HELPING HAND
Setelah di akhir bulan Desember 2005 yang lalu sukses menyelenggarakan acara amal bertajuk Surviving Skool Boy, pada tanggal 21 Januari lalu Lonely King Records [ed-- indie label milik Jerinx SID] dan Radioactivist Inc., bekerja sama dengan Slash Rock Shop menyelenggarakan acara penggalangan dana bertajuk Helping Hand untuk membantu meringankan penderitaan korban bencana tanah longsor yang terjadi beberapa waktu silam. Acara yang diadakan di Apache Club, Kuta ini diisi dengan penampilan band, seperti: Riddance Side, Nymphea, The Resistance, Cyber Machines, Parau, Devildice, Scared of Bums, Born by Mistake, dan Foreplay. Tiket seharga sepuluh ribu yang terkumpul diberikan kepada Palang Merah Indonesia dan langsung didonasikan kepada para korban tersebut.
GUS UPDATE
GUS is still following the plans to have an exclusive surf camp in the World Heritage listed Ujung Kulon National Park in West Java. Originally the camp was going to be the only place to stay on the island, but other boats could come in with the right permits. A recent development is the plan that only boats owned by the camp can access the waves. Therefore if you take a boat to panaitan you will need to park at the camp's jetty and use camp-owned boats to access the breaks. Basically, the camp company (CV. RIMBA WISATA) plans to control the land and the sea at Panaitan. We have a "Hall of Fame" that lists the travel agents which have dropped the camp. GUS didn't get into a technical legal augment with travel agents. We just claimed that exploiting World Heritage Sites was unethical. GUS is supporting Friends of Panaitan Island (FOPI) which working with WWF and UNESCO to get the Central Govt Forestry Department to cancel the camp. There's a lot of support for Panaitan. For example an NGO in the US called "Save The Waves" is taking up the issue and Fuel TV is also interested in saving Panaitan.
BASE EVENT
Untuk memeriahkan perayaan Gong Xi Fa Cai, BASE (Bali Action Sport Extreme) mengadakan berbagai acara seperti graffiti mural contest, skate games, bbq, DJ, body painting, dll pada tanggal 28-29 januari 2006 di Istana Kuta Galeria. Event ini juga dimaksudkan untuk mempromosikan BASE yang akan menjadi skatepark terbesar di Asia Tenggara (opening soon!).
