“Hey Dibi, does Christian really press flowers into albums and write poems?”

Wednesday, June 29th, 2011

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, I’ve been a big fan of your family for years. I had a battle with drug and alcohol addiction a few years back that landed me in rehab 3 times, and I know Christian has had his issues along hte same lines. Thankfully I just celebrated 9 years clean, got married a year and a half ago, and also am about to finish college. My question is even after being sober as long as I have I have still felt a little lost as to what I should do with my life, what is yoiur best advice for life after addiction? Thanks - Tolson Dwiggins

Dibi: It sounds like you’ve been doing all the right things. Keep it up and don’t make the mistake of living life in the rear view mirror.

So what do you think, Dibs? What’s a stereotype of surfers that you hate? Good Question CF asked. - Marsh Bevan

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

Hi Dibi! Admire your family and your roots! On the nosy side, I was trying to do the math? Walter must have been just a kid when Joyce was born?? - TK Dover

Dibi: Yes, you’re correct.

————————————————————————————————————————————————————————-

Hey Dibi, have read with much joy all your “Hey Dibi” series. My fave was the story of your outrageous outfit and going to school with Christian. What’s something your own parents did when you were growing-up that embarrassed the heck out of ya? Lmao! - Connie Prithias

Dibi: My dad was in the textile business and whenever my friends would come over, he’d grab their clothes and feel the fabric, look at the tags, and say “That’s cheap shit!” and give them a price quote per yard. I got so used to it, I didn’t pay much attention. But it embarrassed the hell out of my friends at first.

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

How’s Nathan? - John Osinovich

Dibi: He’s doing really well, thanks.

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

Do elephant farts really have hallucinogenic effects! - Cesar Saiz

Dibi: Wow, maybe you ought to hang out at the zoo and find out.

————————————————————————————————————————————————————————–
Dibi, what is your meaning on life? – Mario Zavala

Dibi: As thoughts are things, it’s whatever you think it is.

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

What were you and Herbie strict about? There had to be something! – Chris Jeromy

Dibi: I made Christian read every day for half an hour; he ended up a great reader and certainly an interesting communicator.

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

Dibi did Joyce go to San Clemente High? – Ellie Ochoa

Dibi: Yes, she was a senior the first year it opened.

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

Hey Dibi, soooooo… those Bloodshot pics? - Edgar Bustamante

Dibi: I’ve tried to explain I don’t have any. Perhaps you can put a shout out on FB and maybe someone who was at one of the stops from the East Coast tour is holding and willing to share.

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

Dibi how often does Herbie surf? – Ray Hauser

Dibi: Depends on the surf, but when it’s happening, he’s on it.

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

Dibi, how can we get Christian to talk on his Facebook! (I mean he asks great questions but leaves us to fend for ourselves, ROFLMAO!) – Bob Wiznick

Dibi: I would guess that he’s using the medium exactly the way he wants, and doesn’t feel the need to referee.

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

Do you have the map to the other side of the universe? – Recycled House

Dibi: The back of your eyelids?

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

Going through my old ASS vids. So sick. Miss those times. Nathans seen in one bungee diving I think this was tweak freaks? Where did he do that and whatever happened to his pilot’s license? – Rick Carr

Dibi: He did the bungee jump on the beach in France. He’s thinking about taking up flying again, so we’ll see.

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

Dibi Fletcher was the milf before we knew what milf was!! – Dan K. Boyd

Dibi: That’s amusing, I didn’t know what one was until I started this column.

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

Christian is my hero! Nathan is someone I look up to! Herbie I respect! Greyson is the next new thing! And you Dibi are the IT FACTOR! Shout out to all you Fletcher’s! – Stevie Meachum

Dibi: Thank you, we all appreciate your good wishes. It’s really very nice.

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

Hey Dibi! Who was the shaper for Christian Fletcher Surfboards? – Gregory Orring

Dibi: Christian was the designer and he used ghost shapers.

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

Will the Fletcher’ss be makeening an appearance in Australia? – Trent McDonnelly

Dibi: Wow, would love to. Haven’t been in years and would love to return sometime soon.

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

Dibi what’s one domesticated homely thing you say you do. Your life with the art and dancing and friendship with the Bruce Webers of the world is as Christian has stated “a world I can’t imagine!” – Clarke Sebastian

Dibi: I cook dinner every night for myself and the guys, it’s a pleasure!

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

You ever steal anything as a kid? Or did Christian or Nathan you know just little kid stuff like candy or whatevs? Just thought it’s funny to ask that’s all. – Aaron Ryder

Dibi: I never stole anything. As far as CF and Nathan go, I’d have to ask, but I doubt it.

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

I’ve read in interviews with you and with Herbie about how you ran away as a kid and have been with Herbie ever since. What do you think about this in retrospect? – Phil Martin

Dibi: About running away, or being with Herbie? I’m very happy with where I am now, and I can second guess my whole life with what if’s, but I try to be grateful and appreciate the weird and wacky life I’ve had and enjoy all the great adventures that have led up to today.

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

How long do I cook broccoli for an al-dente effect? – Renee Mularz

Dibi: Depending on how it’s cut will determine the time to steam. Do not boil!

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

I know Nathan rode for Gotcha but from his transition from Gotcha to Quiksilver did he ride for MCD for a short time (I know MCD came from Gotcha but was it’s separate company as well)…… thanks. – Oliver Zinman

Dibi: No, he never rode for MCD.

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

Can’t believe Greyson is 20! Kid is amazing on four wheels. Tell him he’s got fans in North Carolina! – Jesse Bishop

Dibi: He’s amazing to me, period. I’ll let him know, thanks.

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

Hi Dibi. How do I emancipate myself from the bondage of this planet? – Eric James John Bailey

Dibi: Close your eyes and go inside.

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

Hey Dibi, do you know a way to permanently get rid of mosquito’s? – Josh Haworth

Dibi: No, they’ve never liked me much. I probably eat too much hot sauce, like the Tabasco commercial.

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

Do you guys as a family sit down and watch movies together? – Roger Kissmeth

Dibi: Sometimes when everything fits together, but not often.

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

What’s the Fletcher family itinerary this summer? Dibi, Herbie, Nathan, Christian and little Greyson not so little though right! – Ben Hethcourt

Dibi: Herb’s leaving for NY later this week for an art show. Then we go again later in the month to the film festival where they’re showing “Super Natural”. CF and Grey are going back to Japan to show support, and who knows what else will fall into line?

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

DIBI DO YOU KNOW TOMORROWS LOTTO NUMBERS? - Paul Nievens

Dibi: Never played Lotto, so I don’t know how many numbers you even need.

