Hi Surfers,

How has your week been? Full of surf I hope. There as been waves around all over the place. Even the northeast Coast has had swell all week. West Coast surfers have had a great week. The Nationals have been blessed with waves all week. The written coverage from Ben Kennings (the hard working PR guy for Surfing NZ) has been informative and interesting.

If you are feeling a bit cultured or in the need of a bit of culture, head to the Aotea Gallery in Auckland and check out some cool as New Zealand artist's work. I know two of them surf. In fact Darryn has been a contributor to surf.co. Check out their work at the gallery or have a look on line at Darryns art by clicking right here....
