    Quik Pro Highlights Reel...

    Dane_reynold_quik_pro The dust has settled from the Quik Pro but here's a last little slice of gold to remind you of the good times... An epic little edit from the Quik folk of all the besterest waves from the event. Loving Bede's keg at the end. Roll on Bells...

    Reubyn Ash Ripping, Like Really Ripping...

    ReubynAsh Lil Reubs has spent the last few months in Indonesia. The ideal retreat for pro's to train for the new season, work on new airs and generally get a nut brown tan. On the subject of the new 'Reuby Spin' air (looks new to me) I asked Julian Wilson and he reckoned Ozzie Wright's done similar, so if anyone has a copy of the Waves 7 Days 7 Slaves dig it out and let us know... Sick vid follows anyhoose-

    A Story Where Your Correspondent Nearly Sank: The Curse Of The Conch...

    Conch (Originally published in SE 2003ish) 

    Rule 37 of surfing: Not all surf trips go to plan. 

    The further away you are from civilisation, the more this rule applies.

    Of course it helps if you either a) had a plan in the first place, or b) knew someone that had any idea what the plan was.

    When you are bobbing around on a boat in the Indian Ocean, within spitting distance of the equator, you are far from civilisation. The nearest settlement, featuring basic facilities, is somewhere in Australia, India or some war-torn bit of rubble in East Africa. 

    This far out, the rule is law.

    Bruce Irons In Indo...

    Bruce_Irons_Indo_surfing Two words to bring a smile to your dank, freezing, Wednesday morning- One is 'Bruce' the other is 'Indo'. So get a cuppa and a mildly stale hobnob and enjoy 2-minutes of pure escapism...

    What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Stronger......... (Is A Stupid Expression)

    Jaws_surfing_wipeouts Think tow-in is easy? Just glorified water-skiing eh? Well watch this clip and then judge. Whilst the skill of paddling and taking off on a wave is removed you still need to be fecking fit and experienced to handle these kind of doughnuts... As for what the dude on the SUP is up to???
    Clip after the jump-

    ChatRoulette- Genius Or Downright Disturbing Weirdness?

    Chatroulette The web has always been a strange place full of weird and wonderful concepts and people. The latest in a long line of freak shows is an addictive/horrifying website that goes by the name of ChatRoulette. The premise is simple, it does pretty much what it says on the tin, in that you can chat with entirely random people. Be they naked, a Nazi, Rick Astley or the more normal regulation bored looking fat guy. Check it out but don't blame me if you see things you might not want too...

    Surf Photo 101- Line Ups...

    Ireland_PmpaAction shots featuring a surfer date. 
A good line up, however, is timeless. This pic from Ireland is over 10-years old and I never get bored of it. It's also sold well, featuring in countless magazines and as the main image for the Quiksilver Masters event in Bundoran.
To take a good line up you don't need fancy wide angle lenses or water housings, nor do you need a crazily expensive big lump of Canon glass. You just need a camera. Any camera. Even a compact...

    Come Back With Your Shield... Or On It.

    Bourez I first saw Michel Bourez (aka The Spartan) surf somewhere in the outer islands of Tahiti on an O'Neill Mission trip. This was before he qualified for the tour. There was no doubt in mind back then as he pulled into crazy kegs and launched air reverses on near dry coral head end sections that he was destined for big things... Click below for the clip-
