Bottles & Barrels

Early morning session post coffee and breakfast and pre 9-5 blues...we were hounded by intense stingers smashing my forearm 3 times over.

Some fun waves to be had on both shortys and logs. Matt Johnson of The Sea Life was on hand to capture the windswell with my buddy Ellis Ericson

1966 VC Valiant Regal

The Volvo Skeg Shred Trip

Few basic snaps of the first part of a little 'escape the bogans' roadtrip up the coast. Ellis Ericson and Josh Simpson were on board and some super clear water tubular swells were encounntered.

Sydney Rockers

Stumbled across some vintage images of a group of eclectic rockers who held onto the 50's style of music, cars and kustom kulture in general. These shots were taken in the 1980s.

Sick rods out front, leather jackets hot rod club name embroided on the back

Unreal quiff action!

Tropical illusions

~Good waves an make or break a nice day. Today the light was insane, the sun was shining, people were about and my car was running well...but the wind was hideous and swell non existent- luckily Andy Green was around to capture waves we scored in one of those secret coves you have to hunt out~

Bullitt Car Chase

Bullitt is a movie which contains the best car chase in movie history.
The scene had Bullitt in a dark "Highland Green" 1968 Ford Mustang 390 CID Fastback, chasing two hit-men in a "Tuxedo Black" 1968 Dodge Charger R/T 440 Magnum.

Do yourself a favour and find this movie, the cars are inspirational to watch in action

Shan Herring OFF THE CHAIN

I guess growing up on the same stretch of beach as this fella has hightened my facination with his style and unique approach to power surfing. Being pretty freakin stocky and a powerhouse of his short time on tour in the early 90s- he still throws buckets and gets so very vertical it is an inspiration to me everytime. Here is a super old school 90s flick of him tearing the living daylights out of Dee Why Beach, Sydney.

Captain Launch- Sydney

The venue was Concrete Crayons and it was a sick night indeed. We had two fresh loggin' movies playing- Picaresque and You Scratched My Anchor

Pat Capocci the rockabilly wizz played a great set with Sunroom finishing off the night. Free beers and alot of alcohol supplied by Hugh from Bondi, Captain fins and shiiz from jai and artwork and pictures by Sean Finnelly, Jai Lee, Haydn Lewis, James Mclean and myself.

Thanks to Raised by Wolves, Insight and Haydn Lewis, Rad Dan, Concrete Crayons and Jai the Captain man. And all the people who made the trip across the bridge to the event- we will have another soon enough. Heaps of pics to follow these too!

Last Night was Valiant

Heres a fish eye of my car by Onorati. Used it last night in a collage for the movie premier and Captain Fin Launch, some amazing pictures to follow on. Such a greta night!

Chonoski for CRAP

Skateboarding is a crime

Richie Jackson was arrested on the grounds of Sydney Grammar School looking for somewhere to sleep after a big night at the Zero premier apparently. SIIIICK shot regardless

Loggin' Rides by A. Marks

The day was pretty nice, the waves nothing great...but the sunset was beautiful. A little bank i frequently surf in the summer time was kind of doing its thing, worth a slide on a hot day anyway. As the summer style crowd dissapeared, the sunset began to glow. The lens came out just in time to shoot these shots to end the day. See more of these style of photos at Alex's website http://www.bluesnapper.com.au/

Frothing all over these. Australia has just got the shipment distributed by Mike Hayes and bros from Freshy... these things are way oversized and mackin with steeze. Get some CRAP on your face this summer, im all over it already. Its fun to see some good quality alternatives from the small black wayfarers.
