Gallery

I've uploaded some oldies and some different perspectives of old photos onto the sixty40 (http://www.sixty40.co.za/) gallery to share some love with the rest of SA, who don't view Sheepalign. Thought I might as well post them here for some entertainment. Swell is looking promising tomorrow, hopefully the boys bring back some photos. Sweetness.







Throw some comments around as we lurv hearing what people are thinking when browsing the photo's, or if you enjoy them. Bodyboard or Die!

any high tech board design on its way? Colours shape core ?

2009 is going to be all time, I got my new boards last week and just so stoked with them! The template is amazing and the new colours are really pimping. This year Science is coming out with a Crescent and Pin tail. I have been testing out many different templates with a crescent tail, trying to come up with the right formula to get the full potential out of the crescent tail board in small and big waves. Mike Stewart and I finally were able come up with a crescent tail, high performance board. McCarthy Crescent tail template makes for one of the fastest boards around that works in all conditions. The Crescent PE has great flex in colder water.

fruit bowl's anybody?

cold shower

woke up amping for a hot shower, jumped in and got flush by the coldest water ever

i know i know, crop'd funny but hey i had a cold shower and he landed in the flats what more can i say

It comes around.

Some days you just have this enlightenment that there are going to be waves, you know it and there isn't any other way. Sometimes you are walking around on campus on days like these, as I. In these cases of severe misfortune a man is faced with a great moral dilemma, but then again as you are speeding towards the beach you wonder why you even wasted thought on such a easy decision. I drove with manic skills around twisty corners, dispatching old grandma's in my path with some lucrative overtaking. In hindsight I might have used up my daily quota of awesomeness on the road and when I hit the waterworks there just didn't seem to be any spunk left in my bunk?

Needless to say there were definitely some stars in the water, man, if I was a young girl I would have been frothing! The whose-who of South African bodyboarding Celebz wer' out' der' totally going monkey on the supertube. Cobus got TONZ of photo's, that your never going to see! Mohahaha. I kid you, Going teh be sifting through them and posting 'em over the next moon cycle.

Righto first up we have Monsiour Mark Watts, with a sheepalign debue (expect fanmail to rain down on your mailbox soon), this is a proper stall to set up that all important scoop. Wright that down kids.

'Ere 've hav' Mark McCarthy. What to say, what to say! Mark boogs so well it's rather painfull being in the water whilst he is out. Getting super radicool on a end bowl!

Pure class folks, pure class! McCarthy shows he is badass in the previous picture and here he shows of his softer side with some elegance!

AND TODAY'S WINNER OF THE UPSIDEDOWN BARREL AWARD IS JARED HOUSTON!
