The guys we choose to sponsor are all major names in Texas surfing. Their input has been instrumental in stepping up the performance level of our shortboards. When you can voice your needs to Mike, and you surf as hard as our guys, you can expect good results. Morgan Faukner, Zach May, Justin Jalufka, and Kyle Ferris are all ripping on MDC's and RPQ's. We've seen their contest results improve dramatically since teaming up with MDC. This year in 07/08 Zach, Justin and Kyle all had phenomenal finishes at TSSC, while Morgan did alot of WQS events. Zach finished 2nd at Surfing America's National Champs at Hungtington Beach, Sept 08. Kyle Ferris trained with the US Team with Coach Joey Buran in Newport, CA late Set/Oct 08. We added Bubba Ganain this year who will be doing the VQS on the west coast. While our guys travel quite a bit and Morgan resides part of the year on the North Shore, we like to keep this page local, so all these pics are of Texas, except for one shot of Kyle Ferris training with the US Team: top left on his pictorial, photo: Lance Smith

10 yr old Nathna Stolley is the next promising young talent for MDC

Alicia Yaklin

This is Alicia's first year with TGSA. We have surfed with her for over a year, so it seemd natural for her to sign on. Super stoked because she is undefeated this year.
