I love Runamuk Visuals. It’s one of my favourite sites. Their new project is called ‘Creative Destruction’ – and it’s all about Mr Wade Goodall. I have always loved Wade’s surfing and Creative Destruction gives us a cool behind the scenes look at what the dude is about. Sterling Spencer guest stars and he is hilarious. I like it.  ALSO, the surfing is SICK.

If you do not recycle we cannot be friends.  My good mate Warren has a company called No Standing. Warren’s company helps you to recycle. All you do is put your plastic, paper, glass etc into one of the bins they supply you with. Put it out with your rubbish. And they collect it once a week. Come on. How easy? If you live in Cape Town, please sign up for the No Standing service. Get your friends to do it toooo. xo

SA surfing champs/ Held in the DEEEEP South at St Mikes. Interesting place. Very fun times. There were some good waves during the event and some AWESOME surfing. My fav division is the Super Vets – over 60 and the ballies shred!

Margate. The very Dirrrrrty south.

Here are some pics from the event. And some pics of events from around the event. Does that make sense? click them please.

Yesterday photographer Kelly Cestari sent me a bunch of surfing pics from a year or so back. How HYYYsssterical is this one. SUPER close up and could I look more confused? cracks me up!

huh?

Check Check. 1.2.3/ – GO.  Spent Saturday morning down at Muizenburg beach with Surfing South Africa and Palama Metsi Surfing Academy. Surfing SA has a rad development program where they help out under privileged kids by getting them off the streets and teaching them how to surf ! They love it and are hooked straight away. They need all the help they can get and if you are keen to help out or make a donation CLICK HERE or get hold of the folks at Palama Metsi. . .

Look at these pics from yesterdays surf check. Not so kiff hey? I did not surf. The banks look fun at Blouberg though, a really nice looking right and left bank. Maybe when the ocean calms down a bit there will be branders. RAD.

I am wearing 4 layers here. You can hardly tell that it's me. Mushy ocean huh?

One very brave soldier

I can almost remember the sunshine. I can almost remember the sunshine. Last week’s sunshiny days. Or day. I think it was only one day. But it’s fine. I also like the rain. I like when Cape Town growls. I like red wine and I like dvd’s in bed.

But I especially like sunsets on the rock. Oh yessss. Check pics.

very kiff

Cape Town is grumpy today. But still very sexy. I’m fine with this angry weather. I like it. The swell is something like 25ft at 14 seconds. Solid. Beachies are maxing out and the big wave spots were nutty today. Hi winter. T.Mentasti and I took a drive down to Blouberg beach to do a wave check- it was outta control and the wreck was getting worked properly. Shit. Hope it’s going to be ok, will be super bleak if it breaks apart and our beautiful beaches get covered in oil. Hold thumbs. That would be no fun. No fun.

Here are a few pics from this evening-

Hi. Looks like I cracked the nod for the latest Zigzag Mag. Got a full page in the photo feature. STOKED – it’s been a while!! My good buddy Tyron Kansley took the pic. Nice Weskus team work Tyron.

In other news, Cape Town is rainy and cold today. I have had to purchase a flashy new hot water bottle to combat ankle stiffness. It seems to be working. Please also check out the Innersection website. RAD.

Surfed with Nikita at Eastern Beach. Caught a couple of fun ones on my Blue twin fin. Ankle was feeling ok. Not Bad. Not great. But better than expected. Stoked. Felt good to ride waves again. There were also a few Dolphins cruising around at backline. As you can see from the pics the water was brown and murky. Sharky vibes, it makes me a bit nervous haha.

Here are my fav things about ‘Slummies’

1) Friesland Milkshakes. Serious. Amazing. Chocolatey/Ice Creamy/Goodness. You will not understand until you have one. 

2) Nina Deli. I like to eat. I really like to eat at Nina Deli. I like everything on the menu. I like all the fresh produce. I like the chilli chocolate. I like all the deli goodies. I am a sucker for a deli, I cannot control myself.

3) Sandra Robb. Nikita’s mother is probably one of the funniest humans I have ever met. Funny. Really funny. A very funny lady. Portuguese firecracker and I adore her.

4) Nahoon Corner. One time, some time ago, like a few years back I had an amazing surf at Nahoon Corner. The waves were so good. I fell in love then. I fell in love with Nahoon Corner. I have been back here many, many times. And every time I come back, Nahoon Corner doesn’t even break. It plays with my emotions. I want it back. Just one time. 

5) Numbers Nightclub. BUT ONLY on ‘Decades Night’. What a banging place. THE most fun you could ever have at a nightclub. Ever. ALL the hits from the 60’s. ALL the hits from the 70’s. ALL the hits from the 80’s. ALL the hits from the 90’s. Banging.

I also took out the GoPro and got some quick clips of Nikita. The video is REALLY bad quality, cos of the Dinocomputer I made it on – but still worth a look I guess.
