Got an unusual call up from Mark Matthews who had some froth to come tow a swell in WA...

Finally after months of being in limbo I've signed with Zero Bodyboards; who I can already see as being a long and fruitful relationship.

I've returned home from a trip to Sydney for a week filming for a new Grand Flavour podcast.
Most exhausting week of my life trying to nail everything in the short time we had to do it. We were blessed with some epic beach break waves which we were so lucky to get, and the footage of all the boys came out amazing.
Even got to poke my head in at the Shark Island event before I left and get on the commentary for a short stint.
Oh, and here's a nice little punting shot at Mandurah in the last Rippies - one of my favourite shots I've ever had.

Bam and his crew at Sydney Airport. Not sure what they were here for, but I think they just all flew in to watch the Island comp.
Congrats Hardballs!

Making my way east on Monday to work on shooting the new summer range with the Grand Flavour team guys down there. Also filming and creating a podcast for a DVD featuring on the Movement DVD at the end of the year.
From what I can see the swell isn't looking too good, which is a massive disappointmen,t but we've had to hit and hope for this one 'cause Ben and Winny leave for Europe soon.
Got some other cool stuff lined up to shoot anyway, so there'll be something we can do while we are down there.
One day of waves would be perfect to top it off, so here's hoping I guess.

Just got back from a two day trip down the coast filming for Soak the Sponge and nailed some really good stuff. There was drama, deep terrain 4WDing, ski's, flash's, great times and some deep pits and big punts at a new wave we found.
Also, check out the new Le Boogie it has some sweet treats for all to enjoy.

Hey everyone!
I just got back from Bali, which I'll be informing you all about in a few days. While I was gone I found myself back in the papers; it was the Sunday Times (Perth) this time, which has a pretty huge readership.
Also, Brendo Backshall sent me a pic of a double page spread that was ran in the latest issue of French mag, Bodyboard Magazine.

I couldn't be more happier with how things are going right now and I've still got a few more tricks left up my sleeve as well...
Amped to show you all the happenings from my Bali trip too - so stay tuned!
