Kelly Slater looking for some serious air time, unsuccessful in the end. A commendable effort, nearly requiring a passport.

gotta win it to ring it







The bell has rung again. Congrats Joel Parkinson and Sally Fitzgibbons.

little runner



My good friend, Shaun Freeman, sent me an email today with this shot of me riding this little beachy. He included the following words;

a man stands tall across the face of a breaking wave,
which has traveled further than he thought.
the sky and the sea seem one, and whisper to him..
his day dreams coincide with this little peelers journeys end. 
together they have the last dance
to share freedom and fear
and a knowing
the dream actually never ends.

An early morning canter on the beach. Beautiful to watch.

leaps and bounds


Shaun Freeman giving his all to prove white men can jump.

A fruitless surf check resulted in housecleaning, photo editing and home-brew beer bottling. Here's hoping for at least SW winds tomorrow.

we must


do more of the things that make us happy.
