Wow. Check out this video of Greg Long chatting about the swell that hit Jaws on 25 December 2009. Crazy wipeouts. You would NOT catch me out there. These guys deserve some serious R.E.S.P.E.C.T.  Look out for Greg’s crazy wipeout and Twiggy’s nosedive to streamroll. NUTS.

Thursday 4 March. The Grand Beach Club. Granger Bay. Oakley South Africa threw one biiiiiig  jol for their 2010 Eyewear launch.  Anybody who cracked the nod for an invite went home stoked. Free Drinks, free Dinner and free Oakley Sunglasses. Woke up with a banging head on Friday morning. But it was so worth it. Thursday is the new Friday.

Something weird happened to my site.  I’m not sure what.  But Cindy has fixed it and we are baaaack in the game. Except that my last couple of posts have disappeared. I’m not going to redo them. I’m going to post new things.

The Quik Pro Aus  started a few days ago and my Fantasy Surfer team is doing shit. NOT because I picked a crap team (my team is awesome) BUT because I didn’t check the heat draw and they all ended up surfing against each other in round 3.  So half are still in the event and the other half have ALREADY been sent packing. Whatevs – Mick, Dane and Jordy are going to represent. I hope.  I need to beat Tammy’s team.

Moving on.

Went for a kankle check up yesterday and it looks like 3 MORE weeks in the Spaceboot and about 3 weeks of rehab after that ! So it’s still going to be a while before I’m 100% fit and back in the water.  I’m dying to get into the ocean.  But I will survive.

Dominating on my crutches

For some reason there is a press release about my Kankle on TheBOMBsurf.com - CLICKHERETOREADIT.

Apparently broken ankles are newsworthy. oh.

Tarryn Chudleigh is one of SA’s top female surfers.  She’s a very unusual character.  Awesome girl.  She also has a mean frontside off the top. Very mean.

Hospital is no fun.

I’ve fractured my ankle/kankle and looks like I’m out of the water for 6-8 weeks ! Was admitted for surgery at Alberlito Hospital this morning, then ended up not having the operation done. Thank goodnessssss. I have a rad spaceboot that I have to wear ’till it heals. Not toooo sure what I’m going to do with myself for the next few weeks. Damn.
