In Ballito for a Mr Price/RED Surf team shoot.

Arrived in KZN around 08:00 Friday morning, got some admin done in Durbs – visited one of my sponsors ISLAND STYLE and my board shaper BARON STANDER. Got to Ballito early afternoon and went straight down to Sunrise Point for the first shoot. It was around 3-4ft, dead low and blowing onshore NE. If you have ever surfed Sunrise you will know that it gets super heavy and Friday was no different. For some reason I decided to surf the Quadpod (WTF!?) and got worked – not enough drive/hold/complete opposite of the board I should have been riding out there. Had a few fun waves, nothing great. The boys were tearing. Here are some of the shots (c) Pierre Tostee

I am in love. Like for real. This board is amazing.  Baron sent it down to me yesterday – I’ve surfed it twice now and it’s AWESOME. 5′2 x 19 x 2 1/2 .  I’ve been riding it as a thruster but the plugs are set up so that I can ride it as a quad if I want. It’s so loooooose but also has a ton of drive.  You NEED to get one of these boards. Seriously. Listen to me.

Check out the pics of the sexy little QuadPod. I look super grumpy in these pics, I’m not toooooo sure whats up with that haha!