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

Dibi all I want to ask is how have you been doing? – Bethany Krauss

Dibi: I’ve been doing fine, thanks for asking.

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

Lol, get outta here! Hey dibi, does Christian really press flowers into albums and write poems! Who’d a thunk it!!!! I’m impressed! – Dave Tillstrom

Dibi: Christian does quite a few things that I find amusing.

“Will the Fletcher’s have a show like the Lawrence Welk family hour?”

Tuesday, May 10th, 2011

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

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.

“How do you guys deal with all the ass kissers?”

Tuesday, April 12th, 2011

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

Who do you think is the most villainous person of all time? - Albert Sagihara

Dibi: It seems to me that every era has completely demented and deranged people that are enabled by their peers to commit atrocities. It’s difficult to pick a favorite from the many monsters of past and present.

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

Hey Dibi! what is your secret to great skin in the sun? You are absolutely beautiful! - Summer Elizabeth Stewart

Dibi: Thanks, I do my best to stay out of the sun and have for the last 20 years. It sucks, but I go to the beach all covered up!

————————————————————————————–

Any possibility of posting up some old school Bloodshot photos? Thanks! - Tajim Shaw

Dibi: Sorry, I really don’t have any pics of Bloodshot. I think someone posted some awhile back from when the band was on a tour of the East Coast.

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

Hi Dibi, what has been your favorite ad of Christian and Nathan and will you post it up if you have a copy of it? - Billy Salters

Dibi: I thought the Airwalk ad of Christian when he’s dressed in tennis whites, jumping over the net, was amusing. For Nathan, it was the Art Brewer photograph of him standing in front of a little clapboard house with blue trim and pink flamingos in the yard for Gotcha.

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

Hey Dibi, you and the hub are good stuff. Thanks for making life creative and colorful. - Christopher Taloa

Dibi: Oh, that’s nice. I’m glad to know that people enjoy what we’re doing.

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

Hey Dibi just so I know for future reference, what WON’T you answer? Don’t want to make a fool out of myself! LOL! - Dan Burke

Dibi: I don’t know, perhaps there are things that I feel are private, but I try to be polite and just let it go.

—————————————————————————————————————————————–Hey Dibi what is Greyson’s favorite food? I love Greyson Thunder Fletcher! - Jesse Andrade

Dibi: It’s Nasi Badang!!

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

Sooo just a question for Christian but seeing how he doesnt answer anyone, maybe Mom could give some kind of answer? Christian: Boxers or briefs? - Alison Winchem

Dibi: I think that’s something Christian should answer for himself - if he feels the need.

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

Dibi or Christian or whoever can answer, what happened to Lanty wetsuits? Are they only in Japan now with no shops carrying them here? There so sick! Had a shortjohn Lanty back in the day! Want another one! - Chris Green

Dibi: Unfortunately, they’re out of business and I don’t think it will be resurrected anytime soon.

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

hey gonna post another pic of good ole walter stuffing someone going left in mexico? SICK PIC! GO WALTER! - darius givens

Dibi: It’s very interesting that so many people write in and request photos, I’ll see if I can dig something up.

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

hi dibi. what are you in total disagreement with herbie about? - Peter Armorsen

Dibi: It’s usually little things, if it was the big stuff, we couldn’t have made it this long.

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

What do you think is the biggest waste of money and time? OF ALL TIME! - Billy Everett

Dibi: That’s difficult, it’s so broad, I’m not quite sure what you’re asking. Government programs, plenty! Business, being expected to give away “free” stuff.

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

hey dibi what ever happened to joyce Hoffman .??? in the early day she was the surf hottie.always had style and class .how about an update on joyce ? thanks- Robert Bentley

Dibi: She does a lot of stand up paddling, enjoys camping and fly fishing, UGH!

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

WTF I just saw this movie called AMERICAN SUMMER was that nathan I just saw??? How’d he get that gig?? Mango or Mongo or something was the name???!!!!!!??????? - Troy Luigo

Dibi: I think that’s right, but it was so long ago I can’t really remember.

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

Hey Dibi! For everyone in your family, including Greyson Fletcher and Joyce Hoffman and your father Walter as well as Herbie, yourself and Nathan and Christian, name actors who you think could portray you guys perfectly. - Bailey Derwin

Dibi: None, I think I’d always just consider them imposters.

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

Please post more pix of your beautiful self Dibi! So apreciate! - Bianca De La Castro

Dibi: I never liked having my picture taken much, but I’ll look around.

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

I don’t have a question, just stopping by to say hi….hi Dibi! - Mike Costello

Dibi: Hey, that’s cool!

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

Can you tell Greyson happy belated birthday for me! I am a huge fan of his and will he be doing any new shows? - Morgan Pierce

Dibi: I’ll give him the message. As for another show, I don’t think anytime soon. He’s skating all the time and enjoying himself.

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

Is Hoffman Fabrics and Astrodeck run by the same group or group of financiers? - Jeff Dowland

Dibi: No! Hoffman Fabrics is run by my brother Tony. Astrodeck is a completely separate entity and I’m COO.

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

Any chance of you posting up some photos of Nathan as a grom. I don’t mean when he was 5 but more like 16, 17 in his early Gotcha ad days? I am making a collage for my Surf PE class on favorite surfers and we have to make a time line - Rebecca Sordstrom

Dibi: I’m sure you can probably find photos on Google Images to help with your collage.

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

What would be a dream come true for you? - Jason Stiles

Dibi: I’d sure like a little more time to make art.

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

I’ve seen Greyson at the San Clemente skatepark and he frigging rips! When did he first hop on a skateboard and can ya ask him for me what it is he likes so much about it? What’s he working on? - Mike Olversten

Dibi: Christian put him on his first skateboard when he was a week old. Yesterday he was trying to do a nose block, and he thinks it will be a go again today even though he says it’ll probably be impossible for awhile.

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

Hey Dibi is that barbed wire artwork of Nathan in Supernatural? I thought it looked familiar. Fantastic piece of work! - Rhett Timony

Dibi: Herb and I can’t remember, it’s sad, but we’ve done so many things since then, it’s hard to keep it all straight. But again, it’s quite probable I painted it right about that time.

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

How do you guys deal with all the ass kissers? DAMN it makes me laugh but do you guys get tired of it or know who your real friends are??? - Tony Raiffler

Dibi: That’s funny, I don’t think most people like us very much, but then again I really stay quite isolated and no one around here kisses my ass.

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

Joel Tudor says Herbie calls people fags but if he does then why is he friends with Bruce Weber and other gay Hollywood people? - Darryl Paulsen

Dibi: I don’t know what Joel Tudor says, but I will tell you personally that if Herb ever said that, it was taken out of context as Herb and I have many gay friends.

