular theatres? Thanks. - Chris Hernandez

Dibi: No idea. Ebay, Amazon? I’m really not sure.

—————————————————————————————

Christian, please thank your mother. I really enjoy Hey Dibi and also The D Side Interviews. How refreshing and fun! Thanks so much for the wonderful read week after week! - Beth Waidmann

Dibi: Thanks for the support. I’m working on getting some more interviews, and as long as I keep getting questions, I’ll do my best to answer honestly.

—————————————————————————————

Do you think online and internet presence has ruined surfing? By that I mean with live webcams, everything being sales pitch with websites, magazines being online and not working on being a good publication, etc? - Micah Tolle

Dibi: I don’t think it’s one or two things that have taken the soul out of surfing, but all of it together has really made it way less cool in my opinion.

—————————————————————————————

Why don’t Nathan and Christian go on surf trips together? Used to see in the mags they always did with Herbie. Nathan still got a chip on his shoulder or what, man?!!!!!!!! - Jim Sullivan

Dibi: It was easy when they all lived at home, but they’re grown men now and it’s hard to get everyone’s schedule organized at the same time.

—————————————————————————————

Looks like the boys scored some fun out in New York. The Fletcher’s sure do live a life we all “can’t imagine!” Where were you on this trip, Dibi? - John Van Houten

Dibi: I was here sitting at my desk working. Not so glamorous, but a necessity.

—————————————————————————————

Individually speaking, what is your fondest memory of first Christian and then Nathan when they were groms? - Theresa Ohlani

Dibi: There are a million moments, thankfully, with both that have made my relationship with them extraordinary. It was all the little things; like watching them eat sandy peanut butter and jelly sandwiches that they wanted to share with me. Laughing so hard, milk would come out their at the table. Making cookies for them when they came from school to share their day. All the stuff that might be taken for granted becomes the memories of the best we’ve had together.

—————————————————————————————

Why is Julian Schnabel so fascinated with the surfing world? He doesn’t surf. That ain’t surfing. freaking poser. Why are so many celebrities fascinated and claim to surf, it’s bullshit. Matthew Mcconaughafuck? That fat fuck Jack Osbourne? If what they do they think is surfing then FML! - Matt Downey

Dibi: Julian does surf and Herb’s made many boards for him. Yes, he doesn’t surf like Christian, but he has natural style and learned as a kid in Texas, where Herb first met him.

—————————————————————————————

Does Greyson snowboard anymore? I remember him in old ads with World and Ryan Scheckler. - Drew Simpton

Dibi: Given the chance, yes. They just were focused on surfing and skating this season. I’m sure they’ll try to take a few trips in the coming season.

—————————————————————————————

Didn’t know CF was born in hawaii. he play peewee football at sunset elementary? lol. How long he was raised here before the move to cali? - Koa Reynolds

Dibi: We had Christian in Hawaii, but moved to Idaho to go skiing when he was two.

—————————————————————————————

Christian I see your folks name attached to John From Cin. what did they do? I know Greyson starred in. Thanks man, you are the Air Master! - Troy Shaw

Dibi: This is not Christian, but Dibi. We were consulting producers, and from the final product, I guess you can tell no one much listened to us.

—————————————————————————————

Dibi do you help Christian come up with all those really deep and sometimes funny questions? Not that I’m complaining! - Jennifer Fowler

Dibi: Christian has always been different than anyone gives him credit for, and maybe now others will get a glimpse of what I’ve always known.

—————————————————————————————

I ain’t voting for Obama again. I don’t know if I’ll vote for Christian. But Dibi? Hell yeah! Dibi Fletcher for Prez! Ya got a campaign manger? - Brian Friholtz

Dibi: Hope and change not working so great for you? I’d hate the job though, but I surely believe that we all deserve better.

—————————————————————————————

honestly speaking dibi, if christian was not written that letter by jeff booth and etc do you think that really started the drug spiral with christian or he would have gone down that way regardless of the letter? - tony ortega

Dibi: I don’t think most of life is predicated by one event, but more like the compounding of a series of events. Saying that, in hindsight, I believe that Christian ’s drug use was part of a series of poor choices.

