Incredible water moment
This is an interesting moment from last week’s dream sand bar days. There was this one surfer duck-divingthrough this wave.
I don’t know what happened to them, but this is a pretty cool Hawaiian surf moment….

A whole different state of mind to Hawaii
With all the radical weather that’s been hitting the U.S. and Europe this year, I thought I’d spare a thought for our colder surfing bretheren. As many of you know, I originated from a pretty cool place myself. The Australian island state of Tasmania, but unlike the Hawaii’an islands, this place [...]

Taj Burrow takes the 2009 Pipe Masters mantel
They ran the finals of the Pipe Masters yesterday and although it wasn’t exactly
real Pipeline, it was a lot better than some previous finals days. At least we had tubes offer. There was only one Hawaiian surfer left in the mix, my good friend Flynn Novak who was up [...]
A pleasant afternoon on the north shore
It’s been a few days of relentless wind and rain squalls, so it was a bit of a pleasant surprise when it turned sunny with light off-shores this afternoon. I guess everyone was watching it because there were way more photographers than name surfers at Off The Wall, this afternoon. [...]
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.

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, [...]

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….
The 10 best world champion surfers of all time
I was talking with a friend about the ten best surfers on the planet and I was thinking how impossible, it felt to pick just 10 as it’s not really set in stone. There’s so many factors that governs one choices. At least with actual world champions, it is set in stone, so [...]

Global Warming will lead to new surf zones
Hi everyone, I read some crazy figure yesterday in the paper the polar caps have defrosted 40% in the last 40 years. Wow! Even if that’s just 1/10th correct, it will spell calamity for shorelines of the world. A plus for surfers at least is that there will all manner of [...]
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 [...]
stellar moments on the north shore
Well, it was an odd situation. There I was standing on the beach at Off The Wall, sun’s just come up and there is just one guy out. No-one on the beach, other than one other (Chris Marcher) who was preparing to get out there himself. Stellar barrels are [...]
