SES stopped by to see some of the Spyder Surf Fest Saturday in Hermosa Beach, a big event that included the Surfers Walk of Fame, the LA Surf Awards, a fashion show and live music.
We also took photos inside Spyder Surf, one of the industry’s premiere accounts, to see how brand presentations are evolving at the store and noticed several interesting changes.
