Captain Fin Co. Insight, Raised By Wolves, Jai & Matt

We were lucky enough to be invited by good friend Matty Chojnacki over the harbour to Mona Vale, where Insight and Raised By Wolves held an event at The Concrete Crayons Gallery launching the new Captain Fin Co. range of fins , being distributed in Australia by Noosa Stylemaster Jai Lee. The Fins are SICK! Matty C has them in his shop or you can get em from Jai's online store directly.
Patt Capocci started off the night with an awesome rockabilly set, we were then entertained by new flicks You Scratched My Anchor and , the hottest longboard movie I have probably ever seen, in Picaresque. If you haven't got a copy, get one , NOW!

The night was capped of by northerne beaches band Sunroom who were just awesome.
Thanks to all involved on putting on a great night, us southsiders had a great night and we look forward to the next event.

A good night seemed to be had by all.

Vico Trip - High Tide Surfboards

I was lucky enough to get the opportunity to go to Victoria for the last week to stay with Jordie Brown, owner of High Tide Surfboards, Skenes Creek, Vico.

Our plan was to surf till we dropped , and mix that up with shaping me a few new boards.

Over the week we surfed Kennett River & Kennett Rivermouth ( so sick, with Killer Whales to boot ), The Elliot ( dodgiest place i have ever surfed ), Lorne Point, Apollo Bay Breakwall ( till 9.30pm under lights from the pier ), 13th Beach & Wye River.
I got to catch up for a few surfs with Oscar Lalor and his family and they were good enough to have us over for dinner 1 night.
We ended up shaping a new Log, a new HP and a new Shorty. Jordie is going to glass them and finish them off for me to pick up early in the new year. Can't wait to get my hands on them. Jordie's done an awesome job and they are gonna go sick!
Thanks Jordie for an awesome week, and thanks to Marley for sharing the couch with me, I'll be back sooner than you think.
Here's a few pics.
