5 year
Where/Why did you start surfing?
Been skateboarding for 16 years, bones are starting to tell me
to wise a bap, sea is softer than concrete.
Any surfing honours, comp wins
etc? Won the 1st comp i entered, the handicrap
division on the irish nationals about 4 years ago, been tryin
in vain to outdo that since
Your fave board: quiver me timbers
- somehow i've managed to gather various sorts of 6.8s and a fantastic
plastic for the summer
Most surf friendly pubs / gigs
/ eateries:
Tinneys international in Derry, Squealin Pig in Muff
Favourite Surfer/s and why:
Monty Montgomery always impresses, though it's quite dangerous
taking several big waves on the head whilst in a laughing fit
Best thing about surfing:
goodbye cruel world
Your top music/reading/movies/tv/radio,
surf or otherwise: Stephen Kings 'the body', Brendan
Behan's 'Borstal Boy', a drink with Shane McGowan, 'Barrytown
Trilogy', spring to mind. TV?- I don't watch 'the s**t box' but
enjoy the occasional video session with Blazing Saddles, Coming
to America, Airplane and the like.
Any ambition as a surfer?:
Learn how to skateboard across a wave.
Dream surf trip:
offshore Donegal with a vanful of buddies, followed by a romantic
meal for 2 in the Muff chippy...not joking sire.
