Day 2 of tour had us leaving NYC and hitting up the CCS store in Woodbridge, NJ.
Post signing meal and a brief stop at Ron Deily’s house…
Then we hit the streets of NJ before driving 3 hours to Albany for Day 3.
Saturday 20th November saw 105 plus skateboarders arrive at Mitchell Park – Durban, South Africa to take part in the first ever bombing Florida event. There was a buzz of excitement and nerves started to grow, as nobody knew what to expect, as the event was a first of its kind in South Africa. With everybody waiting to go our worst fear came to life, the SAPS (South African Police) rocked up to see what was going on, luck was on our side, the officer was understanding and let the run go ahead. With the skaters briefed and confirmation that marshals were in position the 105 skateboarders were set off, Florida road was packed with spectators and traffic came to a complete stop. Some skaters taking a gentle cruise and carve approach and others going full balls to the wall. Wipeouts and crashes were bound to happen but there was nothing more serious then a few roasties and broken egos. A few shorts minutes later speed demon Steve Jones arrived at 7th avenue first, followed by George Van Blerk and James Watts. Steve walked away with the lion’s share of the R6000 prize money and product from ZOO YORK, Circa footwear, Skull Candy headphones and Lundun Sunglasses. The afternoon was ended off with war stories and beers at Taco Zulu. Be sure to watch out for the next Bombing event presented by Zoo York. – Wesley ZY Operative South Africa

Dear Zoo Familia,
2010 has been an action packed year full of travel and and adventure around the globe. Spent the start to the year on the famous Northshore of Oahu where I battled it out amongst the worlds best. Then from there I took off to Fiji to stay at the incredible surf resort on the island of Tavarua. Spent Seven days surfing, fishing, and drinking beer. It was AMAZING!!!. After Fiji I went back to Cali to score the rest of the winter season. Had a handful of insane sessions and good times with friends and family, which was much needed. Summer came quick and once again I was presented with a great opportunity to spend the summer In norway to teach surf lesson in the Lofoten Islands. Without hesitation I was on it. Once In Norway I spent the long summer days teaching Europeans how to surf in the freezing arctic temps. With my location being so high up in the Arctic Circle the daylight stretched a full 24 hours so sleep was rare. Full days and full nights!!!. Some of the rawest nature I have ever experienced, to the Mid-night sun, fishing, and hiking. One of the best trips I have ever taken. Now I’m back home in San Diego working surfing and getting ready to do it all over again. Headed back to Hawaii late December and not sure after that but I will be sure to keep you posted on my travels.