—————————————————————————————

Hi Dibi, I really loved the photos of your beautiful mother. How gracious and elegant. I recall reading about your ballroom dancing as well. Is this another family gene much like surfing that’s in the family blood? - Helen Reynoldo

Dibi: I always took dancing as a kid, and got my mom into ballroom about 15 years ago. We used to go all over the country playing dress up together. It was a great time. But business got so difficult I really had to pay attention and just didn’t have the time to devote to a hobby.

—————————————————————————————

Do you think there should be drug testing in surfing WCT let alone all other sports? - Brent Luchman

Dibi: Whether I think there should be or not, it pretty irrelevant. I assume it’s just a matter of time. Dude, the government wants to dictate what light bulbs we use!

—————————————————————————————

Who or what do you not respect? - Clint Andreas

Dibi: I have no respect from the over-encroachment of the government on my civicl rights!

—————————————————————————————

THAT ANNIE LEVOBITZ PHOTO IS SO F–KING DOPE!!!! Any more shots like that? Any of Nathan from that shoot? - Michael Spurgess

Dibi: The photo is considered one of the top 100 photos of the 20th century. CF lucked out to be in it. Nathan wasn’t part of the shoot.

—————————————————————————————

Why CF looking for graphic artist when he has his own mom who is an artist! Step up CF come on dude!!!!! We’ve see it on Hey Dibi your mom’s the shit! Give her commission too! LOL!!!! - Eric Anthony

Dibi: We’ve got a whole new T-Shirt theme going that we’re all collaborating on, and I think they’ll be killer. Thanks for the vote of confidence though.

—————————————————————————————

I don’t mind grinding the pool once in awhile and doing a layback. This was during our trip to New York last month, at the Chelsea Piers Skate Park. All photos were taken by some guy named Herbie.

Space Odyssey Series #1 by Dibi Fletcher: 40"x36"x8" thick. Made from wood, resin, copper.

Hi Dibi, how are you? My question is in regards to Walter your father actually. I am just curious about how Hoffman Fabrics came about with he and the late Flippy (RIP). Thanks you’re doing a great job! - Daniel Mercado

Dibi: Hoffman Fabrics was originally started by their father, Rube, in New York before either of them were born. They got into it after they grew up and were ready to settle down.

————————————————————————————–

Dibi surfing wise, what do you think Nathan does better than Christian and what does Christian do better than Nathan? And no diplomatic answers! - Ken Overton

————————————————————————————–

————————————————————————————–

Okay come on. “Hey Dibi” needs to be bought and put into a column for Transworld Surf or syndicated live on access cable or Sirius. Maybe CF can read the questions and you can answer or there can be live call in from viewers. I wanna see DF live! - Peter North

Still in New York as of this writing. So much to report back; from the Hamptons International Film Festival to the Agenda Trade Show to Greyson and I just meeting up with random friends and hitting the streets. Who knew that summers in New York would keep me this busy?

I’ll write more about our trip when we’re back in California. In the meantime, here are a few snapshots.

Greyson, Mark Gonzales, Herbie

Frank’s Chop Shop hooked us up. “Looking clean” on the lower East Side of Manhattan.

Greyson checking out the NY skate parks.

Occasionally, I’ve written stuff about my dad and even post up some pics of him here on my site. He has his own website, too: www.herbiefletcher.com. And on top of that, Herbie even has his own Facebook Fan Page where a lot of people write to him and communicate. Haha, my dad’s trying to catch up with the 21st century.

