Majority of bugs squashed

Two weeks after the launch of our new format I'm glad to say that all the bugs I was aware of have been fixed...

New format is now live

Our new format went live on 01 September 2007, just in time for Spring.

The Coffee Shop

It's been a while since I've sat by myself in a coffee shop. It was a favourite pass time when I used to work in the city center. You get to see some of the city's most amazing shows. Not the kind that's rehearsed but the type of show for which there is no cover charge, the stage is everywhere and the actors don't take a bow.

Hit The Road Jack: Mossel Bay

Get behind the wheel and take a trip to Mossel Bay with us. Experience fog horns, joy riders and hammer heads as we divide the Boere Wors Curtain.

Commitment: 745's got it

Commitment is what makes you paddle out in icy cold conditions, it's also what stops you from sampling foreign g-strings in night clubs the evening before a surf, take a ride in Clint's mind as 745 helps him explore further.

METAMORPHOSIS: From Foam to Freedom

Join us as we delve into the mysterious art of surfboard manufacture. Don your face-masks people, we're about to get foamy!

Cruizing Asphalt

There is something about traveling no more than four inches off the ground at 60km/h and sliding around a hairpin corner that really gets ones blood boiling.

YOU SAID WHAT ?

OK people, let's face the facts… either you love us or you hate us. Either way we're happy just as long as you're talking about us!

The Soul Food Store

Surfing is more than just competitions, moves and boards. Surfing as an art form inspires us in many ways - we've put together some articles about the deeper side of our lifestyle. Read them and feed your soul…

The Wall of Shame

Sometimes we do things when we think nobody is watching - things like picking your nose while in traffic, or wearing no undies when visiting the Mall. Next time you go for a surf, beware, we'll be watching and we won't hesitate to pin you to the Wall of Shame for posterity…

OverXposed

Surf spots around the planet all have a few underground rippers who don't care about being famous or winning competitions - they surf because they love to. In OverXposed we profile these diamonds in the rough…

Strandloper

Ever heard the phrase “Take a trip down memory lane”? Surfers don't do that, the only lane we use is the one that leads to the ocean, instead we talk a walk down the beach where the only thing we leave behind are our footprints…

Stop Motion

JULY 2006

Eish bru… the Redbull BWA 2006 event was the toughest shoot I've ever done! Fighting heaving stomachs and diesel fumes is one thing, but trying to shoot with a 500mm lens on a monopod while the boat pitches like a drunken sailor takes the cake…

AUGUST | SEPTEMBER 2006

Yowser! Kalk Bay was insane this session, beautiful blue water, phat crisp barrels and mainly the bodyboarders charging. Shot of the session: kneeboarders vs THE PIT…

OCTOBER 2006

Long Beach - the bane of many Cape Town surfers - fat farts on longboards and the psycho grommets who hassle them. However you can still find a few gems between the crowd…

NOVEMBER 2006

Mossel Bay - home away from home, warm water, friendly locals, pretty girls and sharks… what more could you ask for? How about sick waves and someone willing to miss out on them to take pictures?