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

Hey! Are you guys gonna do some 80s skaters like Hosoi and maybe even older thatn that liek Jay adams or someone for your interview show you know the ddside that would be so dank! - Ronnie Bushwerck

Dibi: Yes, I have plans to do some of the older skaters, it just hasn’t gelled yet.

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

Why does CF have 4 Facebook sites? Which one is the real one? Is this the real Dibi? Help! I’m confused! Arrrrgh! - Leo Kasbrek

Dibi: FB has rules that only let you have so many friends, so CF has had to create other sites to accomodate everyone that wants to give him their opinion.

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

You Make Beautiful Children!! - Kimberly Foreman

Dibi: Thanks, it’s been everything and a whole lot more then I could have ever imagined.

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

Do you know what kind of girls Greyson likes and does he have his own Facebook? Thank you! - Tamara Schurr

Dibi: No, he and I don’t talk much about girls, we usually talk more about the business and skating.

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

Are you patriotic or do you think America is a sinkhole? - Scott Janey

Dibi: I’m proud to be an American. I don’t like a lot of what’s going on, but I’m grateful to live somewhere that I’m free not to like it and change things by voting.

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

Dibi nice photos and nice art. Ever think about putting them in a collection? - David Montoya

Dibi: I don’t understand exactly what you mean. They are in a collection: mine.

Been looking all my old Fletcher vids wont part with those ever! You guys did So Alone for Archy and Smut Peddler was Christian’s but how come you guys never came out with a solo vid for Nathan? that would have been sick! - Tim Flood

Dibi: Nathan didn’t want one. We made the snowboard series “Talk’s Cheap” and he was in all of those.

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

What is the nicest thing you have ever seen Christian say or do?- Jim Thornton

Dibi: That list would be very long. He’s a great dad and a wonderful son. I’m fortunate enough to see that in him everyday, and I’m very grateful.

—————————————————————————————————————————————–Hey Dibi, I know you are friends with Bruce Weber, are you guys going to be featured in any of his upcoming books? - RJ Rawlin

Dibi: I guess that would be for him to decide. He’s been a wonderful friend through the years and it’s always a pleasure to work with him.

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

What would you have changed about John From Cinncinati and your experience with it? - Prisilla Abvens

Dibi: Everything!!

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

Everyone has their weakness when it comes to material things even though we all pretend we’re not. So what would you say is something material you, Nathan, Christian and Herbie cherish? - Ryan Nilsson

Dibi: I adore jewelry! I can’t really speak for the others they don’t really seem too materialistic. They like their equipment alright, but they’re not hung up on it.

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

How has Nathan been doing since Sion? - Johnny Noyce

Dibi: He’s surfing and carrying on, but I’m sure the experience changed him deeply.

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

Hi Dibi, see any good movies or read any good books or see anything on the news that has made you cry lately? - Corey Grimes

Dibi: I just finished “Serpentine” by Thomas Thompson. It was interesting. The news pisses me off so much of the time that I try to put boundaries on my watching time. I cried when I saw the devastation in Japan and thought of how horrible it will be for them for a long time to come, it’s heartbreaking.

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

Hey there, Dibi. So here’s my question: Did you raise the boys more as a parental figure or as a friend? Were there boundaries? - Annie Whilem

Dibi: I was a kid, so I’d have to say more as friends as that was all I knew. In hindsight, maybe I should have done something different, but there’s no use living life in the rear view mirror. Both the boys say they had the best childhood ever, so I guess it’s all good now.

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

I am SUCH a fan of your artwork and yet they seem like such a rare, individual thing. To call it “art” or “artwork” seems…? I don’t know…not you. Is there one definitive word you would call your art? - Ricky Verattle

Dibi: I don’t know, I never liked to sign the pieces because I always thought it made it final and I’ve always liked the idea that they were alive and subject to change. Wow, writing that sounds a bit weird, but the other day I noticed a painting had gotten drips of rain running down it through the roof at work, I like it much better now that it has a life of it’s own.

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

What do you look forward to? - Kenneth Howard

Dibi: I really look forward to the time between the day and night when everything seems still and the sky lights up with the amazing fire of the sunset and the ocean reflects the colors back, it all looks like a huge resin painting, exquisite!

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

Hi Dibi! You are STUNNING not only in that Weber portrait with Christian but the Mirror image. Look forward to more! - Patty Ruff

Dibi: Thank you, that’s very nice.

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

Hey Dibi! Hey I didn’t know Christian was born in Hawaii? How long did you raise him there and where was Nathan born? Interesting! - Jenn Trietke

Dibi: We stayed in Hawaii for a couple of years then moved to Sun Valley, Idaho. Nathan was born in San Clemente.

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

Lol Dibi, read the last “Hey Dibi” and must say I find it so entertaining. And I found out you like hot Vietnamese sauces like I do! Are you a fan of Srirachi as well? - Chris Langston

Dibi: Yes, I’m a huge fan.

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

Ok fess up time Dib! Hehe. Did christian suck his thumb or have a security blankie or play with Ken & Barbie dolls. What did he do that will make us all go d AWWWWWWWWWWW! - Bethany Greenberg

Dibi: No, he was quite content and never gave a rip about what anyone thought. He loved to go fast and was totally fearless so I put a motorcycle helmet on him and let him go. At two, he’d haul ass down the hill where we lived, giving the passing cars the finger. He was quite something!

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

Hi Dibi. Tough past year for the Fletcher I would assume with Andy, Flippy and Sion. By the way, how is Nathan holdling up? Has he been kicking it a lot with Bruce for support? - Phillip Hasbrough

Dibi: I think Nathan is good, life’s always a challenge and it’s how you go through it that determines the character of man you become. I would hope that we all have the character to be our best.

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

LMAO DIBI! Christian is such a kidder but sometimes it doesn’t seem like he’s kidding at all! So is he really going to do a reading for the producers for Charlie sheen’s old TV gig? I can’t tell LMAO! Is this for real? If it is, I hope he gets the part! Who better than CF to replace CS?! - Marc Allen

Dibi: I guess we’ll have to wait and see, he’s always been up for new experiences.

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

Hey Dibi! So looking back and being a long time Fletcher fan, seems like Christian’s surfing and hairstyles have always evolved! Lol! What was yours and his favorite? I’m digging the black mohawk and purple hair in Tweak Freaks. - Glen Saucedo

Dibi: Well, the industrial glued hair horns at the Federal Building was a bit much, but the black mohawk was cool.

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

So I know christian always clowns us about running for prez and doing american idol and all that but hows abut you diby? what about dances with the stars i see you used to dance all the time! - ronnie wheeler

Dibi: Yes, I used to dance a lot, but I don’t think “Dancing with the Stars” is for me. Who would run Astrodeck?

