2010

This year has been a good year for me. Getting a bit of exposure in a British mag, doing pretty well at S.A's and just scoring epic waves the whole year round. Did a fair bit of traveling up the coast and loads of local missions. Being part of the boland team 2010 was also great and getting hooked up with loads of sponsered products also made it worthwhile.

But this year is coming to an end now, got boland champs coming up on the 4th of december which should be quite fun. And then the Onrus classic on the 17th of December which should also be a cracker.

Actually already starting to get amped for boland trials next year, S.A champs is being hosted by Western Province and hoping they choose a decent venue.

Scored epic fun waves at caves yesterday with good mate William, Jandre and Malcolm. His pappa managed to snap some sick shots you might be interested in checking out.

Here's a link http://fakinchill.blogspot.com/

Here are just some photos from throughout the year:



Yes its onshore and yes it might have been dumb to paddle in but we did it. And after many failed attempts at trying to ride it we got it right. Then we got out.



The amount of stoke in my body was at an all time high just being here. In this area. World class wave and just the feel about it. Waves might not have been pumping but it was still great fun.



Boland 1st years on the 2nd day of S.A champs held in Durban. Was a good week.



Got this wave cooking a fair amount of times this year.



It's always heavier on the other side.

"And I miss you I'm going back home to the west coast"

I amped. I better go soon.

Anyways just got back from caves rolling with Sluggy V, MAFOOS and Armunchie. Yes it was fun and yes I did get some good photos thanks for asking.

Was a good surf especially after a not so fun maths paper today.

Here are some photos. Not the best ones.



A welcoming feel.

Scored some sick waves today at caves after arriving there, thinking it was total shit and once I got in I realised just how good it was. Got some real crackers. One or two decent shots.

Was a nice break from studying, writing a Physics exam tomorow. Should be interesting.

Some photos.

oom appie

Scored some fun, powerful caves today.

The sections were good and wedging well. There was unfortunately quite a crowd but I guess there is nothing wrong with that.

Its probably only getting better as i'm typingf this but exams times make it tough to surf all day.

Photos:

This delayed blog post is not great.

Have been quite busy lately, trying to score waves, take photos, and study in between. I did not get around to doing half of them so there arn't many action photos from the weekend. It was a good weekend for surf scoring reef on Friday, onshore but good surf Saterday and good wedges today.

Caves was quite crowded today but the few waves I got were fun.

I am tired
