The World Wake Surf Championships, taking place Friday, Aug. 18 through Sunday, Aug. 20 at Konocti Harbor Resort & Spa, is a stop on the Togo”s Surf Art Tour that features the work of world-renowned artist Drew Brophy.
Brophy”s original works of art appear on surfboards, T-shirts greeting cards, beach towels, fabrics, tattoos, skim boards and skateboards. Brophy is a prolific artist who averages 100 new pieces each year, and whose custom-painted surfboards are coveted by celebrities, musicians and art collectors worldwide.
The tour coincides with the release of Togo”s new Bocana Beef sandwich, named after a famous estuary surf break near San Jose Del Cabo in Mexico. With a Volkswagen Vanogon outfitted with Brophy”s work, the surf art tour is stopping at beaches and sporting events up and down the California coast, giving beachgoers a chance to see Brophy”s artwork up close and to try the new Bocana Beef sandwich. Additionally, beachgoers can test out a surfboard by shaper Barry Vandermeulen.
The World Wake Surf Championships, part of BoardStock XI at Konocti, is among several stops this month on the Togo”s Surf Art Tour. For more information about the tour, visit www.togos.com.
