Welcome to  DOWN TO THE CORE a behind-the-scenes, industry-only monthly guide designed to give you the lowdown and all the guff on upcoming issues of  TRACKS  and WAVES.

It’s also my intention with this rant to keep you in the know about other current surf media initiatives that you may find useful, possibly giving you an advantage in this challenging market.
