I hear you chief, but surf culture has always rested easily with Tiki, so it seems a logical crossover to me. These surf companies usually started with a couple of people in a surf shack, making the goods for their friends and went on from there. Besides, Tiki mugs have had logos plastered on their backs for decades. Anything from movies (Blue Hawaii) to Frats to more corporate restaurants (Hard Rock Cafe) have had logos stuck onto existing Tiki mugs. Trader Woody
