Sunset Sons have been on our playlist since we interviewed them in Carve last spring and even more so since we did a surf trip with the boys last autumn. So we were stoked when Boardmasters caught up with and they performed this awesome live session of their track ‘Remember’. Check it out and see them at Boardmasters next month.
You call that a wave? This is a wave… “Made In Australia” is back with another episode that points west. Forget about the wineries and artisans of Margaret River, if you want to meet the true wildmen of West Australian surfing you need to head north, way north, to where desert meets ocean, and life gets a little raw. There’s not much more than salt air and red dirt where Ry Craike and Kerby Brown hail from, but they’re more than fine with that.
If you like slabs heaving over sharks and sharp reefs, then the boys will like you too. They’re like their mates Jay Davies and Dino Adrian, who pay the north-west a visit in this clip to join in the fun. It’s Croc Dundee goes surfing, and the boys wouldn’t have it any other way.
Alan Van Gysen has been Carve’s main man on the African continent for many years. He delivers gems from all angles, you’ll see two of his works opening up the imminent new issue. Come see how it all happens.
Meet the firefighter and family man who surfs Sydney’s scariest wave just for kicks. This is the first of a three-pack of episodes from Sydney’s Cape Fear. Here, in episode one, we introduce you to Justen Allport. He’s a firefighter and a family man, but he spends his free time surfing Sydney’s most notorious slab. The pursuit of big wave surfing is something that requires full-blown, head-down, halfway insane commitment. You need to give it everything you got. You need to live for it. You need to want this, and nothing else.
