El Jimador 100% Agave Surf Classic - Beautiful Surf boards

This weekend was the 100% Agave Surf Classic at Big Bay, check out http://www.ustream.tv/channel/agave-surf-classic The work that went into these boards is incredible. These boards are shaped and made by two of our Kommetjie locals, Jason Hayes and Ian Armstrong. Watch the video to see the love and hard work that went into making them! if I could have a board it would be this.Those who surfed are automatically entered into a draw and every week can win one of these beautiful 100% Agave surfboards.

Indonesia

My man is away, on his surfing sabbatical *sigh. (That is a sigh for, I miss him) I just googled pictures of where he is. He's in the Tsunami devastated, malaria infested jungles of Nias. check out this perfect wave...

What I've been up to.

Hey bloggers!, what have you been up to? I've been away. I went to Jo'burg. my new favourite place. The energy's HIGH and the people are FUN. It restored my faith in humanity and/or South Africans. It's the first time I met Tswana people. I can't quite believe it. Cape Town feels so small when you get back. the bubble that is the western cape. But I still love you Cape Town, you are my favourite child. I went the Pilanesburg Game Reserve and chilled out with some elephants (cool sentients) I visited Sun City and swam in the Valley of Waves (realizing my childhood dream, at last) I went up the West Coast to surfer's paradise. we SUP'd, while the boys surfed. the sunsets out there are incredible. and on the interim i guess i've been working and gigging and getting ready for Afrika Burn. Our team has got a pop up cinema, and we're going to be showing movies. So yeah, that's me in a nutshell. the short version. I hope your Easter was cool and you got to do some relaxing. Here are some pics from my travels. x
