Wax Your Surfboard With the Surf Grooming Kit Noir

Surf boards need love and care after riding those waves. They need to be waxed and groomed just like your hair does. Well, not exactly. But anyways, we bet those of you who really love your board want to treat it with something a little special. That’s why the folks at The Make Co., Archive, and Ethos came up with the newest edition of their Surf Grooming Kit collaboration that originated in 2013, the Surf Grooming Kit Noir edition.

They decided to change the packaging, encasing the goods in a powder coated steel and gold case, but don’t fret, they promise that you are still getting “The most sophisticated maintenance kit for your surfboard on the market.”

Inside is a waxcomb cast from bronze and inlayed with Macassar Ebony, a black cotton cloth, a bar of wax and a small bottle of methyl hydrate to clean off any residue left behind by the wax.

The waxcomb features standard comb grooves, a scraper, and a bottle opener, just in case you want to pop open a cold one after all that surfing. There’s also a lanyard so you don’t lose it. Attach it to your keys or your jeans so you won’t forget it.

Wax your surfboard in style with the Surf Grooming Kit Noir edition, and prepare your board to catch those waves.

Discover the best Disney+ movies to watch this March

Princess Bride

Disney is arguably the most iconic entertainment brand in the world. The company's properties, both original and acquired, combine to produce content that transcends age demographics. Disney has built a brand that's beloved by children, and those children eventually age into adults who introduce their kids to the films they loved when they were young. Disney's animation alone has made it iconic, but in recent years, the company has also acquired some of the biggest pieces of intellectual property there are. And with Disney Plus available on any device, you can watch all these movies whenever you want.

Between its acquisitions of both Marvel and Star Wars, there's a good chance that Disney is shepherding whatever you love to screens, both large and small. When it launched Disney+, the company was sure to fill it with both those nostalgic animated classics and plenty of new stuff as well. If, like me, you've ever felt a twinge of nostalgia for the Disney movies you loved as a kid, they're all there. Just as importantly, though, you can find movies that will resonate with you today in ways they didn't as a kid. Whatever you're looking for, you can probably find it on Disney+.

Having a vast library of good television shows and films is the most important factor in the success of a streaming service. That's part of what transformed Netflix into a global phenomenon, and it's why services like Paramount Plus have worked hard to build a healthy library of series that subscribers can browse through. As is the case with all streaming services, Paramount+ has a mix of original series that live only on the platform and older shows that were originally on broadcast and have now found a home on streaming.
Although these shows have varied histories, each one of them is a great staple in Paramount Plus's overall streaming library. Paramount+ might not seem like it has the kind of depth or variety that someplace like Netflix does, but trust me, once you dive in, you'll find that there are plenty of shows to watch and love.

The Mandalorian looks out over the sun

Disney Plus has finally created a competitive library of original series that can compete with other services like Netflix and Max. It's also a treasure trove of Disney nostalgia for anyone who grew up in the '90s and early 2000s. On top of all that, the streamer has released a few of the most popular TV series to come out in recent years, and those series, on top of the deep catalog, make a Disney+ subscription worthwhile.

The streaming service is, at the end of the day, still a streaming service. As a Disney fan myself, though, it can be hard not to get swept up in the magic that the service contains. Disney is an old-fashioned dream factory, and Disney+ is home to many of those dreams.
