Let's be honest this blog is a diary that occasionally talks about surfing. I like that balance I like presenting all sides of myself, for you dear blog reader, to regard and do with as you will. So with that in mind here are some tenuous links to surfing that I thought you might be entertained by (or at the very least you can use to procrastinate from whatever it is you should be doing)!

BRUH BUNNY
Today my mind has been firmly fixed on Bruh the rabbit, he was booked in to get castrated and I've pretty much been an anxious wreck from 9am when I admitted him to now. So how does this relate to surfing? Well Bruh is named after my favorite phrase I heard South African surfers say when I was staying in Cape Town. 'Hectic Bruh' means the waves were really awesome and Bruh means brother which I just loved.

STOKED.
I should be embarrassed admitting this but I'm not- I love the kids cartoon Stoked! My surfing buddy found this animated series on Netflix so put it on for her daughter, it was so good she not only had one happy kid she also really enjoyed it too! She enjoyed it so much she recommended it to me and seven episodes in I can confirm it is AWESOME!! It covers everything from localism, tongue in cheek references to Point Break, dropping in, cross stepping and with characters such as 'Broseph' and 'Reef' what's not to love?!!

FELICITY PALMATEER ART
Ok so Felicity Palmateer is actually a pro surfer which is incredibly relevant to surfing! What I'm particularly interested in is not her wave technique but her art because as well as being a surfer, conservationist and model she also happens to be a kick ass artist. I love her whale mandala and reckon this would look awesome for the tattoo I dream about and hopefully will eventually have if I can save/muster up enough courage!!

ALL THINGS BOHEMIAN.
I know its terribly hipster of me to admit this but I just LOVE anything that has a bohemian flavor and every time I think of surfing I feel there's a connection to being a bohemian free spirit. Back in the day (50's & 60's) surf culture was on the fringes of society, it was deemed unsavory amongst the conservative middle classes so those who made it their lives were often branded as outcasts. Nowadays surfing still represents that alternative free spirited vibe and I LOVE it!
