It doesn’t seem like there could be a whole lot of improvements left to make in boardshort technology but leave it up to Quiksilver to find one. This summer they are introducing Diamond Dobby Technology,essentially little diamond shaped pillows on the inside of the shorts which in addition to reducing rashes, stretching a massive 33% horizontally, drying twice as fast as a normal boardshort and being super lightweight, promises to “keep you shredding in crazy comfort and your special areas happy all day long.” That sounds nice. Above is the new “Cool Out” boardshort, check out the Diamond Dobby tech close up after the jump.

Quiksilver has launched a zine on their website called Roam dedicated to documenting their skate team trips this year. The old school zine aesthetic flipped digitally with good photography and embedded video and audio is a nice alternative to standard web photo gallery presentation. The first issue documenting Quik’s trip to Brasil has just dropped. Check it out here. Via Transworld
