Last time we saw Brad we thought... Okay here we go we get it. We didn't. Take a look and start thinking. Not about the box and what it's made of. In fact throw the box away you don't need it. You need this. Lets go people raise the bar... ...

Made from over 2000 still images - no video, "Glow" from Donovan Frankenreiter, highly tuned surfer-musician, ambassador of good vibes. All photographs how about that? Fo once we believe the hype. It's really hard to capture a vibe... But in some sense you can find it here. Good moves, good moods and an eye for the world that is uncommon... More power to the `D... ...

The forecasts are good for the upcoming big return to Tavarua and Cloudbreak. The big trades are backing away and surf looks set to top the 3-5 foot range as the comp begins. The Volcom Stone is weaving it's magic and the rhunes look good. If it continues as it starts the playing field will be set and the comp decided on pure performance... The very thing we had all hoped for. It may not turn into whomping ...

The surf is a little bit junky to begin with but there are waves. The big tides and fickle sand banks and winds makes surfing around here a game of constant attention. If you stay on top of it you can find the spots. But that doesn't always make for the best comp conditions... There is a little luck involved. But luck may be a lady because conditions are set to stay and get a bit cleaner. It doesn't look li ...

The Volcom Fiji Pro will undoubtedly be one of the world tour ASP highlights of the year. A far flung Atoll where the rocking high rollers of world surfing will cruise into view for a week make loads of mess and money and piss off again. Or at least that can be the perception? Volcom have never been short on attitude and direction. So it's good to see that energy applied to putting a bit back. Island life i ...

The tension is mounting and it's time to look to the charts... Come o ...

One of the sexiest places in Europe made so by the vibe, the girls, Le Surf. And it's about to get another fix of world class action as the major part of the top female talent arrives for the Swatch Girls Pro. So what about the surf?

As it came to the quarters Matt Wilkinson was left facing the tougher end of the draw with form man Gabriel Medina in his way. Not the greatest of conditions but Wilko edges through. Kai Otton makes it to the semi's as does Kolohe Andino with a quality win over Alex Ribeiro. Nate Yeomans duked it out with Hawaiian Keanu Asing and lost by half a point. The semi's were all about Kai Otton and Matty Wilkinson ...

Mike Prickett has done some stuff. It takes a lot to be a cinematographer. If you aren't one you won't really understand the depth of knowledge and creativity required. But believe me it's a lives worth and covers pretty much everything. If you are, then you know how hard it is to take all that on and into the water and be any good at all. Never mind a world leader. Well Mike is that. Or at least he was til ...
