Posted on Friday July 23rd at 10:04 a.m.

Storm Surfers in New Zealand wouldn’t have been possible without – you guessed it – Doug Young and Shayne Baxter. Lucky for them they came across two kiwis that redefine the parameters of surf exploration. You couldn’t ask for a better mix of experience, blind courage, and good humour.

The Light of Day

History. What's come before. Surely the past must maintain an absolute presence in the here-and-now of our surfing lives? And yet, no matter how good it was yesterday, I still wanna surf again today!

After seeing Moroccos culture and beauty in a film a few years back now I had decided then and there I wanted to visit this place now the dream lives, 6 months of soaking in the culture and experiencing what the rugged coastline has on offer.
