Thanks for the link, brought back such memories..

I was a a grom when I watched an earlier final between Gigs and Roman at perfect 6-8 foot Supers on TV.. was certainly a defining moment for me. They were killing it..!

Instagram is my first foray into the social media world.. if you search for #tkfootprint there are a few pics of the waves and place too.

Cheers

Thanks guys.. That post on Realsurf was a great read and I've forwarded it onto some friends down in JBay who will definitely enjoy reminiscing about those days.. At least the surf in JBay is just as good as it always was. I traveled down to watch the final day of the ASP contest there last month an...

I have a house on the Wild Coast which is situated between Durban and J-Bay that I want to start taking small groups of surfers and family groups to next year. I am based near East London which is about 250kms from the house so I am looking at taking trips from there.. For a rate per day I will prov...

Mental..!

Certainly do-able.. You would probably have to fly into SA then catch a connecting flight to Windhoek in Namibia. From there either rent a vehicle (4x4 for sand) and drive the 300km+ to Walvis Bay where the spot is situated. There is a small landing strip there but I'm not sure what the set-up is wi...

Came across this and there's a fair amount of footage of an unknown Kneeboarder getting some decent ones at what must now be one of the worlds most sought after waves.. Heard it was a bit over-run up there last week for a much bigger swell.. It is an amazing wave though https://www.youtube.com/watch...

Pics are up in the boards album..

Will do Andy..

Got my new stick today.. 5'8"x 22 x 2 3/4

Looks like we have a few offshore days coming up so I can give it a go..

I had a few waves this morning on my mates board.. was about 2 foot and not heaps of power. I had a lot of fun on that little thing! It is way smaller than my board I am riding at the moment.. 8 inches shorter, an inch narrower and a bit thinner too but it was really easy to catch waves (I was weari...

That's the one.. Have you ridden that board Steeno?

Will do Terence.. hopefully there'll be a few decent waves on offer..

The thing is Terence those keel fins situated way in the back and near the rails are an inherent part of the Simmons design and theory.. check this out http://rusty.com/us/blog/2010/02/23/talking-design-with-rusty-bob-simmons-and-hulls-part-i/ and it's only the fin placement that worrys me from a Kn...

A friend of mine down the coast has been making a few mini simmons boards lately (for footboarders) a mutual friend up here where I stay has been riding one pretty solidly for the last couple of months and it really goes well for him.. the board is absolutely lightning fast and making long flat sect...