Everyone knows how I feel about my parents; I love them and they’ve given me nothing but support and love back. I know I’m lucky. And since Father’s Day is just around the corner, I wanted to express that even more with this little write-up. But, you know, I thought I’d take this opportunity to also acknowledge my grandpa, Walter Hoffman. He doesn’t have his own website and he doesn’t have his own Facebook - I don’t even think he knows what Facebook is. But I feel like he’s being cheated by not having some kind of acknowledgment with an online presence. Not that he’s the type to ever ask for it…

Anyway, my mom and I were talking about it, and we found this classic photo of Walter. How cool is this? Check out the Malibu Board. I could go on and on about how great my grandpa is; what a pioneer he is in the surf industry, his early days surfing Rincon, Dana Point, and Makaha, and so much more. But instead of me writing a novel about it, I think my mom got it down tight, and got it down right:

“I love this picture of my dad. He looks so COOL and stylish standing with his board - that was considered one of the most contemporary of the era. Although years have passed since this photo was taken in the early ’50s, he’s still the same surf-stoked guy that plays his ukulele on the beach under the palapa on the weekends after catching a few waves. He really embodies the essence of the waterman and reminds me constantly what the beach lifestyle is all about. He’s the greatest dad, and like many men of his generation he doesn’t say much in the way of compliments, but I hope I’ve been a daughter that he’s proud of. I sincerely wish all the fathers -young and old - a very Happy Father’s Day!” - Dibi Hoffman Fletcher

Walter Hoffman

May 08, 2011: Christian, Dibi, Nathan and Greyson on Mother's Day

Well now its the Fletcher’s turn who has been the kindest to you Dib and Christian and Herbie and Nathan and Greyson? Am I missing any Fletchers? - Greg Salazar

Dibi: It’s difficult to answer the question in the manner that you’ve asked. You’ve named us individually, but I assume you mean us as a family and to that I’ll answer my Mom and Dad.

——————————————————————————————————————————————

Hey Dibi! Will Hey Dibi ever get a time slot on Siriuis with a live show from you? It would be great for the whole Fletcher Family to have a show like the Lawrence Welk family hour? Hehe but more core! - Danny Samson

Dibi: Wow, Lawrence Welk, that is a very funny visual. Who knows what will happen in the future, but we’re open for the adventure.

————————————————————————————–

Hello Dibi. Were you daddy’s little girl or mama’s little helper or none of the above? – Gordon Tiflend

Dibi: None of the above. I was the middle daughter, my sister was the student body president, my brother was the only boy, and my younger sister was the baby. Not much room in there for me, but I think in hindsight it helped make me very determined and focused for which I’m very grateful.

————————————————————————————–

Will there be Savage Beast: The New Generation starring CF and Greyson? – Tony Etechelberg

Dibi: We’re starting to work on a new “Wave Warriors” and I don’t know what comes after that.

————————————————————————————–

Why Donald Trump? Why not run with Dibi Fletcher, Christian???? UM YES PLEASE!!! - Joanie Rowin

Dibi: That’s very funny, but I’m afraid we’re so NOT PC, we wouldn’t get very far. And, frankly, we’re having way more fun.

————————————————————————————–

Can my name be included if I just write: DIBI FLETCHER ROCKS!!! Without a question? Lol! – Bill Noonan

Dibi: Sure, I’m glad you want to be included, that’s what this format is about.

————————————————————————————–

Dibi where are YOUR surf photos? Let’s see them! Come on hot surf mama! – Keith Ricksum

Dibi: I surfed as a kid but never got that into it - didn’t want to compete with my sister. I was in quite a few tandem events when I was around 13. I think there may be some photos in the estate of Leroy Grannis, but I’m not sure.

—————————————————————————————————————————————–

You are beautiful and smart! Do others know how lucky they are to know you? – Michelle Bennet

Dibi: Thank you, that’s very nice. I hope that all my friends and family feel about me like I feel about them.

————————————————————————————–

I love that picture of you with Christian taken by Bruce Weber. You’re so cute with your hair like that. I have seen this before, at your parents house? – Katherine Bennett-Rau

Dibi: Thanks, I love that hair also.

