Matthew McConaughey paparazzied in FA hat

Even though the surfers hate the paparazzis– in this case they did us a favor and got our boy McConaughey wearing the latest in Freedom Artists mesh truckers. McConaughey Jr. has got one on too!

The 3rd Annual Freedom Artists Surf Series ignited during the last week of April with a Solid SSW Groundswell at Westward Beach. Surfers such as Danny Fuller, Josh Curran, Kalani Robb, Colin Giles, Noah Ericsson, Danny Estes, Quinn McCrystal, and Killian Garland came to compete and show their support for this grassroots LA-homegrown surf series. Local shops including Becker, Clout, Santa Monica Surf Shop, ZJ’s, Revolution, and Val Surf showed their support as well. The whole vibe was family and friends — collective ingredients for a great day on the beach and an amazing summer in the making.
