south africa 07

Pics taken on my recent trip to South Africa. Featuring Big Bay near Cape Town and Supertubes at Jefferys Bay. Unfortunately i did not take my camera to Yzerfontain where i rode a perfect 6ft A frame peak all to myself in blazing sunshine.
Not the best pics:
- Big Bay too far away and im hidden by the wave in front.
- Supertubes its before sunrise so the light is bad and in my excitement to get in the water i set the camera up wrong hence the unintentional slow shutter work.
Almost forgot this one. WBP abroad.

Probably would have been the best of my pics if it wasn't for the unintentional slow shutter work. 4of5. Grrr

This was the beginnings of a cutback on my last long long wave, riding it further down the point. Paranoid and not wanting to push my luck, i got out after this wave.
