The most anticipated bodyboarding movie of all time was ready to been screened to
the thousands in Wollongong on the 14th of May 2010. After months of lagging and procrastination the master piece had finally been completed, and JK and I were in
high spirits and had higher hopes of fame, fortune and social notoriety. In previous
weeks I had trouble locking in a venue and a date, but lucky for me the 14th was
available, perfect timing for the 15th of May, the swell of the decade (Something
like 20ft S swell 20 sec periods, offshores…). This meaning the amber liquid, crazy
the movie and partying was far from the minds of many.

The event was to kick off with a BBQ at SWS. Being the good blokes we are we throw
on cheap snags and the offer of mad hangs in store with the pros before the
screening. With total of 10-12 groms rocking up, we knew we were onto a good thing.
Plus pre sale tickets had been going gangbusters in previous weeks… with a total of
18 being sold. I am a man of routine and solid plans, so my plan was to reduce my
stress levels at the BBQ with a four pack of my favorite RTD’s Kentucky state
bourbons, and with a generous 2.8 standard drinks being offered in each can I was
starting to loosen up and ready for a crazy night.
From the success of the BBQ we make our way up the road to the venue of the premiere
‘The Master Builders Club’. We get inside and get vibed by the staff and start
setting up and knocking back more drinks. At this stage I’m waiting for the crowds
of groms to start swarming the building… early Tension premieres in Perth style, but
it was not to be. The slow trickle of unimpressed groms who looked like their
parents forced them to come along was a bit disheartening. However things started
looking up towards starting time and we managed to get a some what decent crowd of
people, but 819 people shy of the 1000 we predicted.
Having a movie named ‘Crazy the Movie’ you have a lot to look live up to, but I was
sure the least we could ask for was some mad hooting from the crowd and euphoric
cheers during the screening… didn’t happen. The whole movie played through with an
eerie silence and every time someone did yell out they would get all self conscious
because it instant drew attention to themselves. There was still hope for later in
the night though, with ‘Crazy the after party’ following on from the premiere. We
make our way to the grand with a few of the crazy faithful to continue the night.
Once again numbers were down on expected, with many wanting to catch an early night,
shit cunts! The few who did make the effort enjoyed a night of cheap drinks, bands
and pool. With shattered dreams and a thirst for utter intoxication I made sure I
would forget most of what had just happened. My last hours at the after party were
spend semi-conscious on a lounge talking to my ex girlfriend about who knows what,
crazy.
I wake the next day with mixed emotions, trying to piece together where it all went
wrong, not just the premiere but my life in general. That afternoon I took myself
and my adopted young brother Dixon down to the new Core store in Nowra for the
second stop of tour. With a crowd of 26 showing I was on top of the world. I then
once again turned to the bottle and went out in Nowra and had a genuinely good time,
with my night finishing up at Legends night club at 3am, now that is crazy.
Crazy is now selling in total of 4 stores across NSW. Here's the extended teaser:

it's kinda weird.. you either hate or love the left. personally i love it, its like

the ripbowl i dreamt of coming across everyday as a kid only on reef. each time i go

there i try to get deeper and slow my moves down but once im on that wave it never

happens cause its actually hard as shit to ride. i was hyped to surf it with someone

like jeff who looks at a wave pretty different to me and i think this is a pretty

good little contrast piece as far as that goes. the funny thing is i was trying to

do a backflip all session. theres a few photos from this session in the new leboogie

magazine which is on sale now @ leboogie.com

dog eat dog.

The Dog's bucks was something else. One of the blokeyest days Iv'e experienced. Which probably doesn't say much when you take into account the sissy's I call my mates. Put it this way I aint never been pig shooting.

It began with testosterone fueled paintball with 20 odd mates followed by beers which led to more beers. There was chanting, boot swilling and even a stripper showed up despite the dog's wife Sharnz throwing down a strict no stripper policy. The Warrawong lass was definately no prize pig - but Koot handpicked her - albiet sight unseen from the yellowpages. One of the funniest things I remember from the night was the sound of the strippers barely audible stereo on full volume. Things got kind of awkward until everything got directed to Koot stripping down and playing his own skin flute in the hope that she'd succumb to his the lure of his now famous rig.

Shortly after the event his mother deleted him on facebook. But he managed to get off scott free with Sharnee by pinning the booking on Dav.

dirty bird.

The 2nd of may was the day movement mag did what many people had thought about all to many times, put a god dam metal bird above that wedge! unlucky for a couple of us the 2nd of may happened to fall the day after Ryan Mattick's wedding. Heads were sore, eyes were tired and helicopter fumes were far from necessary. Personally, I had a terrible time but hats off to movement for making cool shit happen.