————————————————————————————–

Hey Dibi that is a fucking sick shirt Christian is wearing. PUTTING THE HATE BACK INTO SKATEBOARDING! Is that a custome made shirt by Christian are you guys gonna sell those? – Steve Ensell

Dibi: I think it’s pretty classic and, yes, we’re considering quite a few new prints but haven’t narrowed it down yet.

————————————————————————————–

Ever propose to Christian to maybe get rid of the skulls and guts and all things heshyan and maybe throw in some leis and lowers a nd waterfalls for his new logo? ? ? (BTW, Kidding!) – Erin Murray

Dibi: What I think is one of the most fascinating attributes about Christian, is that he could pull leis, waterfalls or anything else and still be completely authentic. It’s not the skulls that make him, that’s purely external, he himself is completely unique.

————————————————————————————–

When is Christian coming to visit us in Ireland? – Joe Kieran

Dibi: I’m sure he’d love to come, and if business were better, I’d love to send him and Greyson. So, let’s hope things turn around and perhaps you’ll see them in the future.

————————————————————————————–

Hi Dibi. Is there anyone you really miss right now in your life? - Corrine Mueller

Dibi: I try not to spend time on thinking about things not in my life, it takes the joy out of what is.

————————————————————————————–

Chrisstian has it known you are the tribel leader of fletchers! Yes! Agree? – Adrian Guerrero

Dibi: Someone had to be, and the guys would all rather be surfing, skating, or otherwise involved. So I learned how to do everything. Who do you think is the dummy in this picture?

—————————————————————————————————————————————–

LOL the Donald Trump/Christian Fletcher running mates gag you guys did was great. Who thinks of all this? Christian if it’s you, you’re one mofo genius! – Trent Johnston

Dibi: I agree, Christian has the greatest sense of humor and is always willing to laugh at himself, which I think is the BEST.

————————————————————————————–

Hey Dibi, how are you and the hub doing lately? Good to see how active you guys are on FB, love all the updates! – Denise Fletcher (no relation, lol)

Dibi: We’re doing fine, thank you for asking. FB has been a very interesting way for us to get out to so many people and have fun. I think people in general took us much more serious then we take ourselves, FB has let us have some fun.

————————————————————————————–

Hey Dibi is such a hit lol I love it! How about you guys doing something with Herbie too! Like hit Up Herbie! LOL! – Pat Meade

Dibi: Thanks, I enjoy it. Herb just doesn’t have the time right now with everything else going on.

—————————————————————————————————————————————–

Bloodshot! Bloodshot! Bloodshot! There’s nothing on any of the Fletcher pages about Bloodshot! Make a bloodshot fan page! Yewwwwwww! – Paul Gambia

Dibi: I’d love to do everything, but we all work full time. Plus, trying to keep up with everything everyone seems to enjoy is more than a second job. But we’ll certainly put your request in the box with the others that we just can’t get to right now.

——————————————————————————————————————————————

Hi Ms. Dibi. If I send my own picture of Greyson, Christian and Nathan can I get their autographs as well as yours and Herbie? I don’t have a photo of you and Herbie that is my own though. Thanks! – Rick Hamm

Dibi: Sure, send it with a return, self-addressed, stamped envelope and I’ll do my best.

————————————————————————————–

Astrodeck has NOT gone the way of Gotcha, MCD, Airwalks, Vision, Hot Tuna, Maui & Sons, etc and a bunch of other companies that were big back in the 80s and now are gone or trying to come back. What’s the secret? – Miles Schroeder

Dibi: Perseverance I guess. It’s a tough go right now, I’ll tell you. Trying to compete with publicly traded companies is really next to impossible, but I’m not giving up!! ——————————————————————————————————————————————

Where are Christian’s old Lanty wetsuits? I will buy them. Serious. – Bradoh Parkes

Dibi: I think they’re like so much of the past, long forgotten, sorry.

————————————————————————————–

That is heavy what Nathan had to do and how he got Sion M. I hope Nathan is doing better now? – George Rojas

Dibi: Yes, I’m sure it was a difficult experience for him and everyone involved. I saw him on Mother’s Day and he spoke so nicely about Sion, I believe that’s a very good sign.

