Well its been a busy 6 months, trips to the snow and my first trip to the South Island ever! I taught myself how to build websites using the Joomla! CMS and there’s more things I want to come to grips with yet. I have plans for this site too, next year should realise them. For now, its summer and Christmas is two weeks away!

A few photos below, after a day spent with a few friends at one of our favourite beaches last weekend. Days like this keep me stoked to be a bodyboarder, hours of fun in perfect waves.

Surfing in Raglan is a fairly popular sport, but today Manu Bay was for ’spectators only’ as this big wave swell was pouring into the points. Big enough I thought to warrant getting my camera out and taking a few photos. There is actually a jetski out in this shot, the waves were so big towing in was about your only hope of getting a ride. You can also spot the Raglan Surf School bus parked up by the boat ramp.

Took my jetski out to the bar this morning, paddled into a few with my brother Paul. Conditions were perfect, warm water, super glassy and calm making for some great tube rides.

Looking north towards Mussel Rock and beyond, from my home in Raglan.
