Surfing towards the light
It’s round this time of the year ( August ) that the seasons start to change and we see hints of the coming north shore swell season. This image which I entitled Towards the light was taken during a small mid year bump of swell at Rocky [...]

Every which way but up
A ton of crew have descended on the north shore during the last week and there were so many faces out there today that I didn’t recognise. This was one of them and he wasn’t holding back.

Good times on the north shore
Wow, it’s been so spectacularly beautiful here on the north shore. Such beautiful glassy conditions with pretty consistent 3-5 foot waves. The amazing thing this year is the complete absence so far of traveling surfers. Just a handful of local surfers at any given spot. This must be about as close to [...]
A new swell, another Rocky’s sesh
I mosied on down to Rockys to scope it early this morning and the conditions were quite nice, before the wind got into it. Wasn’t really any pro’s out there till later in the session. Some of them were turning up as I left actually. Had it been the old days, [...]
first blood, 2009 season
We had our first north swell pulse of the season over the past couple of days. It wasn’t really anything epic, but hey, it was still August, which is pretty early for north pulses. Here’s a few pic’s of the crew doing their thing at early season rockies….

Super sessions at Rockies
Hi everyone, wow! it’s been so beautiful here this week. It’s been really blue and sunny with super gentle variable winds, which basically equates to super glassy conditions here with 3-4 foot swell every day this week. You’ve gotta love that for the month of May. Rocky Point was [...]
Sunny glassy conditions return to the north shore
Apparently, the bad weather has been here in the islands all the way while I was gone and is only just turning back now to good conditions. certainly it was nice yesterday with super glassy water and sunny to the max. So much actually that it maxed out the UV range at 12 [...]
It’s Lane’s birthday
I thought I’d take an opportunity to introduce you all to my wife Lane. As many of you who know the north shore are familar with, Lane is the chick in the pink helmet who’s out at Pipe every morning. If it’s breaking, she’s down there every day at the crack [...]
Good surf on the north shore
This morning at Pipe was pretty busy due to a large number of crew, out to get their fair share of the spoils on offer. Pipe was kinda doing it’s thing in that, every so many waves, there’d be a pretty decent one come through. There was a large film crew down there [...]
One in a million moment
Well folks, it really has been crappy round here on the north shore lately. Usually at this time of the year, it’s hard to find a safe place to surf, because of the size, but this year, it’s just hard to find waves, period. It’s another groundhog day out there [...]
Finally a glorious sunny morning
…..”some of my favourite surfers were out and all too happy to carve up some water in front of my lens”…..
