Crazy for the Storm
A book landed on my doormat today. From a PR company. Now, I’m a big fan of reading and a big fan of surfing, but often the books that I get sent don’t do either of them justice. This one is an exception.

Back in April I made a trip to the Mentawai Islands, which are situated several hours West of Sumatra in Indonesia. Usually with these sort of trips I’m hellbent on getting the best possible shots I can for whichever magazine I’m shooting for and don’t get to surf much.
There’s an old bumper sticker, seen around California a few years ago: ‘One Fin, One God, One Country’.
Here’s a quick run down of our favourite local breaks. If you spot us in the line-up, make sure you come and say hello…

I find myself here, on the West Coast of Africa, alone in search of something different. With the predicted swell I could have gone east; J-Bay, Billabong country. I could have stayed in Durban, watched the Quick pro and surfed the piers with the rest of them, too, but I wanted out, away from the brands, away from the pros, away from the hub and into the sticks.
I would like to see myself as a traveling artist/jeweler and my goal is to be able to create anywhere in the world with and on any medium available.
