South Africa

Got my ticket yesterday. I'll be in South Africa September 30th-October 7th. Start the journey in Capetown. Probably rent a campervan and do the Garden Route towards J-bay. Hoping to hook up with some fellow kneeboarders and mat surfers. So far, those are my only plans. Would love to hear some sugge...

Re: GG's Back with single fins

Scott, I was out during the first surf section of the video - that's me on the mat. This guy is a really good surfer to be sure. However, the video is sped up to make it look faster than it is. When he pulled up, I thought it was a spoon and thought I might finally get a chance to ride one. We talke...

thanks for the tips halbs.

when you say bring a camera to the doctor, is it because she's beautiful?

did you get cut up at the wave out front? checking out the youtube videos of waves in the area and other places look a bit more shallow

how did you get around to the other breaks? car rental?

I am available as board caddy. I have some experience and references!
Scott, maybe I can come out before the trip and help you harvest the cashews. That should free up a couple weeks for you to come too!

Indonesia in September

All, I was going to go to South Africa as a retirement gift to myself next September but I 've changed plans since I have to be in Hong Kong for a wedding then. It's only an extra $200 to fly to Bali from Hong Kong, so I guess I'll put off SA for a year and do Indonesia this year. Sounds like Bali w...

That time of year you're sure to score. I was there six or seven years ago. Inigo in Zarautz rolled out the red carpet for me! Thanks Inigo!!! Mundaka was on fire but I gave up after 45 minutes or so because of the crowd. Bumped into a friend on the cliff there and he told me about Rodiles - let the...
