With the event getting under way tomorrow around 7.30am PST, I have been busy. Busy riding all the new boards I got under my wing before I flew over here. With my usual magic sticks not performing in no less than pumping Lowers Trestles I had to try the new ones out. Lucky for me, [...]

I must be dreaming some sort of sick and twisted dream. All day today I have been surfing waves that were over head and fun. I am in California. That never happens here!! It’s exciting is what it is. Here’s hoping the swell holds in for the next week or so! http://www.nikelowerspro.com/

It has been some time since I typed on this very keyboard. My computer had been shacked up in the shop getting some tender loving care. Not too sure why, as it is only 11 months old! However, it is now out and ready to roll back into action again. And just in time. The [...]

So this year in Newcastle I took a different approach. The kind people at britz.com.au have supplied me with a campervan to tour around the Australian leg in. So I’ve taken it upon myself to be a dirty carpark backpacker! Only, I’m doing it in relative luxury. While only managing a 17th in Newcastle, it [...]

Well, the boys have started off with a bang in 2012. Billy has won his NZ National title number 2 in small waves at Piha over the weekend. And proving I am aging like a fine wine, I have won the Senior mens division. In similar performances in both division finals Billy scored 17.10 to [...]

Well another year bites the dust. Another year older or, as some might say, another year wiser. It came with a whole mixed bag of things happening in my life. Weddings, funerals, NZ winning the World Cup, results on tour and the birth of my first child. It was a really good year on the [...]

So as the season winds down to the final leg in Hawaii we can look back with some satisfaction over a year of solid results. Billy and Rick are in Hawaii right now waiting on a start in the first event at Hale’iwa on Oahu’s North Shore. I sit and wait for something different all [...]

So another day passes us by on Kangaroo Island. And it is yet another lay day. The swell has just been sliding past us with too much Westerly direction in it to wrap into Vivonne Bay. We took the 20 minute drive early this morning dodging and weaving the Kangaroos, Wallabies and Birds that hug [...]
