Hi Dibi. Does Herbie ever help you answer these questions? Sometimes I can hear him when your’e doing your dibi side interviews. Ha ha. – Ritchie Van Duyn

————————————————————————————

Hi Dibi I have a request please. In Surfer Magazine there was a great interview with Nathan, something about Coming out of the Shadows. In that article, there was a wonderful photo of Nathan holding his board and standing beside, what I realized since your last Hey Dibi piece, as one of your own sculptures of the mannequins. I’ve since lost that magazine and have been trying to replace it. Would it be possible if you reposted that photo. It is my favorite of Nathan of all time. Young, aggressive surfer next to a beautiful work of art. Thank you very much. – Emma Marinovich from Newport Coast, CA

Hi Dibi! You guys have the best Facebook pages! Love waking up and reading what’s new on that crazy mind of Christian’s! He’s to the point and wicked funny! Let him know I think he’s the best!

————————————————————————————

Hey Dibi. Big fan of the sandals. Think about doing some sneaks? Itd be cool! – Danny Montgomery

Hey Dibi,

Love your style. May I ask if you went to college and if you did, which one? - Mark Finney

Dibi: Thanks! No, I didn’t go to  college; I ran away from home with Herb when I was 16.

———————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

What happened to ballroom dancing? You rock Mama Fletcher! - Josiah

Dibi: It was a great time; lots of rhinestones, feathers and cha-cha-chaaa. But I got really into writing and life took an unexpected turn into an HBO adventure.

———————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

What is your favorite movie, book, color, song, past time, drink, dessert? - Theresa Cooper

Dibi: I don’t really have one special favorite, but I’ll try to give you an idea. I like the ’40s classics when women were dames. Fiction, the authors who wrote the books the movies were adapted from like James M. Cain, Raymond Chandler, Dashell Hammett, etc.. Their dialogue was tough, smart and spare. Non-fiction, I read everything; from spiritual to political history. For color, I like black - for the same reason I like the writer’s dialogue. For songs, I like early blues and Jimi Hendrix was the soundtrack of my youth and I think it’s certainly relevant today. Past time, I’m kinda working like crazy right now, so I’ll have to get back to you on that. I drink water and don’t eat dessert. And, girl, I’ve just bored myself to death. I’m sure your eyes are glassed over, and I’m sure you’re sliding into a state of unconsciousness by now.

———————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

Fletcher family come to Japan when? Snowboard extreme with Nathan in 1990s I did! - Kenji Sakamoto

Dibi: I’m not sure on the dates. It was a very bizarre trip but lots of fun.

———————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

Great to see your grandson Greyson being blown up. He tears it up! My question is, how do you think Christian measures up to being a dad compared to how Herbie was as a dad? - Baked Smithy

Dibi: I don’t measure. They’re so different personally, and the situations were nothing the same, so I think the smartest way to look at life is for what it is and not judge. No good ever comes from that as far as I can see. I’m grateful we’re all together.

———————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

How would you define your life with one word, and to countact that, in one paragraph? - Ray L.

Dibi: Blessed! I’ve been married for at least 100 years, my sons are healthy, my grandson is living with me. Business is tough as hell, but we all laugh everyday. That’s success!

———————————————————————————

Hey Dib,

I really like cats of all kinds, do you? Do you have any pets? - TNT

Dibi: I’ve always adored cats. But CF, Herb and Greyson are plenty to take care of right now, and if it shits and eats it seems to come under the category of my job, so my plate at present is full.

———————————————————————————

Hey Dibi!

If you knew you only had one more day on earth, what would you do? Name it all! - Jensen Montgomery

Dibi: If I had a magic wand or something, perhaps I could give you some grandiose plan, but as I’m just me, I’d do exactly what I’m doing.

———————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

If you had to, where else would you live besides San Clemente, California? - Gina Gomez

Dibi: I’ve been able to live in a couple of pretty great places…I’m happy here right now. But I guess as long as I can take the tribe any place, it would be cool.

———————————————————————————

Hey Dibi (and Herbie),

Ever think of publishing your own magazine? I know you guys have many, many photos and a lot of material! What about “The D-side” for online publication or even print perhaps? - Gary Ellis

Dibi: I think we’re in the process, don’t you?

———————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

What is something very passive that Christian is involved in? I know he likes to race bikes, surf, skate, etc.. But what’s something mellow that he likes to do? - Howie Johnston

Dibi: Christian likes to play Facebook poker!

———————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

“Hey Dibi” is AWESOME! The D-Side is awesome! Interviewing Greyson WOULD BE EVEN MORE AWESOME! Is this in the works? - Connor Watters

Dibi: You bet!!!

———————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

What is your real name and do you have any tattoos? – Nicole

Dibi: Debra is my given name but the only one who’s ever called me that is my Dad because he can’t say Dibi. And, no, thankfully I don’t have to be constantly reminded of how stupid I’ve been.

