Surfing the Concrete

 Since the surfing monsoon ended last 2 weeks, we started our activity again this week. Rather than doing nothing living in the city, we decided to do Bowl Surfing every weekend morning.
We are doing Carving Skateboard & Longboard in Shah Alam SS13 Skatebowl Park. Most of us are quite new and just started to skate.... all we need is just safety gear and helmet.
Fyi, this is a very healthy activity and keep us staying in shape....finger crossed!!! heheheheehehe so if you guys want to bring your kids, your nephew,niece...cousins...anyone...just bring along!!!! Start staying healthy!!!
For a start, everyone should just drop by and try it out. Dont have to buy straight to be able to join us......can share and use ours for a start!!! So if u guys are keen to surf the concrete, feel free to join us every Sunday morning at;

Shah Alam Extreme Park
Jalan Lompat Pagar 13/37
Seksyen 13, 40100 Shah Alam, Selangor

Surfer of the Month

Mr Tom Curren 






With a classic style and grace, this waterman is a true legend of surfing.
Tom hailing from California won three world titles – in 1985, 1986 and 1990 –  He rode his Al Merrick-shaped boards with style and mesmerizing grace. He always let his surfing do the talking and preferred staying out of the lime light.  With two world titles in the bag, he quit pro surfing and married his first wife, Marie and went to live on the Basque coast, in France. 
This decision to take time out stunned the surfing world but nothing could prepare the Surfing circus for his comeback in 1990.
Tom Curren surfed as a trial list at the contests – and he won a crazy 7 of them that year and drove home to a 3rd World Surfing Title. 


"Curren's reputation as one of the world's greatest surfers in history is supported by his accomplishments as a competitor. But most surfers would define Curren as an artist, then as a world champion..." from Matt Warshaw 'Surf Riders'.

Khairil's in Action at one of Malaysia's Epic Lefthand Points

Khairil's in Action at one of Malaysia's Epic Lefthand Points
Khairil in one of the spot in Indonesia
Early 2011 I was in contact with ISC media director Tim Hain. He had been toying with the idea of coming up to score a secret little wave just north of Cherating – one of Malaysia’s epic lefthand points. He came over in February, bringing Raditya Rondi in tow, but unfortunately this time round we were unlucky  - the swell was there but conditions weren’t in our favour. We still managed to score a few good waves, Raditya got a couple of decent barrel shots (including one epic barrel superman air combo), and we put together a bit of footage. Check it out – the full story should be in the upcoming edition of Surf Time. (Movies & Pictures will uploaded soon)

Somewhere in Aceh
 A while back Billabong was also kind enough to send us on a little surf trip to our next door neighbour, Aceh, to check out the scene. On board was myself, Mamat, and Billabong Asia brand manager Peter Thew. Pics taken by Aril. We didn’t score epic swell, but had a week of fun waves and a few rounds on the golf course. Definitely going back again next season, hopefully to score this time!

Drapers 'Just the Job'

For great fashion industry careers advice we love Drapers 'Just the Job' feature and this week's issue sees Surfdome.com's very lovely Head of Merchandising Francesca Herman talking about her role with Europe's fastest growing lifestyle store.

Surfdome is also mentioned in Drapers ‘How to be a...’ feature, quoted as “The fast pace of online retailing requires a much quicker reaction to trading performance than high street retailers and if, like Surfdome, the product range features snowwear and beachwear, the head of Merchandising needs to consider how weather fluctuations might impact on product demand.” So we're thinking with this run of weather and bank holidays that Surfdome.com's fantastic holiday department is a must click!

True Move, Asian Wakepark Tour


I am stoked to announce that True Move have sponsored me for the Asian Wakepark tour, which starts this weekend at Thai Wakepark, then followed by Ski 360, Singapore and then most likely the final stop in Philippines.

True is an awsome company, not only feeding my iphone with 3G capabilities, but they are involved in the main international tv/sport channels in Thailand, as well as having "TRUE COFFEE", one which is right in front of my school.

A huge thanks to True for supporting me, cannot wait for the weekend.

Film of the Month -180' South


Chris Malloy’s film strikes so deeply into the heart of Patagonia’s wilderness we come to feel at home there. 180° South: Conquerors of the Useless follows Jeff Johnson as he retraces the epic 1968 journey of his heroes Yvon Chouinard and Doug Tompkins to Patagonia. Along the way he gets shipwrecked off Easter Island, surfs the longest wave of his life – and prepares himself for a rare ascent of Cerro Corcovado. Jeff’s life turns when he meets up in a rainy hut with Chouinard and Tompkins who, once driven purely by a love of climbing and surfing, now value above all the experience of raw nature – and have come to Patagonia to spend their fortunes to protect it.
FEATURING Yvon Chouinard, Doug Tompkins, & Jeff Johnson. With surfing by Keith Malloy, Timmy O’Neill, Ramon Navarro and Alicia Ika Acuna.
