Yes, it's a trend that's beginning to catch on around Sydney as well.
A kind of nouveau chic that has moved away for all the past traditions, probably the most telling feature of them is that you will struggle to find any large banners or posters of the 4 biggys: Ripped out a curly one, Bill with a bong, Quickie behind the silver shed & I think I'm about to Hurl.
It's not that they not sold, it's just that they're usually there in only very small numbers and you're far more likely to see brands that you've never seen before.
One local one is just as happy to sell you a coffee and have you sit in the shop having a look around and a bit of a chin wag.
And why not? when you consider what you're usually confronted with when you go into most Mall surf shops these days.
BTW, very nice boards in those pics.
