I am 27 years old and live in San Clemente California. I get to travel the world and get paid to surf; wow life is good. My intereset are, hunting, rocking on the guitar, training, and most importantly, ruling kareoke. I am the San Clemente champ, so if anyone wants to battle, it's on. I didn't have the most succesful amateur career but i kept at it and gave it my all. I wasnt handed much and I earned to get where I am at now, so to all the kids who aspire to being a professional surfer never give up... Im living proof that dreams do come true.

On Da Rock 08

Tue, 18 Nov 2008 - Posted at 01:00:00 PM

So Hawaii 08 is in full swing on the North Shore. I have been here for 2 weeks now, and my pasty white haole skin is gone with a solid Hawaiian bronze. I rocked up from flat Cali straight into a solid 10 foot west swell and firing pipeline. Didn't get too many waves out there, but just one is better than any wave you'll ever catch back at home in San Clemente. Just yesterday I was out surfing Pupekea and there were sea turtles swimming everywhere. There was one turtle in particular that was huge, definitely the biggest turtle I have ever seen. So I figured I would swim down and check him out. As I swam down and was getting closer to him, I thought, I wonder if you could grab on the back of him and let him pull you around. Like the stuff you see in the movies. But unfortunately there is a reason you only see this in the movies.It happened so quickly I didn't have time to clear the area........... and since I was directly behind him I was an easy target All of the sudden a brown cloud filled the once crystal clear water. Wait whats going on, why is the water all of the sudden brown. Then it hit me. I couldn't believe it, I just got crapped on by a turtle... As he swam away, I think I heard him say," welcome to Hawaii haole now go home." So Im claiming this is a first. Shit on by a turtle has any boady else had this happen to them?  Wow I got crapped on by a turle.....
