Pipe 31 Jan '12 (Basheer)![]() Luke popping
Guys have got so used to surfing regularly with all the great weather and surf we've been having that they're still making the effort on the kakker days. Check out Tuesday's shots from Pipe.

Pipe 23 Jan '12 (Basheer)![]() Racing a clean one
Cool to see some new photags trying their hand at shooting the surf. It also means we get to see some new faces in the gallery. Check out Basheers shots from Pipe a while back.

Ang's Dec '11 shots![]() The money shot
Ang and computers don't get on to well, which means I get her shots popped into my mailbox on a flash drive. Which then means I missed all her Dec shots. She got some goodies though, so check em out here. Better late than never...

Pipe 23 Jan '12 (Ryan)![]() Josh with a closeout bash
Still some east swell persisting in the bay. The swell factory on the east coast is still pushing waves our way and will do so til next week. Gotto be one of the best summer's for surf in recent memory. Check out Pipe yesterday midday.

Pipe 22 Jan '12 (Rodney)![]() National Chop Hop day
Not too much else to do on the easterly lumps other than busting out the chop hops. Still, the water's warm so why not be in it. Getting a wave whilst having a swim with your board is just an added bonus. Rodney got some shots at Pipe.

Pipe 18 Jan '12 (Rodney)![]() Summer slash
Damn shame that the east has bliksemed the cyclone swell filtering through from Durbs direction. Cos had we been lucky enough to have had some west we would all be grinning from ear to ear. No worries, the ou's are still out at the Pipe.

Seals 15 Jan '12 (Stan)![]() Faye ripping
The beachie continues to dish up the goods, and luckily there're some equally good surfers to make the most of it. Check out Stan Blumberg's shots of Stan and Faye showing us how it's done.

Pipe 14 Jan '12 (Nick)![]() Paul laying into one
Fun lil swell around, and with the water still like your bath the guys were amped to spend the day in the surf. Luckily this included Nick, who's taking to water photography like the proverbial duck to water. Check the shots out here.
|
Pipe 13 Jan '12 (Nick)![]() Josh buried deep
Yet another tit day. Water still like your bath, so a perfect opportunity for Nick to swim out with his water housing and grab some lekker shots. Wouldn't say it was PE hey!?
|
Pipe 13 Jan '12 (Dirk)![]() Dane fin wafting
Dirk took the land-based option for shooting, leaving Nick to navigate the mayhem that is Friday arvo at Pipe. How no-one gets their pipped smashed out here amazes me, probably 50 peeps, plus big Dave on his tanker! Check the shots.

Pipe 11 Jan '12 (Rodney)![]() The Jiggy Jakes Jive
First day back at school today, so meant the arvo sessions was packed at Pipe (compared to not a peep in the water when I skated past there at 10h00!) Some fun lil ramps on offer so the locals were all over it. Rodney got the shots.
|
Pipe 8 Jan '12 (Rodney)![]() Bruce crippling an ankle-snapper
Ag well, summer had to end sometime I guess. And on Sunday it did....miffy east and hardly a wave in sight. Didn't deter the guys from making the most of the last of the holidays, and Bruce, Jakes and co were out there hunting lil waves. Rodney caught the action.
|
Seals 5 Jan '12 (Stan)![]() Chad flying high
Stan got some smoking shots of the guys having a jol at Seals yesterday. The light onshore made it punt city, with Chad du Toit taking down Punt of the Day honours. Check out the crazy sequence here.
|
Pipe 4 Jan '12 (Richard)![]() Paul getting air
Rich was down at Pipe on Wednesday as well, and got some great shots of the guys ripping the fun surf. Good to see some of the lighties starting to boost a bit, not long before they start nailing the landings...
|
Pipe 5 Jan '12 (Rodney)![]() Wayno shralping
Rodney grabbed some shots of the action down at Pipe on Thursday, still some fun waves about....and hey, the water's warm, the sun's out, so why not be in the water!?
Check out his shots here...appeared to be some nice "scenery" on offer as well! |
Pipe 4 Jan '12 (Dirk)![]() Any bets on the landing?
Dirk grabbed some shots of the summer chaos at Pipe in the arvo. A few ou's could surf, but the majority were more like floating speedbumps with no clue. Amazing no blood was shed, and everyone got some waves! Check it out.
|
Seals 3 Jan '12 (ML)![]() Grant was owning it
The swell finally arrived at Seals late arvo. Plenty of waves, but even more peeps! Grant Beck owned it, racking up a wave count that far exceeded everyone else combined. Pays to be local, neh. Check out the shots.
