3rd Reef
Aloha. You’d probably gathered from the 1st shot today that I am still in Hawaii. Yes, I will return – just not now. A swell has arrived here in Hawaii. A mammoth rogue beast of a swell. When it gets big here on the North Shore a unique reef system makes the waves break far […]

Aloha. Happy Australia Day for yesterday. Looks a tad wet back home, and next week, wow, even wetter. Something broken with this summer! Back here on ‘The Rock’ we’ve had a bit swell arrive. Not huge, not good enough for them to run the Volcom Pipe Pro – but in my book, pretty darn good…look […]

Aloha. Looks like some swell coming in the next few days so I opted to shoot non-surfing stuff today. You’re gonna get enough surfing action…don’t fret. I reckon the Volcom Pipe Pro may kick off tomorrow as well. Loads of hot surfing talent around – just look in any direction and someone is doing an […]

I thought I’d never say it, but I am surfed out… The waves in Hawaii have been consistently above head high for weeks now – I’ve filled my quota. Today was small(ish) so I decided to go beneath the surface for a look around. This is what I found. The Volcom Pipe Pro waiting period […]
H.I.
Hey there. We’re still on ‘The Rock’ … Hawaii that is. This volcanic island beauty sitting out in the middle of the Pacific attracting so much swell – especially at this time of year. I guess there is nothing around to block swell and the islands pretty much stick right out of the ocean – […]
Sand bar
Hey there. Once again small small, but the little sand bar out the front of the shack producing some nice little waves – and don’t they all know about it here. It’s packed. Loads of pro juniors and WCT slashers hustling for waves. It’s nice here. The water is 26 degrees. How good is that. […]
7 mile…
Kinda strange day over here in Hawaii on the golden 7 mile stretch called the North Shore. Not many people around… Odd south wind seems to be hanging around, swell dropped a lot overnight (still 4-5 foot). Skies are grey and rain looks like it’s on the cards. The North Shore Surf Shop Pro Jnr […]
Lippy
Things change fast on the North Shore of Hawaii. Woke up, cruzy little 3-4 footer out the front, 2 out – lots of tubes. Ate Special K then shot my favorite shore break for an hour. Stopped in for the world’s largest coffee at Starbucks, wired, then by the time I got back to the […]

The surf here in Hawaii finally dropped off dramatically after 10 days of solid grunt (it is still 3 foot though). Thought I’d take this opportunity to show you something other than Pipe barrels. See here above is the Hawaiian Monk Seal – a critically endangered species. There are only 1,100 of these seals left […]
Black Shorts
All weekend here in Hawaii they’ve been running the Da Hui Back Door shoot out. All the big names are surfing – Bruce Irons, Jon Jon, Reef Macintosh, Tom Whits, Kalani Chapman just to name a few. It’s a different style of surf comp, teams based, no coloured vests, the new generation and some old […]
Live Aloha
Aloha. We’re in Hawaii. Love it here. We are based on the North Shore and I can see a guy in a Pipe tube as I write this. We’re going to be here a while, for something new and until Sydney stops raining. (wow, heard about them storms last night!) It’s been pumping in Hawaii […]