————————————————————————————–

What drives you craaaaazy? Fingernails across the chalkboard, hypocrites, back-stabbers, etc. – Lucy Wheller

Dibi; Hypocrites pretty much top my list. There are other little idiosyncrasies that piss me off, but I’m much more patient then I used to be.

————————————————————————————–

Can you give me Christian’s phone number? Well…it was worth a shot. - Christina Loughlin

Dibi: I try to stay out of certain parts of CF’s life and we get along great.

————————————————————————————–

Dibi you are so rad. How do you stay so rad! – Noel Hughson

Dibi: Good genes, lots of exercise, health food, and a sense of humor.

————————————————————————————–

It’s pretty obvious you and Chrisstian are close. How great that is for you guys! But have their everf been awakeward mom/son moments? – Nutty Dale

Dibi: Plenty; I think when I had to be a parent-escort when he was in high school and I came dressed in a red leather mini skirt, red fishnet hose, purple suede boots, and a chain mail top, that certainly got his attention and we laugh about it to this day.

——————————————————————————————————————————————

What is the one absolute power you want to have and be done with? Just one thing you could do. Either for the world or in the surfing world, etc. – Rory Meadows

Dibi: I’m very much a realist and I can’t imagine with all the terrible things going on where the starting point is.

————————————————————————————–

Hi Dibi question that maybe you can run by Christian, does he keep his old boards as a collection? Many of his boards and the ads have such a vivid piece in my memory from my childhood. The big T&C sticker, the graphics, etc. Thank you. – Jim Doulph

Dibi: We’ve tried to hold on to some of the boards, and we do have quite a collection, but the boys sold many or traded many of them for whatever reasons, so I’m sure there are some floating around.

————————————————————————————–

Is Greyson ever going to grow his hair long again like he had it in JFC? – Melanie Jeffson

Dibi: I don’t know. I’ll bet he probably doesn’t either.

————————————————————————————–

Do you think we are better off with Twitter and Facebook or do you think this is all good? Just an opinion on what you think. Thank you. Raymond Havissey

Dibi; It doesn’t matter what I think; they’re here to stay.

—————————————————————————————————————————————–

Ever think about bringing back think fast with the hot rods and stuff? – Kale Fritz

Dibi: Yes, I’ve thought about it, but right now I’m so busy trying to keep the company alive I can’t afford to diversify. But if things turn around it could well be in our future.

————————————————————————————–

What is your opinion on gay rights? And gay surfers? – Sostoked Wedger

Dibi: I don’t really have one, not having personally had to deal with it, I’m sorry to say that it hasn’t been top on my list. But if you’re asking if I’m homophobic, not in the least.

—————————————————————————————————————————————–

Does Nathan bleach his hair? He always has a good blond/orange tuft on his hair but could the sun really bleach it that light considering he has such dark-looking hair now? – B.T. Renniger

Dibi: No, he doesn’t, it’s really the sun.

————————————————————————————–

My Friend said Greyson is going to be starring in a new movie with Ryan Sheckler about going to a skate university. When is this going to come out? – Tracy Whitman

Dibi: Your friend is completely off-base. Greyson’s having fun exactly where he’s at for the time being.

————————————————————————————–

Happy Mothers Day Dibi. Your a wonderful loving mother, an inspiration and dudes totally think your hot! lol It’s all true! Here’s to you..:) – Barbie Difrenza

Dibi: Thank you, I appreciate the well wishes.

————————————————————————————–

Hey there Dibi! Happy Mother’s Day! Do CF and Nathan do anything for you in particular? - Jen Kroize

Dibi: Thanks, this was the first time I got to see them together in a long time and it was GREAT!

————————————————————————————–

I agree with Christian. What’s up with Snips and Kanga now trying to act like their so in support of the airs when before they couldn’t accept it? What’s your take on this Dib? – Casey Deveroll

Dibi: People all usually change with time, but it sure takes some sooooooo much more time then others.