———————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

Greyson can skate his ass off. I was just up around Santa Cruz and San Jose. 4 sweet parks up there that will make the hair on the back of your neck pop with all the pools and pipes any one person could handle. Is Greyson pro or am at this stage in the game? He rips is all I can say. Keep the photos coming. P.S. Did you guys shoot these shots? - Chance

Dibi: What’s the difference nowadays? Greyson’s skating great and really enjoying it. Herb shot the photos and he and a couple of other friends shot the more recent footage.

———————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

I read once that Nathan said in a mag interview that you ruled with an iron fist and Christian said the only thing he was scared of in life was you. What is your reaction to this? - Mike Rogan

Dibi: They’re so full of it!

———————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

Greyson is a SICK SKATER!!! But no surfing footage? Come on! What’s up with that? - Caleb Howdigan

Dibi: It’s on the way.

———————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

Totally loved your artwork, “I See Buddhas Everywhere”! Who are you inspirations and who’s style do you like as far as art goes? - Jaxon

Dibi: I’m inspired by everything and enjoy all kinds of styles.

———————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

Appreciated the post about Marvin. Knew he was one of the original Wave Warriors. How far back do you guys go with him? Rip bruddah. - Bob Tyson

Dibi: I knew Marvin as a teenager, so that’s quite a few years ago.

———————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

Anytime soon you guys are gonna revive epic, fucking balls-out shit again like you did with Wave Warriors and A.S.S (Adrenaline Surf Series)? Fuck Taylor Steele faggot shit! - Ivan P.

Dibi: We’re working on a documentary, along with a zillion other things that we hope people will find interesting. I think surfing needs the sand back in it!

———————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

So, ok, you guys don’t want anything to do with “John From Cincinatti”. But would you guys do something again with mainstream Hollywood? Like maybe a movie? - Johnny Klintney

Dibi: Only if I had some control.

———————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

I reread CF’s “The Human Touch” from 1990 or something. He lists hummus and beets as his fave food. Is he a vegetarian, Dibi? - Michael Dante

Dibi: He was raised as one, but out on his own he has made other choices.

———————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

I’m looking forward to more D-Side! You gonna interview Herbie or Nathan for that? - T.S.

Dibi: I’m sure they’ll all eventually have their say.

———————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

Back in the early ’70s there was a small bikini company, I believe they were called Bohemialoque (spelling?), and I thought you had maybe modeled for them with your sister Joyce. Did you? Just curious. And thanks! -Ryan Cueller

Dibi: No, Joyce and I had a typically hateful sister relationship as youngsters.

———————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

Was there ever a company or sponsor that you thought Nathan and Christian should have rode for and represented but they turned down? And btw, I think you’re doing a great job, Dibi. Thanks for the insight and laughs! -Kersten Lyndsay

Dibi: I tried to let them make their own choices, so they had the chance to learn from them instead of blaming me if things didn’t go well. Wow, great plan in theory. Things didn’t always work out so well, but so much in life sounds better on paper.

———————————————————————————

Hey there Dibi,

Did you ever feel left out because it was Boys Only Club? Or did they include you in everything? By “they” I mean Herbie, Christian, and Nathan. - SB Local

Dibi: Left out, sometimes one could only hope. I’m like the glue, a necessity that they all count on.

———————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

What drives you absoltely NUTS? Angry? Pissed off?! - Bill Carlsson

Dibi: Not much anymore, what’s the use it just totally screws up your day and doesn’t change things one bit.

———————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

Does Gavin Beschen still ride for Astrodeck? He rips! - Sandy Grossman

Dibi: Yes, just saw him the other day and he said he’d be back soon and do an interview for the D-Side.

———————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

What do you look forward to 10 years from now? Where do you see Christian and Nathan and Herbie and yourself 10 years from now? - Cara Albert

Dibi: Hopefully I’ll still be working, writing, making art and interviewing people I find interesting. I think that the guys will probable be doing the same as well.

———————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

What are you very proud of when it comes to Nathan and CF that has NOTHING to do with surfing and skating? - Nance Hutchinson

Dibi: Their ability to be my friend.

———————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

Yo waddup Dibi, here’s a question. I noticed a lot of Greyson on this site lately. That’s pretty cool. Always thought he should be more seen out there with his skillz. Who are his sponsors right now? - Tony Jimenez

Dibi: Right now he’s pretty much self-sponsored and having the time of his life surfing and skating with his Dad.

———————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

Do you read everything written about your family or do you ignore it for the most part? - Scott Schneider

Dibi: I mostly ignore it. Most journalists want to talk all sorts of mad shit about you to make a name for themselves, so I usually don’t bother.

———————————————————————————

Hey Dibi,

Was Christian the type of kid who liked bedtime stories? - Shawna Handley

Dibi: Yes, I read to him and Nathan every night when they were young.
