Durban Summer Bowls

Hot as Hell!

For everyone living in Durban at this moment, they know it's been unbelievably hot and pretty small waves. We've been fortunate , at least, that there have been one or two bowl waves around to please the appetite slightly but we are in need of some swell. I think we've only had a one slight cyclone swell to hit the coast here this year, and usually by now we would've had a few more. No sure if it's El Nino, global warming or what but things are changing. The Northern Hemisphere and especially the Pacific have had the craziest run of swell recently starting from around the beginning of December until now. Granted it's been their winter time so hopefully that means we're in for a solid winter. Surfing this morning, I was just looking at all the construction going on around North Beach and once they've got it all fixed up and the pipes are pumping sand out of the piers, we really could be in for some crazy times. Only time will tell but I'm super excited. Sand pumping can only be a good thing especially with the lack of sand on the banks right now, bring it on!

I'm still in the country for just over 3 more weeks, new baby due in just over 2 weeks time. Pretty crazy times ahead but looking forward to it!!! Next event up for me is Tasmania, 1st event of the Oneill Coldwater Classic series. Going to be meeting up with Shaun Gossmann and Royden Bryson. This will be my first time to Tasmania, really like the fact that I'm still going to new places after being on tour for this long. But before then , Oakley are having a launch party down in Cape Town on the 4th March which i'll be flying to for the night, they always put on a good show!

Will be posting up some new footage soon from this last week of surfing , some pretty small waves stuff but it's what we've had the last few weeks.

Cheers

Back home...

So I'm back in good old SA now, my Brazil stint didn't prove to worthwhile but that's how some trips go, you win some and you lose some. Obviously you try win more than you lose, you try to at least. So I'm back now for about 6 weeks, have our second addition to our family popping out on the 16th March so it's just getting everything prepared now for her birth and also getting myself ready for a second one... Hahaha nah, just kidding, I'm ready, frothing for our newest daughter to come into this world...
Some say it's easier second time round, some say it's harder, know what, that's life and we're all along for the ride so whatever gets thrown at you, you try deal with it to the best of your ability. And then you ask for help...

But until then, hopefully I can score a few waves, really need to try get some barrels under the belt, feels like I haven't had any in ages. I see they scored epic waves for the Pipe event while we were in Brazil! Any ways, got a little mini vid going to post up now.

Hit me up if you know of any spots going to be happening any time soon...

Enjoy
