Photo Dump / by craig levers

Last web log it was proclaimed, and intended, to get these things back on track. But then the surf got good, unseasonably good. I got committed to shooting, the combination of that and house guests, as lame as that reads even as it’s written I missed another due date.

Napes searching for unicorns

So this week is a bonus content web log, here are my top 30-ish images out of the 2,500 I shot last week.

Piha grub Maceo Thompson attacking the shorey

His older brother Matias mirroring

and their ol boy Beej is no slouch in the briny either

The Thompson lads

Probably my fav image from last week, Al Sanders absolutely searing around the base of a Bar screamer

The grubs scratching for the corner

Anyone know this soldier? Pretty sure he’s on a Ray Findlay twin with a green haul

Another local grub Seb has really hit his straps

Will Hardie hooking tight

a larger grom… Isaac Becroft

Jackson Peak freed the fins a of few

Bill Byers keeping it tight

Bourne Buirski harnessing his inner Sealtooth

Ever amped Chris Barron

12 year old Mountie Indi Corcoran hung for the week of offies

As did Taimana Bennett

His old boy Matty came along for the ride too

Indi again

The three Mountie musketeers; Lennox, Indi and Tai pre paddle out

Another grom that’s been hanging around and getting a fair bit of celebrity

Zeke Pragert is another Piha grom that’s really starting to be noticed in the line up

Will Hardie precision board placement

Former Piha resident and National Champion Andrew Robinson was on a tear this evening session - so good to see the 1997 champ hasn’t lost any of his flare

Speaking of flaring… Christian Fougere fins in the aforementioned position

Maceo with perfect board placement

Andrew Robinson dominating

Leia Millar style as always

Napes powering the pocket

Looks like we are in for more offshores for the rest of the week. See ya at the beach!
