Greg Budgen wins the KSA circuit

Congrats to Budgie for winning the 2010 KSA circuit, personally i think he owes all of us in the west since it
was our competition in Dec 09 at Secret Harbour that got him warmed up for his big win (and i do remember Blair taking the honours that day)....anyway well done and remember to let us all know if you
head west again so we can rig the next comp

AN EARLY SUMMER

as the weather warms up and the crowds swarm down to the beach, getting a wave to yourself is
becoming increasingly more difficult, i have resorted to 4.30am starts and mid week trips.....
here are some pics of surfing without a crowd. have fun guessing where each pic was taken...
but included is a pretty big morning at the farm where i got to surf all alone plus some of lano

Hawaii 3

Hawaii 2

Hawaii

Hawaii has been fantastic so far.

Took a boat trip to watch the lava flow into the ocean at sunset... amazing!

Waves have been small but managed only one surf so far.

Have been to Kona - Big Island which was my favourite place so far... very laid back!

The photo of the bay showed some real potential but too small to surf!

Currently in Maui which has some nicer beaches but more up market.. hotels everywhere... but crowds no problem. Off to North Shore on Wednesday but I think the comp is on so I may have to drop in on Taj and Co at Pipe. Do you think they will get angry?

The water temperature here is amazing. I is refreshing yet warm enough to stay in all day.

Hope to get some waves soon.