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

What???? I saw Skeletor is friends with Christian on Facebook? Say it ain’t so!! Is Christian now having dinner with Ian Carnes? Tandem surfing with Pat O? What happened? Ha ha ha! - Dillon Mackeral

Dibi: I think they all want to know what CF is up to. Love him or hate him, he’s interesting.

“Hey Dibi, I’m a former problem skateboarder because of your sons…”

Thursday, March 24th, 2011

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, If a girl asks ya to go out with her and you want to but are flat broke , what do ya do ? Embarrassed to tell her your broke but don’t wanna blow her off again . - Mark Winnie

Dibi: Tell her your broke. Honesty is always best, and go do something like walking on the beach in the sunset - free and fabulous!

—————————————————————————————————————————————–
Hey Dibi, you are a hot mamacita! When was your first kiss? - Troy Victor

Dibi: Thank you. I assume you’re asking about a first BIG kiss; I’d have to say 7th grade if that’s the case.

—————————————————————————————————————————————–Hey Dibi where do you think mankind will be 100 years from now? - Jesse Monroe

Dibi: WOW, like now I’m Einstein, how great. Sometimes I wish I knew, but frankly I think that might take some of the fun out of the journey. On a serious note, if we don’t get our fiscal house in order, repeal health care, and address quite a few other hugely pertinent matters, we’re going to be in serious trouble long before the afore mentioned 100 years.

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

Heys Dibi, do you guys sell any of old nathenand christen bboards i will buy can you tell me? - joao olivas

Dibi: Do you mean the boards from when they were kids? That would be no. Their boards now? I’d have to ask them.

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

Hey Dibi, So what exactly happened with Surfer? I couldn’t grasp it all due to Surfer Magazine’s censoring of Christian. - Wayne Thewlis

Dibi: Christian wrote a technical description of a Judo air and posted a picture of Al Partanen to illustrate his text on Surfer’s FB page, as they had made such an obvious mistake in their description in the Tricktionary article. They deleted it and CF reposted it until they blocked him from being able to post anything. Herb went to their office on another issue and it spilled over. They finally admitted by phone that because he’s not sponsored his comments are not relevant. Pretty interesting, don’t you think??

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

Hi dibi, I’ve attached a photo and sent it to Christian’s message invoice of this great photo of Nathan next to one of your mannequin paintings, do you happen to have some more of those photos? I had asked you about it before and you said you were going to post them up but haven’t. :( - Jenny Rovin

Dibi: I never received a photo, and I apologize, but I really don’t know what photos you’re referring to. There’s been a lot of photos over the years and it’s more then difficult to keep track.

—————————————————————————————

Greyson Thunder? Is there a Lightning Fletcher? - Scott Chapman

Dibi: Not that I know of Scott, but I’ll keep it in mind.

—————————————————————————————

Hey Dibi, I’m a former problem skateboarder because of your sons. - Jeff Hemp Samms

Dibi: Former, um, no more skateboarding or no more problems?

—————————————————————————————

Hey Dibi, Ok Christian said we could be nosy! I’m so curious about you, Dibi! What was your childhood like? Where did you grow up? I’ve read before you were the dancer and Joyce the tomboy. - Francis Hillstrom

Dibi: Yes I was a dancer, but I’d also say I was a risk taker. I grew up fast, left home in Capistrano Beach really early, and had Christian while I was still a teenager. That’s when I really started finding out who I was. I love to learn, I’m really a perfectionist about my own skills and very demanding that I live up to the goals I’ve set for myself. I’m never bored, there won’t be enough time to master all the things I’d like to. I cook dinner every night and love to laugh.

—————————————————————————————

Hey Dibi, Sweet, sour, salty or all three? - Nance Pughlia

Dibi: Ah, you didn’t mention HOT. Love the Vietnamese hot sauce that makes your nose run and eyes water.

—————————————————————————————

Hey Dibi, I saw a photo of Nathan’s dog not to long ago in an issue of Transworld Surf. What kind of breed is that? - Heather Akrim

Dibi: I believe it’s a Poi dog. An adorable mutt.

—————————————————————————————

Hey Dibi what’s the most physical pain y ou’ve ever been in? - Matty Ratty

Dibi: I have a pretty high tolerance for physical pain, it’s the mental shit that’s really a killer for me. I guess having a baby ranks up there, but it was over so quick, and it’s quite difficult to conjure up past pain as it’s now just a thought. Maybe when I had a few appendix attacks, but it was so long ago, it’s just another memory.

—————————————————————————————

Hey Dibi, Have the Fletcher’s lost any friends due to the recent Japanese earthquake and tsunami? - Dylan Rouse

Dibi: As of now, I haven’t heard that any of our friends have perished, for which we are sincerely grateful. It”s a terrible tragedy and I feel so sad for the entire Japanese nation. It’s amazing to watch them behave in such a state of grace while the news worsened everyday. I hope that they can rebuild their country and lives quickly and I’m happy to help in whatever way I can.

—————————————————————————————

Hey Dibi, Seems like Christian & Grayson had a great time in Japan. How has the earthquake affected them? - Ralph Benson

Dibi: They were devastated, as we all were. They have managed to contact many friends and are waiting to hear from more that are hopefully just unable to communicate at present. It’s been quite a wake-up call.

—————————————————————————————

Hey Dibi do you know what helps determine Christian, Nathan, greyson and even Herbie to sign that dotted line as far as going with a particular company? I mean, in this great big dog-eat-dog world it’s always about money but are there other factors involved as well? - Bryant LaVoult

Dibi: I think there are a lot of other factors that, when not taken into consideration, can create an acrimonious relationship between a rider and sponsor. I agree that the money is important, but sometimes it might be better to take less and be happy. I think that may be more important in the long run then any amount of money.

—————————————————————————————

Hey Dibi, So question….. I don’t suppose I can trade off with you? Do some yard work, be your cabana pool boy, etc for one of your killer art pieces? - Danny Kellson

Dibi: Although it does sound tempting, I have to reject the offer at this time. I just don’t have enough time to make the art I’d like so what I have has become that much more valuable to me.

—————————————————————————————

Hey Dibi, What do you love about your life right now and what do you hate about it? - Nate Greenberg

Dibi: I love having the opportunity to see Christian and Greyson spending time together. I’m not sure that I really hate anything in my life, being an adult is filled with responsibility but that’s just part of the deal.

—————————————————————————————

Hey Dibi, I’m a huge fan of your sister Joyce. And would love to relay a question on to her if that’s okay? My question is, who was her most formiddable rival and who does she think, then and now, has been underrated and overrated as a surfer (either male or female) and would she like to be a pro surfer competing in the WCT in this day and age? Thank you! - Uri Millanovich

Dibi: I called Joyce and asked her your questions. Here are her answers: “Margo Godfrey-Oberg.”, “No idea.” And “No, I think I surfed competitively in the best of times.”

