Surfing legend Jamie O’Brien has notched out an amazing career on social media platforms, documenting the pleasure and in this case the pain of surfing Pipeline and beyond. Seeing some of the craft he’s sent himself over the ledge on it’s a wonder he doesn’t spend more time in A&E. Entertaining as always, get well soon JOB.
Sonic Souvenirs is a series of portraits that takes us on an exploration of art, music and surfing with Mikey February. Our first episode trails Mikey close to home journeying up and down the East and West coast of South Africa. A spiritual - almost mystical visual experience with his natural environment.

The Ink has dried; Australian Powerhouse Wade Carmichael cements his relationship with wetsuit manufacturer C-Skins for three more years.
Championship tour regular Wade has spent the last three years head-to-head with the worlds best and has consistently stood out with his awe-inspiring brand of power surfing, winning Rookie of the year as a freshman in 2018 and consolidating his position on the tour, regularly placing in the top 10 through-out 2019.
Wade couldn’t be happier about remaining in the C-Skins fold. “I’m super stoked to be continuing the relationship with an awesome wetsuit company run by great people.” says the humble 28 year old. “The wetsuits have always performed so well for me, so I feel really confident jumping back into them.”
As an elite surfer, Wade understands the importance of having the proper hardware around him – “Having full faith in my equipment is so important to me. Wearing C-Skins wetsuits on the colder stops on tour gives me a real advantage and great confidence to perform at my peak.”
“Wade continues to be a great fit for C-Skins,” explains Mark Brown, Technical Director at C-Skins. “Wade has always enjoyed wearing our suits, and his feedback to our design team has helped to move our products forwards, so we’re stoked to have him staying on.”
Both Wade and C-Skins are looking forward to an exciting future ahead.
Slow it down to 300 frames per second with John John, sit back and slide easy into the weekend with the style master Mr Florence, nice.
The surf conditions were incredible this winter in France, and with the pandemic, all of the best locals surfers were there to put on a show.
