It was one of THOSE mornings where I’m sitting in the car watching the windscreen wipers beat side to side.
It’s raining and 1/2 foot. Lake Bondi is like a ghost town.
What to shoot? What am I doing with my life? Shall I go back to bed? Maybe I need to fly somewhere…
Then I see 2012 World Champ Joel Parkinson walking along the beach checking the surf (Yes…at Bondi). He’d heard about our amazing sand banks and came to see what all the action was about. Pity he’s a day late – all the swell has dissipated. I asked him “Been drinking?” (Responsibly of course).
If you’re looking for a pad in Bondi, lookie here.

Eesh that was a lame way link to some PR press release. Nice pics though Euge.
Parko – great, shame no waves for him. Did he get in the water?
Would love to see guys like this tearing up the Southy, South Bra, Bronte Reef on the storm days…
We used to have so many pros in the East, Hitchings, Abbertons, Webbers, Kerrbox,…
Loved seeing some of these guys tear up the local slush…
Loving the Standlich shots though – of him cutting into the local breaks.
So glad Parko got his moment in 2012…
Did Parko bother paddling out at Bondi?
Yep
Sorry, me again – love how if you didn’t know it Parko looks just like another local who sauntered down from his 1 bedder for an early surf!
