Deal Alert! Rock Bottom Boardies!

Summer's in full swing, we've got some SW swell running, the water is finally creeping up to 70 degrees, and the forecast models are showing sun this weekend at the beach! You know what time it is? Cheap boardshort time! The beach is chock full of chicks and they're packed in like sardines. So you need to have a fresh pair of boardies on. But you say the recession, stock market, and gas prices are bleeding you dry? Well that's why North County Surf is here to help. Scouring the world high and low for deals so you don't have to. Here's what we have on tap today:
The legendary DC brand is making boardshorts now (with a little help from parent company Quiksilver) and they've got this good looking piece for around $19. Click here (DC) to grab it asap.
Another parent helping it's child is Burton with their Analog line of surf clothing. Now of course you have to like wild looking boardshorts if you're going to wear these in the water, but for $13, you can't go wrong. Click here (Analog) to snatch a pair.
Surfboard shaper to the stars Rusty Preisendorfer had a boardshort side gig going for awhile (he's since sold the clothing arm of the business so he could spend more time surfing Black's) but the boardies are still looking good and reasonably priced- like these bad boys for $25. Click here (Rusty)to lock and load a pair.

The company that started the boardshort revolution back in the 70's- Quiksilver- has even got some cheap trunks on sale- like these Bob Marley inspired Jamaica jammers. Priced right at $25. Click here (Quiksilver) to rock a pair.

And one of my personal favorite brands (not because of it's team over the years- Taj, Parko, AI R.I.P., Occy, Luke, Rasta, Dorian, etc. etc., etc.) but becuase of it's good looking boardies. Or maybe it is the team. Anyway, $39 may not seem like a deal- especially since full price boardies back in the 80's were just $40- but nowadays it's steal with boardshorts over $100. Crikey. Make sure to click here (Billabong) $39.99 to purchase them.

Now that I've just styled you out for less than a 1/2 a tank of gas, make sure to repay me by letting me catch a set wave the next time we're surfing...
