• Swell is on it's way to the East Coast of Oz, the sun will be shining and the Billabong Pro Rio will kick back into action in a few hours. We have a great weekend ahead. Crack a beer (or beverage of choice), kick the feet up and suck the juice of life Melon Heads.

  • Mambo pro surfer, @blake_thornton is pretty comfortable falling into water. To test that notion, we pushed him in. To get the gear, check out our range for Big W Australia or The Warehouse New Zealand #mambo #water #ocean #falling #photooftheday #instadaily #instagood #blakethornton
  • @mambogoddess campaign teaser. We look forward to showing you more when the bloody photographer gets his head out of the way @jasonleeparry @realbarbarapalvin @ashleyjhart #mambogoddess #ashhart #barbarapalvin #jasonleeparry #venicebeach #goddess
  • Today, we thought we'd give props to a Mambo artist who has been absolutely killing it of late, @mistaprice. Piece after piece he continually blows our minds and we thought it was about time we gave him some online recognition. Travis, we love your work mate, keep up the epicness! #art #travisprice #mambo #instagood #instadaily #photooftheday #artist #epic
  • On the weekend, Mambo's newly signed grom, Ben Penny smashed the Volcom VQS Champs over in Gisborne, NZ. Ben finished 2nd with his best mate, Jamie Krupps taking it out for a 1-2 finish for Oz. The non-alcholic champagne never tasted so good! Shot by Harry Sweeney #winning #surf #volcom #mambo #vqs #instagood #instadaily #shotoftheday
  • Here at Mambo we are nothing if not contentious. We thought we’d wrap the week with a handful of graphic favourites that have also landed us in deep brown porridge over the years. A little something here for everyone, including that constantly circling shark, the copyright lawyer #mambo #redneck #paulinehanson #paperscissorsrock #forgivethemfather #art #copyright #instagood #instadaily #photooftheday #funny
  • Today, Team Mambo had a task on their hands. We were up early, coffees in hand and overly prepared to shoot our @kidmambo summer campaign. The problem with shooting a bunch of kids is that when you tell them to go bananaz, they do just that. It might seem like a great concept in theory but you try shooting a 6'1 gorilla and a bunch of groms hopped up on sugar. Complete bedlam! #bedlam #bananaz #goinbananaz #mambo #kidmambo #campaign #photography #instagood
  • Due to our marketing piggy bank running out of coins, we couldn't afford to fly Mambo artist, @leemcconnell to Broome to help @savethekimberley. Instead, we shot him with a broom and shipped a big pack of tees up to the crew in the Western Australia to sell and help raise funds for the fight. Get your "No Gas!" tee now from this link: http://stores.ebay.com.au/Save-The-Kimberley-STK?_trksid=p2047675.l2563 #savethekimberley #broome #gas #nogas #mambo #artist

  • Regram from the gorgeous and ridiculously talented singer of @vanhoornmusic, @cheyennet in our Summer 11' @mambogoddess campaign shot in a snowing, and bone chilling NYC.
  • Congrats goes out to Mambo wonder boy, @leemcconnell who just took out the @tigerbeer #tigertranslate art battle. Now he's off to Vietnam to compete against the worlds best! #vietnam #artbattle #art #tigerbeer
  • In 1992 British art & culture magazine, @id_magazine asked Mambo to contribute a piece of art for an upcoming anti-fascist edition. Having a very low opinion of fascists ourselves we said, OK and then invited Reg Mombassa to dive into his pencil box and vent our spleen. The image proved so popular it was still selling a year later. #mambo #regmombassa #art #fascist #i-dmagazine #music #housemusic #poster
  • If you live on the east coast of Australia and you haven't checked your local surf forecast site, don't bother, it's gonna be flat. Instead, fill an esky with your essentials (beer, sandwiches, black market kidneys, what ever floats your boat), grab a few mates and head down to your local spot for a weekend of "pavement surfing". Get the Betadine ready though, because Skating isn't as forgiving as it's water based cousin. @bradmcdermott shot by Andrew Fawcett #skate #skater #park #mambo

  • Following on from our rich history of youth exploitation, Mambo is proud to announce an extra edition to our bulging surf team of 3, North Steyne Boardriders grom, @benpenny. Cheads, Blake and Quinny now have a permanent board de-waxer on all future surf trips. Photo by @blaisebell
  • Mambo's favourite "south of the bridge" son, Blake Thornton is currently deep in the frigid waters of Canada, where his day to day dealings include Grizzly Bears, Killer Whales and sub zero temperatures. If it's so cold, then why Blake isn't wearing his hood? Well, Canada's freezing water temperatures have nothing on Alaska, which is where Blake was heli-boarding and surfing with a few crazy mates. This time, we're not jealous. Regram @blake_thornton #canada #grizzlybear #surfing #canadasurf #freezing #mambo #mamboaustralia #blakethornton #vancouverisland
  • The working week is coming to an end, it's Friday and we are jumping for joy like @ashleyjhart and @realbarbarapalvin. Enjoy the weekend! #sun #fun #pumped #weekend #models #barbarapalvin #ashleyhart #party
  • Lest We Forget, tomorrow's day off is in honour of the ANZACS. Have your first beer, or two, in honour of the Diggers who fought for this epic country. Oh yeah, and good luck in two up. Tails all the way, have a great day. #anzacs #anzacday #diggers #beer #twoup

MAMBO SUMMER WINE DOWN

Published March 1, 2012

If you were within a bleeding ear of Manly Wine last night, you’ll know that Mambo was throwing a party for anyone who cared to attend.

The occasion? Four weeks since our last party. The place was packed to the sweating rafters with surfers (Blake Thornton, Luke Cheadle, Dayyan Neve, Kai Otton and Matt Wilkinson), skaters, rockstars (Jon Stevens), goddesses – Jodhi, McNaughty, Kyly and Zoe to name a few, not to mention the sporting elite – Benji Marshall (keeping a low profile in Sea Eagle’s territory) and Oz cricket skipper Michael Clarke as well as the Mambo crew doing what we do best: kicking back with a song in our heart and a long-neck in each hand. Here’s some of what you missed….
