Taiwan.....what a place!

After an awesome time out in Taiwan, I'm back home now, albeit slightly jet lagged. Before the trip began, I heard rumours of uncrowded line-ups and pumping surf. All I can say is..... the rumours were true.

I think I counted 5 other surfers in the water in my whole time in Taiwan, we scored heavy beachies, mellow points, barrels, noserides, such a wide variety of surf nearly every surf was in boardies with just us in the water. One thing is for certain, there are a lot more 7/11 shops than surfers!

The culture out there is so diverse with an abundance of crazy stuff around every corner. The food is off the scale, with the sushi is immense and now at the grand age of 26, I know how to use chop sticks!

The boys on the trip were top lads, Isaac Fields, Matt Mulder and my good friend from home Zak Lawton. The boys were killing while Moonwalker took shots, the trip is due to feature in the December issue of Pacific Longboarder Magazine, keep your eyes peeled for a video of the trip too.

Here's a couple shots I took along the way on my iPhone.
