Des(s)ert Barrels

Deep in the African desert there's a long piece of magic.
We made the 25 hour drive in Winter and only managed to make a quick movie now for all you guys to witness this perfection, enjoy!

Home, not so boring afterall!

Usually out of season ST Francis is not the funnest place in the world, but get a bunch of friends together, amazing summer days and waves, you'll be surprised.

Here's a CRAZY vid my brother made with his GoPro at Annes in ST Francis with a couple clips of me:

Just the other day JBay was off its tits and a good friend Jacob Mellish decided to fly down for the swell and spend a couple days with me. I will be uploading some sick pics soon when i can get them.
So anyways, the day the swell died we ran out of ideas of what to do besides play FIFA 12 - If anyone thinks they can beat me i am open for the challenge, online or offline - so we decided to explore The Links golf course for some downhills to take our sector 9s. Had soooo much fun skating it for 3 days straight but what was an even bigger rush was getting through the security boom gates at the entrance, but with a friendly smile and some kind words anythings possible ;)
Jacob's dream one day is to become an editor, you be the judge of the video he made of the first time we went downhilling. Enjoy and have a laugh haha

What happens when I play Man United online

Leash tans, Fake stuff, Noodles and Amazing waves.

So I recently went on a little bit of a getaway to a place I've been soooo amped to go to, Bali!
Had such an amazing time with all the boys surfing, chilling and bargaining. Although i drank tap water, Ate the dodgiest food, I still never got Bali Belly, which I consider myself lucky to be alive. Although I left there with the gnarliest leash tan, 5 layers of skin burnt off and a couple reef scars, I still went away happy with a good couple of barrels, a sick pair of fake Chelsea FC pants and got to experience a kinda weird, hilarious culture.
Here's some eye candy from Bali, enjoy and be jealous :)

Staying in a really crap place unfortunately.

Very arty

Don't mind our tans hahaha

Newquay, yet another interesting trip

Pretty perfect party place

Ok so I've arrived in Newquay (UK), another massive surf event just after Huntington Beach (California).
It's pretty much exactly the same as California, Nice weather(so far), amazing place, festivities, but once again NO WAVES. Except Newquay gets dark at 10 and light at 5 and there are no 14 year old girls walking around pretty much naked, otherwise they will get pink and sunburnt.

Not the best waves i have ever seen

Chaos (California) to Chaos (Newquay)

More concerts and stands!

Only in America

Chaos for the MGMT concert

Life is too easy here

Welcome to chaos

Ok so here's a preview of the people you might be meeting in America if you ever go there.

Sneak Peak of the Secret Peak

Boards were hating life while it lasted...

 Got some sick barrels and good memories with the boys at ****. One of the bigger highlights of my life so thought why not put a couple pics up on my page. Enjoy and be jealous!

California here we go

Arriving at the US Open

Huntington Pier

Ok, so haven't updated my blog in WAY too long, haven't had much exciting news besides surfing and hanging with my mates back home and Cape Town so i thought why not update it now that I'm in California. Besides the small waves and it being onshore everyday Surf City has been full of festivities during the US Open and really amazing vibes. Staying in a nice little Inn at Newport with some good company Jerrod Clancy, Byron Brodowicz, Frankie Cuda and my brother all having a good time. I must say California is one of the top places I've been in my life, super clean and tidy, such nice people, warm, sunny and good vibes. Not to mention every second car is a Merc, Beemer, Ferrari, Astons and Audi sportscars which is some good eye candy to the boys. The place is beautiful too.
