The swell keeps hanging around… It seems like the waves havent got under 3 feet for over 2 months now. There were great waves over the weekend . I didnt pick up the camera on the weekend but had a great surf at Duranbah and surprised myself by picking up a few nice peaks in the school holiday crowd. Shaun Harington was out there ripping on an old brown board. I saw him on one wave, backdoor the peak taking off pigdogging goofy (switchfoot) and then switch foot back,...

It was pretty spooky and sharky down there as I...

Surf Photography really is a mugs game… It is, without a doubt, the cutting edge of Sports Photography and unfortunately the least paid. Its definitely a hard slog to make a living from it….and there are only a handful who do…. But as Marty Tullemans says ‘Your Office is the beach’ This is pretty cool for a number of reasons.

The Coolie Kids ….All grown up!!!

Posted in Gold Coast, News

There’s something quite surreal about living in Coolangatta and surfing Snapper Rocks aka the Super Bank all the time. Apart from being the most crowded wave in the world and believe me it can get so crowded it does seem unreal…….. Imagine if you were a golfer and went to your local Golf course to tee off and every time you turn around you bumped into one of the world’s top golfers!! This is what it’s like surfing Snapper, As you paddle around trying...
