Mundaka was and always is a long drawn out event. Because the wave only breaks an hour and a half either side of the low tide each day, the event can only run half days and it also need a fair bit of swell to even start braking. I was surprised we got to start round 1 on the 1st day of the waiting period. I had a good heat, with some fun little Mundaka tubes. Then came 6 lay days in a row. When i finally got to surf round 2 i was the last heat of the day and it was boarder line too dark toward the end. I ended up losing in a close heat to KP. In the end a 17th was ok, but i would of like to gone further.

Now off to Portugal to hopefully get some tubes at Super tubes.

I’m in France and the event just finished. I’m happy with a 5th, my best result of the year so far. My boards were going very good and the waves were small but fun. I felt like I could have gone further if I got better waves in my quarter. I’ve got a week off now to enjoy France before the next event starts in Spain.

Hey guys, I’m in America and have surfed in the Hurley Pro. The waves for the 1st 2 rounds were pretty bad. Then the surf got better for the 3rd round but my heat was at the change of tide & I only caught 2 waves because it was so inconsistent. I have been working on my surfing and I felt like I showed it a little bit in my heat against Dane. I’ve had a good time, seen some good movies and watched a baseball game in San Diego. Now its off too Europe where we have 3 events back to back.

Hey guys just got back from my trip to Brazil and Africa, Brazil was at a different time of year this year and it was heaps colder than usual. The waves didn’t get very good but I got to surf against Slater, which was a good experience. Africa was really good. We got a great swell and the point had a lot of sand over the reef so it was lining up really good with lots of tubes. I had my best result of the year so far with a 9th so it gives me some confidence for the rest of the year. Now I’m off to Bali for 10 days
