Surfing with icebergs around and snowy mountains would be so surreal. That video on the mainpage of riptide of NZ is sweet.

wow, maybe the guy on the phone at cathay pacific wasn't joking ($42 per kg was his quote). I talked to my local travel agent though and they said that if it's only a few kilos over it shouldn't be a problem.. At most I'm only gonna be 5 kgs over or so. Bodyboarding gear + jackets + tshirts is all I'm taking in my main bag anyway.

Also it's a bit too late to send stuff to sydney... :P

Pack everything that is heavy in your carry on bag. Shoes, fins, whatever. Then act like its as light as a feather. 5kg is a fair bit but you could chop if off if you pack smart.

all good in the end, main bag comes up to 23kg so that shouldn't be a problem, and it's just gonna be shirts/jocks 'n' socks/laptop in the carry on, so too easy :D
