Summer Holiday Crowds and Zero Swell =
Getting up and into the water before the sun rises
trying to beat the hungry hoards to what little waves there is!
at least the water is nice and warm
and its the best view in the world!
from where we are looking from
SCUMM brother’s Paul ‘snickers” Newman
and Eric da Bolt Bridges joined me for a few little ones amongst the ever growing crowd..I was in the water by 5 am and had some solo gratitude for at least 30 minutes before the onslaught started, so I decided to grab my mask and snorkel and record some underwater surf footage with the new GoPro Black 3+ camera

We were all out of the water by 8.30, so after a quick bite to eat and some COFFEE, Paul had to split to spend some quality family time
Whilst Eric and myself went searching for some beach break barrel’s

Looking to buy a good ‘rash shirt’ that is grippy enough to wear without slipping and sliding off your mat or board ?
I can highly recommend this brand and material…WEST wetsuits make this rashie from bamboo and PET plastics, great way to recycle and these rash shirts give me no grief when sliding on my mat or kneeboard in these hot summer conditions. This shirt is a few years old and still in great condition considering that I don't rinse it out and do all the right things that the label recommends….its SCUMM proof!

This one is a special....I was sitting outside the hospital , sitting under the trees waiting on news about my sick mother in law...message on a leaf! She passed away last night, I like to think that Sheila had a hand in this beautiful picture.
