RE: Blow out - The Central Coast (Estero Bay) is a tight group of surfers, AzhiaziaM represents those surfers who actually grew up surfing these spots, NOT the transplants who seeth hatred for us doing what we have always done and love doing. AzhiaziaM (As high as I am) is a spiritually and positive lifestyle Clothing brand. We encourage getting your highs through adrenalin based sports and NOT drugs. Yes some people we know do do drugs, some people we know have died from them (RIP). Drugs lead to tragedy, misery and death... We actually work hard to keep our bros off drugs, so thanks for spewing more junk about something you know nothing about...
