Mike Vincelli
Mike is the creator of the "Beachnuts Comic Strip" an insightful and sideways vision of the surfing world. His writing is clever and the quality of his artwork speaks for itself. We're pleased to say that Mike has kindly produced a Northcore character for us. The idea for this character was to represent a surfer who's stoked to be surfing head high waves in freezing water and we think he's captured it perfectly! You'll hopefully be seeing more of our character in the future.

This is what Mike's bio says:
"We think Mike likes to surf, with head high on-shore dribble in polluted water being his favorite conditions.
He took some art classes in high school and college, but got sick of drawing inanimate objects and disgusting naked people that shouldn't be seen in the nude, let alone be reproduced as art (so no, he was never an art major). Ba ba BeachNuts is the culmination of his 16 years of being a surfer and a hapless kook.
Also, to the utter disgust of his friends (he has friends?), he can be found in the lineup riding boards that should no longer be ridden - buy a new board, you cheap b*stard!"
