So many waves!!Should get some good pics uploaded by say 4pm.



Good to hear Simondo - I have just set myself a count down timer.....Weiry could learn from this sort of promptness

Hope you find your boards in one piece or as the fiancé says its a shop-otunity!



Sounds like a great trip Simondo Son.
Yeh Weiry ya slack bastard where's the pics ?


Mate haven't even looked at the gopro footage yet,not slack, just been flatout mate. not much on the other camera as the power in Krui Sth-sumatra is run by hamsters it couldn't even charge it. had no probs with the gopro though.

Just got a call, boards are in Singapore coming on tonights flight. I should get them tomorrow morning.

Here's a cracker of a photo of Bob. I took the photo on Day 1. My camera was on full zoom, and I've zoomed and cropped further. Amazing colours. Bob's face is in the shade. He's wearing a cap (backwards) in this photo. Riding his EvoII with a lovely cotton inlay.





Here's a wave of mine on my 39th birthday. At Cokes.



Recognise the board Asea!?


Sorry for delay. Flat out after getting home!

I will also try and post an interview with Bob (onto my Youtube channel). My Mac doesn't recognise the format. Will get onto a PC and try. I'm in Melbs tomorrow, so don't expect too much.

Massive apologies for the drip feeding. Just flat out. Working some overtime, but it's paid, so that's OK.

Daneli, the guy in the middle in the white T-Shirt is about 105 kegs. Bryan on the left is about 95 kegs. So yes, it was perspective.

Bob was great value. So many stories!
1) The Bluebird Logo - he was lying on his stomach up at Lennox Head(land) around the time of the swallow tail single fin days. Saw a swallow fly past and arch around doing top to bottom turn in mid air... He went to the local library to get pictures of Swallows so that the logo could be created.

Beers - mostly we were pretty stuffed of an evening. Don't worry, we all chugged away, but often we started drinking at 6-6:30pm after the late arvo session, and stopped at 9:30ish to rest up for the dawn session... We scored plenty of dawn sessions to ourselves. NO CROWD! It's quite uncrowded anyway.
