New Years Resolution

I did quite a bit of traveling over Christmas and New Years. Marthinus and I did a short road trip to Stilbaai and Mossel Bay. We scored some good waves and had a good time chilling at the Lappies Baai campsite with everyone.

Over New Years we missioned up to JBay. We stayed at the Hard Rock Backpackers for 7 days. It's probably one of the coolest backpackers I've seen. It has a sick theme and a great bar in the backyard where we spent most of our time. The ocean was completely flat though. The waves were 1ft everyday and there were way too many people out in the water. I surfed Cape St. Francis the one day, which was a bit bigger, but everyone was out there. It was as if there was a Junior series comp on. All the sponsored groms and older guys were there.
