No Waves + Exams = No Fun

The waves have been really bad this entire term. We are busy writing exams, so we only go surf on weekends. The last three weekends we have been doing alot of driving, but we havent scored any waves. We always just end up surfing 1ft, unsurfable Strand. Duncan's also been injuring himself lately. He smashed his head open at caves last weekend. His fin came out on a bottom turn on a fat wave and he got raped. He then went looking for another fin and some cool random guy gave duncan one of his. In the meantime, Slater won world title n0.10. Kelly is king.

Hopefully we will score some waves this coming weekend.
Here's some vidsnapshots and a short video of the past 3weeks:

R.I.P Andy Irons

So today at school Andrew Smith told me that Andy Irons passed away. At first I thought he was only making a bad joke, but then I checked on the ASP site and saw that it was true.

Andy was one of our faverite surfers, with the one of the sickest styles. He is a true surfing legend and we will never forget him.

From today it is our goal to surf with the passion and aggression and charge in memory of A.I.

Rest in peace, Andy

Fail

The past weekend was a complete failure. There was a sick swell predicted for the weekend with SE winds and we were amped to surf since there was ZERO swell during the week. We drove to koelbay on Sun morning to go surf. Beaches had a pathetic bank so we went to caves. Caves was heavy and just closing out. After a 30min surf at caves we decided to head back to Strand. We ended up bodysurfing hollow Silkies, which was alot of fun. Both of us only surfed about 4 waves at koelbay + the Sharks beat WP. Dissapointing weekend.

Our next project is to build a underwater housing for our vid camera so that we can get some barrol shots. Check out this site: http://web.media.mit.edu/~tim/pix/waterproofcamera.html

Hopefully our housing will be ready in about 2weeks time. Then we will upload some epic stuff.
