Monumental


BOMMIE2

Riding Rafts with Paul Newman

SOLO SLIDES



Monumental from adam williams on Vimeo.

As you can see in the video above, they were nice , long and clean waves with the offshore blowing all day. Apart from having this solo for over 2 hours I was able to rescue Paul’s mat and save him a long swim back to shore. A nice clean karate chop fare between the shoulder blades whilst taking off allowed his mat to just slip from his grasp( I watched this first hand from the safety of the shoulder) and was able to catch the next foam ride thru to the inside and swoop up his mat whilst continuing my ride!

2HOURS plus with just Paul and myself , whilst a couple of riders ventured down to the right hander. Just as were packing up to leave another few surfers ventured down and the tide made the swell inconsistent , so basically we scored again with just the 2 of us.

We did go back out again after a short rest to ride our kneeboards, but the first session on the mats taxed all our energy and we only caught a few and came in totally knackered.

He thinks he's Ironman in that red suit.

Jakes got some serious competition now.

Spiral got sucked over the fall pretty bad and came in saying.....

"I'm a deep sea diver now POP!"

So funny.....

"Yeah you are. You just went to the bottom of the ocean. Ha ha ha!"

Kneelo’s Breakfast


058

I received a couple of messages this morning  asking if I was heading out to Shelly’s for a wave ,and as the forecast looked good and my work schedule could be shuffled to suit, so it was a easy decision to swap my work tools for a board and flippers and head on out. As I walked around the corner of the reef I saw Chayne taking off on a nice righthander, followed by another kneelo on the next wave. By the time my gear hit the beach I counted 4 knee men in the water and surf photographer Robbie Slater standing down the right side of the peak taking pics. There was already a cruisey crowd of surfers in the water and 3 feet plus of swell, so I was happy to indulge my self on the lefthanders , whilst the kneemo’s all went right giving Robbie a chance to snap a few pics of them riding the ramp.

I spoke to Rob briefly before paddling out and asked if he mine taking a couple of pics of me ‘wallowing on the shoulder ‘ and ‘dodging barrels’ with a promise from me that I would stay away from the rights and his photo shoot , which he kindly obliged and sent me these

This one wave below, showing me going backwards over the falls really screwed me over, just scraped the reef with my head and ragg dolled me under water , injuring my neck and shoulder again…..this kept me out of the water for over a week and a trip to my Chiropractor….ouch

I jumped into the water to do some filming with my Go Pro and only captured a few rides before getting out , as my shoulder had started to give me some grief and the current kept sweeping me back into the impact zone

NO COUNTRY FOR COLD MEN – TRAILER



NO COUNTRY FOR COLD MEN - TRAILER from STOKE MACHINE on Vimeo.

Doing a film on a surfer, booger and kneeboarder requires a decent dose of the absurd, which we here @ ZION have in abundance. Chasing the untouched crest to the coldest corners of the earth above all else requires a reasonable amount of absurd. Powered by all this absurdity and a eye for fleeting moments of beauty we bring you No Country For Cold Men, a moderate to highly absurd modern day multi craft pilgrimage exploring the upper echelons of cool. And by cool I mean icy bone rattling cold. If you dig icy realms and anything remotely absurd then come to the World Premiere and Icelandic winter feast.



Starring Garrett Parkes - James Kates - Chayne Simpson

World Premiere and Iceland Winter Feast, Friday 28th August

7pm @ The Stoke Factory

101 Swan St

Wollongong



Bands - DJ's - Mad hangs - Plus a guest celeb Icelandic winter meat carving by our very own Moot Young!
