É o mais recente elemento da nossa NEWS TEAM. Adrian Tregoning fotografou o seu amigo Todd numa autêntica odisseia. Todd procurava demonstrar que o Fluid Element surfava (versão plástico) em quaisquer condições... pois. Só que a coisa ia correndo mesmo mal... fica o report.

It's the very first report from ore newst "NEWS TEAM" member, Adrian Tregoning / South Africa. Check out the story of these incredible photos...

"The day before my surgery in 2008 I let a friend of mine, Todd Post, try out my Element in the big surf as I wasn't allowed to paddle. He was extremely brave to head out alone and even though he failed to ride any waves, I salute him. Ironically, he had major surgery coming up a month later too, and then several more afterwards. So in honour of the long road to recovery I look forward to seeing you on the water more Todd. Take it easy mate, Adrian :-)"

Trying to get out again...

Turning around once again...

In between the madness...

Todd about to get eaten by another beast of a wave

Into the kelp, not a good idea...

...and through the rocks. And yes, it hurt.

Thanks Adrian and all the best for Todd ;)
