Here are some pics of Greyson tearing up random skate parks around Orange County. He’s been ripping it up, and some cougars are on him now to teach their groms how to skate. Pretty sick. Private skate lessons, anyone?

Training hard for August. Boxing, kick-boxing, golf, tennis, curling, surfing, skating, eating healthier. I’m not gonna go down without a fight. Things are gonna get epic. Stay tuned for more because I know you guys are confused as fuck as to what the hell it is I’m talking about.

Tennis, anyone? Christian Fletcher is always a "raquet".

Christian Fletcher: Eye of the Tiger

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.

Making Mama Proud

But it all comes from good intentions, I guess. I mean, I know that now. I didn’t realize a lot of that back in the day when I was younger, and I’m still learning to take advice or at least have a little more patience in taking the time to listen or hear what people have to say.

And I think my mom’s a pretty smart cookie. She’s fucking funny, honest, sassy and ain’t afraid to tell it like it is. Whether it’s telling me off or telling off my dad or my brother Nathan, the chick doesn’t mess around. And I don’t mean just telling us off in a negative way. I mean, she always has valid thoughts and opinions, words of wisdom , and the most random facts all stored in her mental file. So I was thinking, you know what? Many of you write and ask for advice - some of you guys write serious stuff and a lot of you write stupid bullshit stuff. All in good fun, I know. But my point is, you guys want to banter and you want to hear what’s up and seem to want concrete answers on certain things, so who better to throw in their two cents in regards to your questions than my mom, Dibi Fletcher?

And let’s be honest here…do you really want to get advice from me? Fuck, I just might make your problem even worse.

So, fuckers, here it is. The “Dear Christian” section on here will now be “She is Dibi: Hear Her Roar” from now on. And we’re serious. Ask her anything. You won’t get a more brutally - yet humorous - straight forward answer the way you would from Dib. Don’t be shy. If you leave skid marks on your underwear and want to know what kind of laundry detergent to use, ask her. If you’re in financial despair and feel suicidial, ask her how to get out of that rut. Ask her about anything and everything. She may not have the best answer but she’ll definitely give you an answer.

After all, she is Dibi. Hear her roar.

The first installment, down below.

Hey Dibi,

It burns when I pee and I think she lied about her age. What do I do?

- TJ Harris

Hey Dibi,
