sitting in Taipei


I am flying home right now, sitting in an airport in Taipei on my way back from a 2 week shoot with Rip Curl throughout Indonesia while on  the search for some new waves and uncrowded perfection.  We had a blast on the trip.  Got to surf everyday which isn't always the case while trying to find new waves and surfed for the most part by ourselves.  It was my first real boattrip and I forgot my Dramamine so I was seasick a lot.  Once my sealegs got strong I did ok for the most part.  Nothing a couple trips to teh edge of the boat couldn't fix!  Anyways, just sitting in teh airport with a bowl of Udon noodles and editing away.  Here's a screengrab of the boat and one of the waves we surfed by ourselves for a few days.  Look for the images from this story to appear in some upcoming Rip Curl campaigns as well as Surfer and Australian Surfing Life magazines.  I owe a big thank you to the guys at Rip Curl for choosing me to be on the shoot and our captain and crew for keeping us safe.
