Pierre is one of the world's most naturally dynamic wave riders, but he ate noodles in the ghetto with all of us, hungry to wrestle a profile for himself and the rare ability to dream large. This ep is reflective for Pierre, and emotional for us both, as we remember our email exchange in September 2006 (Pierre, 16 and clawing in on his future - myself having filmed The Road months earlier, wo...

A pretty basic phone call - having a laugh but trying to be honest about our current state of life; both of us. We discuss the illusion of building a better life, or a better self - in opposition to being here now. One to contemplate. We also talk  career,  life decisions,  things happening for a reason,  a true partnership with a spouse,  the sometimes intrusive issue of doubt and guilt  the insi...

As core as it gets, I'm so thankful this lad is my friend, and what a heartfelt friendship it is. No convo topic off the table, Timmy is your Barnesy to the South Coast, Stoker to Cali & Mickey to the Atlantic. His Boogie Nation vids inspired a generation of Hawaiians, yet his greatest work is unfolding as we speak; shouldering grief with gob-smacking integrity and incredible authenticity...

Wayne Bell's life changed the moment his mum suggested he buys Rush 'Class of 99' at the age of 7, from Helensburgh Newsagent. 30 years later Roots Bodyboarding will bring back the theraputic boog film - team trips and small town premieres. The dream's alive!

Aware of his dad's legacy Jesse now teaches behaviourally challenged & emotionally disrupted kids while knifing slabs & smacking flips during school hols. An eye for photographic nuance and plenty of c...

Amazing chat with this true boog lord. 1km paddles in pre-sunrise baitballs, 14 years married & wrestling his lifelong SIC dream at the age of 44. So sick. Tile image: Paul Humber

Cohen Thomas is likely the answer to our cries “where are all the hardcore young boogers these days” Compared to the early 2000’s there appears to be less in number, but maybe Cohen & his brother make up for a few dozen given the airs n pits they're piloting. Imagine surfing 6-10 foot flat bottom pits in the middle of nowhere for 10 hours straight. Literally 10 hours straight. That’s Cohe...
