SURFER<br />

as that which a beginner feels when they are<br />

faced with what they perceive as a big wave.<br />

“Dont panic after you panic” is a good saying<br />

that I try to remember. Once you taste that<br />

fear it is important to then recognise it, accept<br />

it and deal with the situation as calmly as possible.<br />

7. Do you follow any particular diet<br />

and exercise regime?<br />

Yes I have a personal trainer who works with<br />

me in Ballito (Dwain Siegers) who is amazing.<br />

My wife Kate makes sure I’m only eating<br />

the best food at all times and I try to do some<br />

form of exercise every day be it surfing, swimming,<br />

SUPing, diving or gym work<br />

8. Tell us about your family.<br />

Having my Daughter Billi 3 months ago<br />

has been an incredible experience that has<br />

changed my life for the better in so many<br />

ways. Watching my wife Kate grow as a human<br />

while she grew our daughter inside her<br />

has blown me away and then how natural and<br />

calm she is as a mother is awe inspiring every<br />

day. I couldn’t be happier with my little piece<br />

of paradise.<br />

9. What do you think the future<br />

holds……<br />

My immediate plan is to spend more time at<br />

home than I have in the past 10 years and only<br />

travel out of South Africa for the 8 events that<br />

run around the world on the www.WSL.com<br />

big wave tour, for a few days at a time. Having<br />

a house in Zimbali will make this a whole lot<br />

more enjoyable.
