The always rad surf/snow/skate mentoring organization, Stoked partnered with Nike this summer for the 6.0 Days of Stoked, a 6 week program that brought kids from inner city Los Angeles to the surf mecca of Huntington Beach to immerse them in the world of surf journalism. With little or no experience with either surfing or journalism, the kids bonded with the waves and each other to produce a 16 page magazine that even inspired US Open of Surf junior champ Evan Geiselman to donate his winnings to the cause. Check out this edit from the experience above and a look at the mag after the jump.
