At the moment surfing takes precendence over photography, due to time constraints. With two young'uns I have smaller timeframes available, so it's usually surfing that wins out...

Don't have it yet mate, most likely in about 6 weeks - just in time to compete with the summer blow-ins on their oversized SUP's

Herro...circa 98. Best carving off the top ever.

Wouldv'e buried Slater with this turn if he didn't descend into alcoholism.

That turn of Herro's is a thing of raw beauty, Tracks ran years a ago a cuttie of his as move of the month, just awesome.

Surfing !!!!

Be in a barrel, or be on the beach taking a photo of somebody in a barrel. its a no brainer.

Thousands of sessions down and just a handful of bad photos to prove it.
