DGZ and our good friends at Corona collaborated recently to create DGZ 45’SOUTH. basically, a bunch of friends set loose with a camper in the lower south Island of New Zealand in search of some frigid weather and even colder waves. This is a photographic journal of our ten days tripping around 45’degrees (S), 170’degrees (E) and a behind the scenes look at the short film which accompanies this edition of Halves. The crew: Maz Quinn, Rangi Ormond, Alex Dive & Skip James were each given a disposable camera and pad & pen to document the journey through their eyes and drawings; as you will see thoughout this edition of Halves. Stay tuned for issue #05 of Damaged Goods Zine as well, where we have the full story in print. Written by our nomadic friend on board the journey, Rangi Ormond.