—————————————————————————————

Hey Dibi, Well since CF won’t answer us maybe you will dibi, so here it is thrown back at him, lol, or you I should say! What’s something that you’ve been putting off but that you know you should get to it as soon as possible? - Dave Simmons

Dibi: I’m the wrong person to ask. I always do everything I don’t like to do first, to get off my plate, unlike most of the guys I know.

—————————————————————————————

Hey dibi, is it true that herb’s formed a band with Micky Munoz? I heard it through the grapevine!- Bill Wingman

Dibi: No, as funny as the idea sounds, there’s absolutely no truth to it.

—————————————————————————————

Hey Dibi I asked Christian but he didn’t answer does he go to Board & Brew in San Clemente right off of Pico? Coulda sworn I saw him there! - Chris Hallen

Dibi: Occasionally, our office is near there and he and Greyson stop by to get a sandwich. Hold the mayo!

—————————————————————————————

Hey Dibi, had Herbie not been a great surfer, do you think your boys would have found interests outside of surfing and skating? - Theresa Paulin

Dibi: It’s hard to say. I always lived on the beach and raised my kids there, it just happened naturally.

—————————————————————————————

Hey Dibi. How is Nathan doing? Please give him my regards about Sion. Thank you. - Lynn Mercutio

Dibi: It’s always difficult to lose a friend, and I’m sure it affected him deeply. It’s all so very sad.

—————————————————————————————

Hey Dibi! finally a page just for you! So I am really digging the art work with your painting and sculptures you have shared with us. Have you ever gotten into photography? - Steven Whimmer

Dibi: No, that’s Herb’s deal and there just doesn’t seem to be enough time to do it all, even though I’d love to.

—————————————————————————————

Hey Dibi, Whew thought I had missed an edition of hey dibi! Glad to see your still accepting questions for now. Have you thought about getting your own show on Sirius? I am serious! This is good, woman! - Cassie Berhman

Dibi: No, I don’t even know what that would entail. But I assume if there is enough of a following, sometime in the future, it wouldn’t be out of the question.

—————————————————————————————

Hey Dibi, PC or Mac? - Neil Morgan

Dibi: PC at work and I’m getting a new Mac for home.

—————————————————————————————

Hey Dibi, JFK’s assasination, 9/11, the space shuttle exploding, etc. What historical event has jolted you? (Is this question out of line for Christian’s website? Teehee.) - Toni Bustamante

Dibi: All of what you mentioned, and many more national and international events shocked me. And many personal events as well. But what’s going on right now; Japan, Libya, Afghanistan, total unrest in the Middle East, car bombs in Israel, the budget crisis, the price of oil and the astonishing fact that we hear about it all at once seems to keeps me in the present and it’s all very scary.

—————————————————————————————

Hey Dibi you’re beautiful! I can’t believe Greyson is your grandson! No way! You’re too young to be a grandma! Heck you’re too young to be Christian and Nathan’s mom! That being said how would you compare motherhood to grandmotherhood? Thanks for the opportunity! This is fun! - Ryan Silk

Dibi: Thank you. Unfortunately I didn’t get to see Greyson much while he was growing-up, but he now lives with me so the relationship we have is ours to create, it’s not filled with a lot of memories that sometimes cloud the present. I believe we’re both very respectful of each other and there isn’t the sense of entitlement from him that ones own children have with their parents, so we’re very lucky in that sense. I adore my sons, and certainly I feel that way about Greyson as well, and I’m quite sure the feeling is mutual.

—————————————————————————————

Hey Dibi your opinion please? Do you think it’s wrong if a surfer is not a complete surfer? I mean, if someone is really good at big wave riding and just getting tubed, is that okay? Or should he be working on doing those airs too? By the way tell christian he killed it and fuck those guys at Surfer Mag! - Paul Gillian

Dibi: I don’t think surfing should be filled with rules. There is no complete or incomplete surfer if you ask me, it was supposed to be fun!

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

Hey Dibi, Dang you sure are pretty. What is the story behind your default photo, Dibi? Looking through the mirror I call it… - Mark Bunn

Dibi: The mirror is on a door in my house that I painted, and Herb thought it would be fun to get a photo before going to my folks for Christmas. He’s always wanting to take pictures and I never liked having mine taken much, although I do love to dress-up, so occasionally there’s a compromise and it often turns out fun.

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

Hey Dibi, What’s the worst lie you ever told to your parents and what’s the worst lie that Christian and Nathan told you and Herbie as kids and thought they were gonna get away with but didnt’? LoL. - Jeff Mercer

Dibi: That I was going to school in Santa Barbara and ran away with Herbie instead. Christian was devilish but not much of a liar; he may have omitted the exact truth but neither he nor Nathan were big into lying. I tried to teach them early on that lying is one of the worst human characteristics.

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

Hey Dibi, im thinking of ditching the family and going to Tavarua by myself…..what should i do? - Tavarua Trippers

Dibi: Wow, I’m the wrong one to ask. To me family comes first, no matter what!

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

Hey Dibi, Ugh Dibi! I’m dating a surfer. He’s not even a professional surfer, just a guy who thinks about the surf nonstop and it’s driving me nuts! All our vacations are planned around where he wants to go surf. On days off,, he’s at the beach. On weekends, it’s the beach. Really hate to sound like the other woman…but I’m getting jealous over the beach! Am I being unfair? It is his passion and it’s healthy. - Quinn Shannon

Dibi: Guys are always going to play, that’s part of their nature. He has a job you said, so I’d be stoked that his hobby is relatively inexpensive and healthy. If you don’t want to go all the time, great, I don’t either. That’s why I have my own interests. But the beach life style was a great way to raise kids and I’m very grateful that the boys always had that in common with their dad.

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

Hey Dibi, Over the years I have always known the Fletchers as a San Clemente (Orange County) fixture. Have you guys ever considered living anywhere else? - Mike Abbott

Dibi: We’ve lived in Sun Valley, Idaho, and spent quite a bit of time in Hawaii. But it was easier to be in business here, and after all, we had two kids to look after so it was a decision that we made as being best for the family.

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

Hey Dibi, how do you like your eggs? - Brice Hannah

Dibi: I don’t care for eggs.

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

Hey Dibi, is it true that someone pulled a knife on Christian in Hawaii when he had that black mohawk? - Gregory Thor Weimar

Dibi: I haven’t heard the story, but I’ll ask him when he returns from Florida. He did lead a life on the edge, so anything’s possible.

