Gold Coast - Quiky Pro Event
Sometimes, but hardly ever, Professional Surfing and all its trials and tribulations can be a bit of a drag. Time spent away from family, friends and home, the constant travel, airports and adjusting to time zones while competing are definitely downsides in an otherwise incredibly exciting and rewarding career.
Gizzy Pro
I flew back from Manly a couple of days before the Gissy event and managed to squeeze in a couple of training sessions with my trainer Emmerson. When I'm home I love to train boxing and other martial arts and find it an awesome preparation and point of difference for my surfing.
Madness in Manly!!
I flew direct from the Burleigh WQS event in the Gold Coast to the Australian Open at Manly, Sydney. Upon arrival at Manly, I hooked up with fellow Fox rider Robbie France and Fox team manager Kade Taylor. Robbie has a sick pad out at Collaroy, about twenty minutes north of the comp site.
