Darcy Turenne Love Affair

Posted: Sep 9, 2009

Source: Darcy Turenne

The other day while I was walking through the park in Victoria with my bow and arrow, I happened to see a black and pink Dakine carry-on suitcase (the rarest kind) in the grass. After I shot it with a low-dosage tranquilizer, our connection was instant - it was love at first sight. My getaway wasn't as smooth as I hoped it would be, but I don't think anybody saw the kidnap occur. When we finally made it home, it turns out we had a lot in common! We both love biking (he's not much of a jumper though), picnics, playing piano, cooking, dancing, and spending time on the ocean. As it turns out, it was all a ploy for him to get closer to my cooler. I can't believe I could be so stupid! Love is blind I guess...

Video inside of this love affair,

*Editor's Note - the following video was done as a joke and all viewers must possess a sense of humor before proceeding.*

My daughter thought the ad was "kinda crazy funny". She's 6. My thought was, ookaayyy, this is weird, and the point is....Dakine, its a bag, that you can take anywhere, love it, use it, abuse it, and it'll leave you in end????? What???

I wont complain, shes pretty cute. Cute womanly pro riders are few to come by so if they make a ridicules video, Ill watch it. Id rather watch that then a video then some dumb spill made by a 12 yearold. No offense to 12 yearolds.

This video was made by Darcy and some of her friends. It received no budget from anyone and we chose to play it because it is funny and shows that she's got a great sense of humor and is very creative.

I think she did a great job. She is repping her sponsors very well, targeted at the precise demographic they're after with a female rider.
Great piece of guerrilla marketing. And pretty clever all around.