“Hey Dibi, seems like you’ve always supported your kids in whatever they wanted to do. What’s something you put your foot down and said ‘NO!’ to?”

Thursday, February 24th, 2011

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

Christian Fletcher Painting by Dibi Fletcher

—————————————————————————————

Does Nathan still Weld dibi? - Yeman Stouch

Dibi: Yes, he’s made me some very interesting pieces. I think he’s quite talented.

—————————————————————————————

Hi Dibi what is your take on organized religion? - Thomas Povey

Dibi: I think everyone wants to feel better about themselves and the world, and if joining a group of like-minded people is for you, great.

—————————————————————————————

Hey Dibi! I remember Nathan used to take flying license right? Did he ever get his pilot’s license.

Dibi: We started the lessons when he was 15, and he didn’t complete them then, but he came by last summer and got all the books, so I assume he’s wanting to start back up again. I’m stoked for him.

and here’s my #2 question seems like you’ve always supported your kids in whatever they wanted to do. What’s something you put your foot down and said “NO!” to? - Craig Osumi

Dibi: That’s hard, of course there have been stupid things that any young kid might do that I would have said no to; water balloon launchers out my Mom’s second story at the highway, etc. But anything that was interesting and exciting and pushed them to develop new skills, I’ll help anyway I can.

—————————————————————————————

Hi Dibi, am I crazy for being a huge fan of not only you Dibi but the whole fam Fletcher damily? Lol! - Jimmy Gould

Dibi: No crazier then any of the rest of us,I guess. It’s all just fun.

—————————————————————————————

Hey Dibi, how did you guys meet/know Annie Leibovitz. Really rad photo shoot with Malcom! - Ernie Bruhner

Dibi; My friend who worked with us for many years was friends with Lauren Hutton and Malcom. We were invited to the photo shoot and the rest is in the picture.

—————————————————————————————

Dibi, did you guys have nathan and christian seaparted by 5 years on purpose? just wonderen! - Mike Clancy

Dibi: Yes, I thought it was nice to let Christian get a chance to be a baby before having to grow up and be an older brother. He was quite a terror; but when Nathan came along he was a great help and he and Nathan had a grand time together.

—————————————————————————————

Hi Dibi, you are a beaut! I’m sure many of CF and NF’s friends had crushes on you! Is it true you went to CF’s school and embarrassed him with hot pants on? - Gregory Ross

Dibi: It wasn’t hot pants; it was a red leather mini skirt, fish net hose, purple suede boots, long rhinestone earrings, and I had pink stripes in my hair. Obviously, it worked because I never had to be a parent escort again, and Christian and I laugh about it to this day.

—————————————————————————————

Hi Dibi and Christian, thank you for adding me! I love all you Fletchers but Greyson puts a smile on my face! Can you ask Greyson what he wants for his bday? :P - Jodie Kulver

Dibi: Probably to skate a great bowl, he’s a guy!

—————————————————————————————

Dibi! Ask your husband Herbie why he drops in on everyone!!! All the time!!!! - Rick Keegan

Dibi: Because he can!!!

—————————————————————————————

Dibs, I see you out but never in the water, why not? - Harris Puget

Dibi: Because I don’t go in unless the water’s really warm.

—————————————————————————————

any big wave escapades from nate so far this year? danny montoya

Dibi: He’s been riding huge waves. We’ve posted some photos on FB, and I’m sure they’re all over the internet if you want to search. He seems fearless.

—————————————————————————————

NO Fair CF you suck! Answer your own damn questions! ROFL! Ok fine! Ii’ll ask tu madre! Dibi Fletcher! What is something weird YOU and CF like to eat! - Tim O.

Dibi: Christian lived in Bali for some time and ate everything, UGH!!! I’m very health-conscious and eat very light.

—————————————————————————————

What’s up Dibi! Tell Greyson that I’m putting his vote in for Skater of the Year even though his name’s not on the ballot! Stupid fuckers! Greyson Fletcher all the way! - Kevin Aragon

Dibi: Cool, I’ll tell him. I think he’s got great style.

—————————————————————————————

That Fast Eddie interview was an A ticket ride! Any more? - T.L.

Dibi: You bet, I loved him as a jokester. I don’t think many people see him in that light, and I thought it was hilarious.

—————————————————————————————

Hey Dibi! Do you have any tattoos yourself? - Tianna Rocha

Dibi: No, I never thought they were for me. I love art and my taste evolves; I never wanted to be stuck with something I’d grown out of.

—————————————————————————————

Is it insulting that I see you and Herbie more like the artsy folk rather than the surf folks? Love all the imagery and artwork you guys have on your sites! BIG BIG FAN! - Stewart Riggs

Dibi: Of course not, that’s how we see ourselves.

—————————————————————————————

Hi Dibi, how has it been with CF back and sober? Do you think this is finally it? - Bob “Malibu” Grady

Dibi: It’s wonderful, I’m grateful everyday. I certainly hope so for all our sakes, but I guess time will tell. It sure seems good.

—————————————————————————————

What do you think is Nathan’s longevity when most pro surfers his age are now pretty much on the back burner? - Kai Jensen

Dibi: Big wave riding is like an entirely different sport and it extends the careers longevity. He’s still amazing, so I guess we’ll just wait and see what’s up his sleeve for Act II.

—————————————————————————————

Hey Dibi, will you be posting any more photos of yourself taken by Bruce Weber? Thank you. - Gabby Lopez

Dibi: Maybe in the future, I don’t like to post personal photos he’s taken of us over the years, I feel it’s infringing on our friendship and I’d never want to do that.

—————————————————————————————

Hi Dibi, will you guys reissue or sell again those trade cards? I have 3 (archy, christian and gary elkerton) and would like to add to my collection! - Sam Davis

Dibi: Herb and I talked about it recently, we didn’t come up with an answer but maybe I’ll revisit the conversation and see if there’s a market.

—————————————————————————————

Dibi, can you ask Greyson a question for me, what trick he is trying to learn and ha been the hardest for him to conquer? - Trent Whitber

Dibi: I’m sorry, Greyson’s in Japan and will be back in a few days; I’ll ask him then, so please repost your question and I’ll answer it in the next column.

—————————————————————————————

Outside of the typical surf and skate labels/brands, who would you, Dibi, not Christian, but you who would YOU want Christian to be sponsored by?

Dibi: He looked fabulous in Versace when Bruce Weber used to shoot him. I think it should be something really unpredictable. Ralph Lauren’s Purple Label perhaps? I love the absurd in life, so I think that might be a good fit.

—————————————————————————————

What depresses you Dibi Fletcher? I mean really downright fucking depress you that you want to cry?!!! - Marcus Phenbam

Dibi: My kid doing drugs!!! It’s the most heartbreaking experience a parent can live through. It’s so senseless.

