SURFER DRESSES UP AS SHARK

Surfing brand Hurley has put together a competition, which is making people do some crazy things. I received the following pics from a 2oceasviber.

Nicely..

The surfer’s name is Tom Catilin (Cape Town boy, part of the “Llandudno crew” I am told) and the pics were taken by one Bourne Buirski. The aim, it seems, is not to terrify any would-be shark victims, but rather to win this Hurley competition.

I like what they’ve done there.

That, my friends, is what surfers would describe as either “mondo,” or “sick.”

Now I’m sure you all agree that this chap needs to win the competition. I don’t know what the other entries look like – but I can categorically declare that I would never have posted this on 2oceansvibe if it wasn’t for those photos. He has clearly taken things to the next level and should be rewarded.

So let’s do the right thing gang, and get Tom Catilin to California!
