Travel

100 pounds of Yabbies, 100's of hot chicks, 100 cartons of beer.. hello California Summer. Ive been back in Australia for the past 3 months to try squeeze the last remaining days out of the Australian Summer. But come April it was time for me to pack up a few sleds and head back over to the states to post up for there summer. Ive been here two weeks now and have already had some of the funnest days of my life.

Sittin at an internet cafe at the Gold Coast, pubs over flowing nearby, teenagers running a muck for the sake of it, If i could go home i would, but when i get home i want to come back, there is something bitter sweet about this place you lose your mind with a sniff of the north end [Surfers], yet the South end can make you feel like you are playing in the world's biggest wave pool........

Ok its been a while since the last post, the reason being one part laziness, one part travel time and two parts shitty internet connections... and alot has happen since then. First up, Lacanau and the magnificent BOYS NOIZE and BUSY P.

Well its been a few days since i have written anything, and today i have a chance to as i'm sitting in my room hungover after a three day bender. After all our exits from the event we decided to take advantage of Americas crazy night life and go a little bit crazy..A bunch of good times were had and tomorrow we are off to Japan for the next part of the leg, hopefully to detox also.. yeww

California in the summer is by no means known for good waves. the waves normally come from the south in lines as straight as a die and just close out, we tried having a little surf in the 3 foot closeouts but it didn’t really give us a chance to unleash anything to spectacular.. It was still cool to check out the U.S open contest site and get a feel for the waves we were going to have to put up with in our heats.

The last few weeks i've been flat out. I went to Streaky Bay South Oz with my mates Paul and Murrey Antonieff. They've got a friend who lives there and we went and spent a week with him. He's on to all the waves up and down the coast and has a four wheel drive and a ski so we could pretty much get anywhere. Some of the waves are so fun but it's that sharky you'd want a ski running the whole time you were out. I've never been so freaked out by sharks before. We surfed one bombie about a kilometre out and the waves were big and perfect.

Today was a pretty cruisy day for most of us, as none of us had heats in the event till tomorrow and the waves weren’t really too epic, so we hooked up the speakers to the roof of the boat got our portable mixers out and started to DJ on the roof of the boat, it was like a small rave in the middle of the ocean, we had techno pumping and mates off other boats were coming over to our boat to go mad to some chronic beats.
it was epic.