—————————————————————————————

Dibi, many years ago, I truly loved and admired the artword (ads) you did for Christian Fletcher. The image of Christian with the mohawk, the image of him surfing with black trunks on, etc. Could you please post these beautiful paintings again or any more of that kind that you did? And do you continue to do this medium? - Chara Rowlin

Dibi: Thanks, that’s very nice. I haven’t been painting a lot recently. I’ve been doing a lot more writing, but hope to get some time here pretty soon to get back in the studio.

—————————————————————————————

Hi Dibi: So real quick, favorite scent, favorite memory, favorite drink, favorite snack, favorite person, favorite conversation, favorite hobby, and favorite person to hate. Look forward to your answers! - Steve Phillips

Dibi: Prada, a million favorite memories (I’ve had a long life), water, I’m not much of an eater, I can’t just pick one favorite person, the one I’m engaged at the time, ditto, there’s a few on the list - and I hope you don’t know them and if you do, you hate them also so there’s no use to mention them by name.

—————————————————————————————

Okay Im’a gonna put you on the hot spot Dibi. What do you think is a move that Nate and Christian do really well and what do you think even after all these years, they can still work on? Oh i’m talking surfing! - Brian

Dibi: They both do great airs. Nathan’s doing things in big waves that are amazing. They’re having fun and being respectful what more could I want???

—————————————————————————————

Hey Dibi, nothing tastes better than the first bite of an apple or a slice of cantaloupe. What’s something simple that you take delight in? A fruity question from a fruit, so yes, dear, what tantalizes your taste buds? - Eric Parker

Dibi: Casaba melon is rub-your-feet-together fabulous.

—————————————————————————————

Have u ever been to a Turkish prison? - Calculatą Decimation Noce

Dibi: No, I’ve thankfully managed to stay out of all prison systems.

—————————————————————————————

Dibi, were you a good kid, stubborn kid, bad kid, complacent kid. I gotta know what kind of kid eventually turned out to be CF’s mom! Ha ha ! - Paul Stewart

Dibi: I never lied, cheated or stole anything. I was very determined to do what I wanted. I was bright, hated school and authority. I ran away early and have tried to live honestly with my choices.

—————————————————————————————

Dibi Christian asked us about selling out, what do you think is a sell out and is selling out all so bad? Of course CF didn’t bother to answer his own question sooo - Brett Fischer

Dibi: I really don’t know what is selling out. By the time you’re my age, you better figure out how to buy in.

—————————————————————————————

Dibi, the Bible Bowl??? CF does bible study? LOL say it ain’t so! LMAO!!! - Larry Nohr

Dibi: No, he doesn’t do bible study; he and Greyson are lucky enough to be invited there to skate.

—————————————————————————————

Hi Dibi, Herbie, Christian, Greyson and Nathan: Do you guys ever all just sit down and trip on what a wild adventure your lives have been? - Scott Kroeger

Dibi: Sometimes, and it’s really fun and interesting as each one of us tends to bring up a different memory that we get to laugh about. Sharing your history and getting to see it from different perspectives is always amazing. I feel very fortunate.

—————————————————————————————

Here is a question from yesteryear, at the time when your sister Joyce Hoffman was at the peak of her surfing career, who were her sponsors? - Daniel Lumont

Dibi: It was so different then, I remember Leland Triumph Motors gave her a car to use when she traveled to different countries, as did Honda Motorcycles. She got her boards from Hobie. She received a small bit of money and product for Bonnie Bell Cosmetics and was also in their ads. Random things like that, but it wasn’t anything like now.

—————————————————————————————

hi dibi, John From Cincinnati. Was the character played by Rebecca DeMornay based on you? Which of the characters were the most like their counterpart (you, CF, Herbie, etc) and the most like their counterparts? - Thomas Allison

Dibi: It was never supposed to be about us, and I really don’t see any similarities between the characters and the members of my family.

—————————————————————————————

Hey Dibi, ha ha, this is so cool asking Christian and Nathan’s mom questions. So I read on Stab that interview with Nathan, was that all fabricated? If not, is there still sibling drama? Man, me and my brothers have really gone at it and have had blown out fights so I can relate! - Nick Mochino

Dibi: I believe Christian and Nathan have really come to a better understanding and have started to rebuild their friendship, and I’m stoked for that. Bruce [Irons] will never have the chance, so call your brothers - they’re the only ones you’ve got.

You Guys Keep Asking, She Keeps Answering!

Monday, March 8th, 2010

Here’s another installment of “Hey Dibi”…the series where you ask my mom anything…and I do mean, ANYTHING, and she’ll give you the God’s honest truth of what she thinks. Don’t be afraid to bring up anything and don’t be afraid to hear what she has to say. Mom never holds back!

Oh, and check out this photo. Pretty cool, huh? Bruce Weber took it at my grandparent’s house. It’s one of my favorites of me and my mom.

Hey Dibi,

Do you enjoy being a mother? Or better yet, do you enjoy being Christian’s mother?

- Mark Moises

Dibi: It’s been an amazing adventure; extreme highs and lows and everything in-between. What a LIFE!!!

——————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

Dibi, hello! What is it like running your own company, Astrodeck, with your husband? Do you get tired of working with each other?

- Evelyn Kinski

Dibi: I’ve never worked for anyone else, so I can’t compare it with other jobs. But I think we work well together. Some of it’s quite interesting, some of it sucks, but I’m grateful to have had the opportunity to work in an environment where we can be creative and do some fun wacky things. Like, how many people get the chance to do something as bizarre as this? Like, who the hell cares what I think?!? Do I get tired of working with each other? That would be DUH!!! But after so many years of living and working together, I can’t imagine it any other way…and some of it’s pure comedy!!!

——————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

What virtue do you think is overrated and one you stand by fiercely?

- Patrick O’Malley

Dibi: All that hand-slapping “bro” bullshit…so phony…but get in trouble and most of those guys are gone like the wind. I’ve always tried to be a FRIEND and that means no matter what!!!

——————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

There is this gross, ugly, smelly Mexican that won’t stop coming by my house and calling me. I think he might have stolen my son’s iPhone. What to do? He thinks I’m into that.

- Lisa Humphreys

Dibi: Get a hand gun and a rottweiler. Like, really!!!

——————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

What really pisses you off?

- Senton Crowley

Dibi: There’s kind of a list, but, if I had to choose…maybe one thing related to business, I hate being treated like the little woman. That international customers want to only talk to Herbie, what a joke. You know, like most chicks, it’s the little stuff that blows my mind.

——————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

Congrats to you and Herbie! You guys are great! What’s the secret to your success?

