Lives of the Artists II


Relentless have just released their latest film, 'Lives Of The Artists: Follow Me Down' - check out the trailer and what they have to say about it

https://www.relentlessenergy.com/films/view/lives-of-the-artists-follow-me-down-trailer

Lives Of The Artists: Follow Me Down is the latest cinematic adventure and highly anticipated edition of the groundbreaking film series by Relentless Energy Drink.

Featuring James Lavelle and UNKLE, as well as legendary freeriders Jeremy Jones and Xavier de Le Rue (star of the first film), Lives Of The Artists: Follow Me Down explores a theme that anyone driven by some immeasurable passion will recognise - that there are no easy rides in life.

Relentless travel to Antarctica with their two riders, spurning the usual 'heli-drop and ride', big mountain approach in search of more visceral rewards, the kind that Jeremy and Xavier seek by scaling each near-vertical face on foot. Interwoven with this, Relentless join UNKLE on tour in Tokyo, Moscow, St. Petersburg and London, immersing themselves along the way in the uncompromising sounds and beliefs of a pioneering musical outfit that has strived to push the boundaries of artistic expression while retaining total integrity for close to 20 years.

UNKLE will also be creating a soundtrack for Lives Of The Artists: Follow Me Down, influenced by the cinematic backdrop of the film. An exclusive teaser track will be available for members of The Order (Relentless' online community) to download for free at www.relentlessenergy.com from 16 August 2010. The remaining tracks will be available at launch of the full film in early September 2010.

Desert times

We have made it out from the desert I could very easily get lost in time out there.
It was my fourth trip up there and it still blows me away every time, I love it.
It is one of the most challenging heavy paddle waves I have surfed.
We had three very different swells in ten days. Here is a few shots from our stint.



















Big thanks to Scott Bauer for all his help and Yasha and Jamie for letting me use there photos. Also a shout to all the other guys we hung out with in the desert, cheers boys for the good times...

Headed North!




After three weeks of fun surf around Margaret River the weather finally broke so it was time to hit the road north to my favorite place: Gnaraloo.

Week one in WA


Its been a busy first week in West Oz.
We have had everything from onshore wedges to big glassy bombie sessions.
Its really good being back in chunky winter swells, although I find it hard to get my head round that this is winter time, its 20 degrees in the water and similar air temp.
Looking forward to the months ahead to see what the swells bring.

Down Under


If you did'nt guess from the photo I am back in Australia for the summer.
First off went down to my good mate Paul Morgans in Ulladulla for a fun swell.
Here is a photo from my tiny little waterproof camera, its from a fun paddle session we had.
Thats me getting smashed and ended up snapping Morgs big board. Heading over to West Oz next. Will try and keep the blog updated with my progress.

Decisions.


Trying to decide which boards to take away for the summer traveling, got to hate baggage allowances.
