Tofino Paddle Surf Down Under for the ‘summer’!

…depending on what hemisphere you are in 😉 We decided to take a break from the wetsuits and head to Southern Australia for a 6 week working vacation teaching SUP and surfing with our buddies at www.portstephenssurfschool.com Apart from all the ‘work’ we did, we were treated to some beautiful beach sunsets, rides in the dunes, kangaroos, camels, epic waves, lots of laughs, and of course, world famous Aussie BBQ’S! Thanks to Tofino Paddle Surf Crew who stayed back to take care of the Tofino Division and to everyone who made the trip so epic.  Thanks mates!