- Henry Mous

Go to your corners! Most women want to talk about what’s brothering them but when I’m feeling great, all’s well. When I’m tried, just like everyone else, life’s a bitch. I go ride my bike, go to my own room, where ever to be alone and relax and rejuvenate and everything feels much better. It’s not Herb’s responsibility to make me feel good, it’s mine. I don’t know if it was personal info you wanted or business, but if I’m not clear you can always write and ask again.

——————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

Admit it, Dibi, you smoke the herb right? LOL, it’s cool, you can tell me.

- Hector Bartiza

Dibi: Oh, there are a few things in life that I like to leave to the imagination.

——————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

Did the Fletchers vote for Obama?

- Jeff Walden

Dibi; Hope and change…um!

——————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

What do you love about your sons? What do you love about Nathan and what do you love about Christian?

- Megan Rocha

Dibi: I learned a valuable lesson years ago from a very dear friend of mine about love. It’s not how you feel about them but about how they make you feel about yourself. That’s the gift. I adore them both and they’re so different but when they say “Hey Mom…” and they’re talkin’ to me, it’s GRAND…

——————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

Dibi were you a conventional mother or a hippie? I do not know much about you but for you to answer questions for CF’s site makes you pretty cool in my book. Love the answers you give too. Thanks for the laughs!

- David Paulsen

Dibi: Well, I guess I started out as a hippie. I ran away from home with Herb when I was sixteen. Life was great, the beach was perfect, the waves in front of the house were unreal. Then life started to kinda get in the way, you know, responsibility has a tendency to do that. WOW, kids. So it was time to grow up. Christian started goin’ off pretty early and someone had to be there to be counted on. Is that conventional? I don’t think much in my life would be looked at as conventional, and I don’t think I could have enjoyed Christian so much if I had delusions of being June Cleaver.

——————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

When is the angriest you’ve been with Christian?

- William Bweller

Dibi: Waiting in a hotel room in Tokyo for him to show up when we were scheduled to leave the country. Man, was I pissed! He strolled in with, like, one minute to spare and couldn’t understand why I was uptight. He had been out all night getting tattooed!

——————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

If Christian and Nathan were in a contest who are you cheering for?

- Dustin Hibbs

Dibi: Either. It’s not going to make a difference to me, and if it make a difference to them, that’s their stuff to work out.

——————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

Hey there. Where did the name Astrodeck come from? Any meaning behind it or just a name?

- Thomas Creager

Dibi: It was 1976, and everything was sleek and cool. We thought that “Astrodeck” was a great name for something that was the last part of a perfect-shaped surfboard - where your foot is planted for maximum torque in your turns. Christian used it to launch air, so it really ended up pretty okay.

——————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

The Fletcher’s make San Clemente. So what do you like about San clemente? It has been your home for years, yes?

- Rodrigo Parga

Dibi: I love running on the beach and riding my bike, and my family are all close-by, so it’s always home.

Herbie Takes Manhattan

Wednesday, February 24th, 2010

Herbie Fletcher presented by Brucennial 2010: Miseducation

It’s probably a conservative assumption to say that you probably know a little somethin’ somethin’ about Herbie Fletcher.

Legendary surfer, superior waterman, raging jet skier, surf traction pad mogul, crafty shaper, Wave Warriors film magnate, husband to the fiercely creative and independent Dibi (Hoffman) Fletcher, father to flying alchemists Christian and Nathan Fletcher. Blah, blah, blah, the list goes on. And on and on. Seriously, if it involves innovation, water, and surf, it probably has Herbie’s scent on it. And it would take an extra two days to even slightly dwell on his past involvements with the wakeboarding world, the 1984 U.S. Olympic team, modeling with Versace, and his friendship with Julian Schnabel, Bruce Weber and Ingrid Sischy of Interview Magazine. Just to name a few of Herbie’s list of accomplishments and contacts, mind you. But, no. No, no, no. We’re not going to get into all of that.

Because whether you may have known a lot about all of this or only a little bit of some of this, what most of you probably didn’t acknowledge or realize is that Herbie Fletcher is also a talented and gifted artist. What started as a faint teenage hobby has grown into a gradual and passionate adult persuasion. (More about Herbie and Julian Schnabel and the Blind Girl Surf series artboards in another blog.)

Whether it’s on surfboards or on canvas - whatever type of medium and style - the ever-expressive Herbie splashes it. And let’s not kid ourselves, he always makes a big splash. So much so that now Herbie and his artwork will be featured at the Whitney Museum under the direction and presentation of Vito Schnabel (Julian’s son).

Brucennial 2010: Miseducation will have it’s gala opening on Thursday, February 25th. The event will premiere at 6 PM and is expected to last until 2 AM. Obviously, those New York art types know how to party until the wee hours of the morning. This first night is open to the public and will run until April 4th, 2010.

Herbie is one of a few select artists who will present his lauded pieces up for viewing and purchase. So if you’re in the New York area, take a go at it. And if you see Herbie, say “hi”. We hear it’s going to be snowing big-time while Herb’s in NY; we hope he puts on a little more than just a pair of Astrodeck sandals.

Below is the official press release. Have yourself a gander and then check it out in person.

————————————————————————————–

PRESS RELEASE FOR BRUCENNIAL 2010: MISEDUCATION

I think the Brucennial is like—in the life of the people—it’s like an anniversary in the life of people. The people, they need moments to celebrate themselves and that’s what a Brucennial is. The Brucennial happens every two years, or really, you know, whenever we feel like it, and it’s a moment of celebration of the history of the people—of the reason why the people exist, of the nature of the people. Again, it’s like a person. If not there would be a flux of time without an interruption and I think that as people, people are live entities and they need to have some moments where they recognize this liveliness of their existence.

- Francesco Bonami

SoHo: The Bruce High Quality Foundation is pleased to announce the opening of The BRUCENNIAL 2010: Miseducation on February 25th at 6pm.

Since its founding, the BRUCENNIAL has evolved into The Bruce High Quality Foundation’s signature public program, as well as the most important survey of contemporary art in the world ever. Following the triumphant successes of BRUCENNIAL08: Doing it Again (Bushwick) and BRUCENNIAL09: Smithumenta (Carol Gardens), BRUCENNIAL2010: Miseducation brings together 420 artists from 911 countries working in 666 discrete disciplines to reclaim education as part of an artist’s ongoing practice beyond the principals of any one institution or experience.

The BRUCENNIAL will be housed at 350 West Broadway. Additionally, BHQFU projects will be on view at RECESS at 41 Grand Street.

The BRUCENNIAL is presented by The Bruce High Quality Foundation in collaboration with Vito Schnabel. 350 West Broadway is provided courtesy of Aby Rosen.
