Body Glove 60th anniversary

 

I am sure you have heard of "Body Glove" before - Wetsuits, Boardshorts, Bikinis, Wakeboards, Waterskis...... But how many of you have heard of Brad "Tiki Shark" Parker? If I were to answer that question, 2 months ago? A: Brad whoooo? But somehow, I got caught up in all this "Tiki Mug" fanatic "stuff" , whether I wanted to or not. I actually love it now - whole new craze for me. (I will post a little more about that below) . 

Since I am "name dropping" let me add a few more... Wyland Galleries, Henry Kapono, Surf legends and Body Glove Team Riders will also be in attendance

 Body Gloves huge 60th anniverseray party is going to be here in Kona, and the fact that they commissioned Brad "Tiki Shark" Parker (the guy I never heard of before 2 months ago) Only to learn he is the "Guru" of Tiki Mugs, the "Man", the one that BODY GLOVE chose,  to design 3 new Tiki Mugs, that will be released at this party - must see if you are a Tiki person.

This is also a chance for me to put in a plug in for my good friends at "Tiki J's Lamps" , because Jay talked to Abbas, and they let him get 3 mugs - pre-release, and make some Tiki Lamps out of them. (and to think I had the famous Jay Shelfow of Tiki J's make me a tiki lamp recently) 

So,  should I post my lamp here, or Brad Tiki Shark Parkers, mugs, converted into lamps, for the party's photo?

Its my blog - right? ok, .........  I wil post Brads mugs: These will be on sale at the event also, but remember, these are "one off" hand made lamps from Brad Parkers mugs. 

A huge Mahalo goes out to Abbas Hassan, who really helped put this whole deal together.
