Magic Johnson Wears Body Glove


Body Glove is celebrating a bit of our 1980's history over on Facebook this week. Become a fan and check out some classic photos and videos this week. We did some amazing stuff that will give you a good chuckle. To kick things off on a high note and to show some love for the world champion Los Angeles Lakers as they enter the playoffs we thought we would post a photo of Laker legend Magic Johnson battling with the Larry Bird while sporting his Body Glove knee braces. Love the Magic Man!!!

Holly Beck and her surf retreat guests give back at the dump in Nicaragua

When I started my Surf and Yoga Retreat in Nicaragua, I wanted giving back to be a key component. See below for photos and a short video from our day at the dump.






After hurricane Mitch, the Nicaraguan government relocated newly homeless villagers next to the dump. Without land to farm or any way to sustain themselves they took to scavenging. Anything still with life in it is put to use. Bottles and cans are sold for pennies per pound for recycling. Clean water, like most other resources, is scarce.




 Despite their unfortunate situation, the people are beautiful.
A church group sets up a food kitchen at the local school once a week to feed community members who show up with bowls, buckets, anything to hold the little bit of food. The day we visited the meal consisted of chicken noodle soup, with chicken heads and feet as meat. The kids made a line, said a prayer, and were grateful for the food.
We brought clothing to donate and plenty of smiles to share. It was an important reminder for all of us of how good we have it.




For a short video clip of the experience, click play below:

Help us feed these kids.

Watch veteran champ Rusty Malinoski show rookies Harley Clifford and Bob Soven the ropes of being a top-level professional rider.
