Weird Waves aficionado Dylan Graves gives most compelling look yet at soon-to-be-demolished “Mad Max” wavepool in country Australia, “We got to surf an engineering marvel!”

"Surf trips always seem to surprise me but this one just had a little extra something."

That wild-looking plunger pool in central Queensland is gonna be demolished and rebuilt as a public tank, opening, I’d guess, end of 2024.

The original tank, y’see, was built as a test facility, cheap concrete lined the bottom and the wave-making plunger was only designed to bounce up and down 150,000 times and wasn’t built to commercial specs.

Breakdowns became the stuff of legend,.

When Tim Baker, widely considered to be the best surf journalist in the biz, visited the joint on a press junket he reported,

“There are frequent delays while they tinker with the machinery or attend to glitches in the system. When a crack in the lake’s cement floor begins turning the water from an aqua blue to a muddy brown we are encouraged to help lug rocks from an on-site quarry into a trailer to help plug the cracks.

“By the end of the second day, it appears we may have pushed the Surf Lakes prototype to its limits. There’s a lengthy delay in the afternoon to attend to some mechanical issue, and when we eventually resume, after only a couple of sets, Occy sounds the alarm that something’s not quite right. The large concrete tower that the air compressor sits on top of looks dangerously off kilter. The force of the swells has knocked it off its footings and we are asked to clear the water immediately.”

Anyway, the almost-forty-year-old Puerto Rican Dylan Graves, a favourite of BeachGrit, visited Yeppoon recently.

In this compelling short documentary, he acts out the drama of Surf Lakes for our entertainment; his look, the hair falling to his shoulders, the very good but still accessible surfing, the vivacity, creates the cumulative effect of us all longing to be alongside Dylan Graves chasing pool waves.

Hawaii’s whip-slicked queen of taboo Mason Ho leaves spectators’ mouths flapping mutely as he takes Hurricane Kay head on!

Heavy veined and thick with blood!

Here, we see Mason Ho belly-bang the famous Newport Wedge in a wild showdown that pits Ho’s shuck and jive against the wave’s Hurricane Kay fuelled holes.

Ho, thirty-four, is a whooshing flash among the autumn gloom, leaving spectators’ mouths flapping mutely.

The waves are of a good size, clean, and Baby Pimp Ho, Hawai’s “Queen of Crazy”, who is still lithe despite a summer diet of candied yams, isn’t afraid to go for the “kill shot”.

Heavy veined and thick with blood.

Hawaii’s untamed “Queen of Crazy” Mason Ho surfs half-naked in wild Javanese super session, “Barebacking at Grajagan!”

Ho jackknifes his legs and bares his teeth in mock orgasm at each tube that descends upon him; his little pal Dylan Wilcoxen snips off any of Ho’s excess.

It ain’t difficult to argue the case that Mason Ho, the thirty-four-year-old Sunset Beach superstar, has had more barrels than Hollywood has cocksuckers.

In this stunning edit of a one-day session at Grajagan, and also starring the Indonesia prodigy Dylan Wilcoxen, who is only thirteen but who lives at Kandui Resort in the Mentwais, Ho’s nostrils quiver in the stink of double-overhead tubes.

Ho jackknifes his legs and bares his teeth in mock orgasm at each tube that descends upon him; Wilcoxen snips off any of Ho’s excess.

The middle brother of the Florence triumvirate, which includes Olympian and two-time world champ John John and underground skate/surf star Ivan has, again, demonstrated his durability across the multiple social platforms, YouTube, Instagram, OnlyFans etc, with his latest edit on YouTube.

The eight-minute short, Session of a Lifetime at the Box, features Nathan looking for an orgasm and a cocktail at The Box, a difficult wave near Margaret River that left the current world champ Filipe Toledo in 2019 looking like a “plucked and naked chook jammed in the freezer.”

The film follows the usual narrative, drama, attitude and then the cock shot.

Madcap scenes at Kelly Slater’s Surf Ranch as big-wave honeypot and former BFF of Mark Zuckerberg Kai Lenny reintroduces the world to strapped-in back flips! “Enlightening, horrifying and heroic!”

A passionate summary of Kai Lenny’s ability to restore human dignity to those discredited surf disciplines, tow-surfing, SUPs, foils, straps etc.

Hawaiian Kai Lenny, the daring multi-discipline surfer who has carved an oasis in the surfing world with guts and with blood, has reintroduced the world to the awe-inspiring potential of foot-straps at the Kelly Slater Surf Ranch in Lemoore, California.

Lenny, a twenty-nine-year-old married daddy with two infants, partners with US Olympian skater Zion Wright in a session variously described as an “epic vision”, “brilliant” and “enlightening, horrifying and heroic!”

I found the five-minute video tremendously exciting and a passionate summary of Kai Lenny’s ability to restore human dignity to those discredited surf disciplines, tow-surfing, SUPs, foils, straps etc.

Essential.
