Saltmotion - Sydney

I came across Saltmotion in Sydney. Not because I was in Sydney unfortunately :( They have some great surf pictures in their galleries and I'm particularly loving this one from the longboarding gallery:

Shaping Tools

I came across the BoardRoom - Legends of surfboard shaping facebook page (via the Finshack facebook page) and saw this great photo of a planer.

That's it really, just thought it was a really nice picture :)

Update: Here's a trailer to the movie...

Pictures From the Archive

I've had a bit of time spare this morning (hence a few blog posts today!), so I took the liberty of trawling through some of my old photos. It's good to do this from time to time. Brings back all sorts of good memories and fun times.

Now the keen eyes among you will recognise this cheeky chappy as a young monical sporting wonder Uncle Knob Head. A triumph in photoplopping the original cutout :)

Here's me man Nick Glarvey from Uni who I haven't seen in years! Sorry Nick - it's a horrific photo but a true beauty none the less! What a room. I shared this room with Nick for a year. You'll note the 5ft dinosaur hanging from the ceiling (Malcom) and the telly cabinet is beer cans :) Behind the telly was a wall, top to bottom, of cans as well...

And Steed (from Uni too) with Nick on his screen. Steed's a top man and had an uncanny resemblance to the Edge. His ability to drink and get me into mischief was outstanding - I refer you to the time we had scale a very high wall to escape a mental institution.

We were stripping the walls in the bedroom some time back and as we pulled a section off, a lump of plaster came off with it. Needless to say, Nic jumped in and enhanced the shape a little. This stayed there for the best part of 3 years!

Here I am trying out my new bike at Plozeath in Cornwall. It was a good bike, but to be honest, I just couldn;t get on with the brakes...

Nic showing off that her camper was used in a calendar :)

And in an attempt to make it fair on Nick Glarvey, here's me looking at my most intelligent at a fireworks night round at Phil the Pigs...
