depression

i had a very saddening time at caves today perfect 2-3ft wedges shallow dredging but i had none of it we managed to film quite a bit and got some alright footage we will be filming more and hopefully produce a short clip soon enough tomorow is also looking fruity yesterday we surfed caves on a 16ft swell it wasnt even too big but the wedges were just perfect its a pitty we have no exposure to solid 5ft clean wedges so we pussied out after only an hour of surfing

here are some photos from yesterday all taken by goodmate jj boshoff

The swell that wasn't

And once we again we have been hoaxed by the magical world of swell forcasts. We travelled. Took photos. Did not surf.

Tomorow we will be staying locally and surfing the local spot. Petrol costs money and is unfortunately something that runs out very fast in todays lifestyle.

Here are some photos from today.



Looks nice inside there.

I leave you with this. Do with it what you wish.

Easter froth

Happy easter to all of you egg hunters. Had a nice easter in Onrus of all places and I am sure all of you collected some frothable waves. This week is looking rather pleasing with decent swell almostr everyday. I will be heading around the coast just now in search of long barrels. Lets hope the mission is succesful.

Surfed a little compo in Onrus well there. Came 2nd loosing to Wilder Schultz, an up and coming melkbos grom. Stoked with myself for making it to the final. A little bit disappointed in the judging criteria but overall still pleased.

I didn't take much time out to take photos due to precipitation but snapped a few. Will be taking some today hopefully.

fisheye

I got bored and google "homemade fisheye" quite a few ideas popped up and i decided to try one. I gives pretty much the same effect as a circular fisheye filter but only cost R40..

Here are some photos :



My homemade one. Image out of focus



Similar design one costing R700

So the holiday has ended and the start of the 2nd school term is tomorow. This holiday was truely great. Good fun with friends and some sick experiences. Also ended the holiday with some of the best caves I have had in a long time.

The west coast classic went quite well but I do feel that I got a crap deal in my semi's where I got an interference call for no apparent reasons. But the call was made and I will continue to take my losses as I take my wins. I remain stoked.

Here are some holiday photos:

I am off to the west coast as of next week where I will be residing with a few friends for the holiday. Amped to say the least but cannot help the thoughts in my mind asking where the waves are going to be. We will be camping a bit aswell as some luxury 3 star accomodation compliments of Eureka.

The comp promises to be a good one and I will be working there to pay my living costs. I am frothing yes.

Here are some photos recently taken. I hope you find them attractive.
