Mr Motivators top Christmas gift

It has taken us a while to get the contact details for the agent who represents Derrick Evans (Mr Motivator). The plan was to give the Motivator a few products we sell and see which he liked the most. One product he really enjoyed was the Powerstroke Bungee Surf Training Device. This product is a resistance training tool for improving all upper body strength for surfing. It acts a bit like the resistance from the water when paddling for that perfect take off and wave. Once we gave this fitness product to Mr. M we couldnt get him off it.

We offer FREE European Delivery!

Thats right folks we are offering FREE European shipping on all orders. This means if you live in mainland Europe you can receive free delivery on all your surfing equipment, including wetsuits and all other goods we sell. This offer does exclude surfboards.

Porthtowan Surf Diary (Nice Banks)

The wind this morning was a strong southerly which helped produce some nice faced waves from the westerly swell. Due to the stormy weather over the last few days, this has sorted out the fickle sand banks of Porthtowan. Down at flat rocks the banks seem to be the best i have seen in ages and the lefts were peeling nicely. There was nobody out at all. Looks like the same windy conditions tomorrow and the swell is picking up slightly.

Hodei Collazo Wins Quiksilver Pro Portugal

Billabong’s Hodei Collazo Wins ASP 6-Star Quiksilver Pro Portugal
RIBEIRA DILHAS/ERICEIRA, Portugal (Sunday, October 24, 2010) Billabong’s Hodei Collazo (EUK) 26, claimed the ASP 6-Star Quiksilver Pro Portugal defeating good friend, Gony Zubizarreta (ESP) 25, in a high scoring final. This win It’s Hodei’s best result of his career.
This is an amazing feeling and I cant describe how it feels to win an event like this”, said Hodei “I have never gone further than the quarters, so to be in the final with my best friend and to win it is the best thing that has happened to me.
Hodei continued his excellent run on the final day beating ASP WT member Jeremy Flores (FR) in the quarter and Leonardo Neves (BRA) in the semi-finals.
I have had so much support from all the people here and also from all the people at home. It is really special and I want to say thanks to all of them for their support. I have taken the whole event heat by heat and tried not to think about my opponents and just focus on my surfing and the work ahead to be done.
The Zarautz resident notched up solid international performances as a junior, including a victory at the Billabong Pro Junior 6 years ago in Ericeira. After four years touring on the ASP Star and Prime Series, this win will help boost his confidence before heading to the WQS 6-Star Islas Canarias Santa Pro end of October.
Congratulations Hodei!
