Watch the Pipeline Hawaii contest live (HACK)
Watch the Pipeline Hawaii contest live on beachbyte.com, here is the link: LIVE VIDEO. Some of you might have some trouble watching it live because of some crappy code / plugins on the LIVE page. HERE IS THE HACK TO WATCH THE VIDEO : open Windows Media Player (Mac or PC users, it works for both), then copy and paste this link: Link Hack 1 or this link Link Hack 2 directly in your Windows Media player software. (File > Open URL). It works like a charm.

Bali travel tips ! More 4PLAY news… & more news…
The BALI TRAVEL TIPS section is now available ! It’s short but effective i reckon. Check it here: Bali Travel Tips. Might be useful before going to Bali for those world trippers among you. Bali rocks and it’s a great place to surf & chill.
4PLAY recruted Andrew Lester as well (Damian King being onboard now – see previous news post) so they still have a really solid team despite the leaving of Rawlins and Hardy. They now have a custom head shaper by the name of Reon Fisher.
I forgot to say that i was also working on the Mitch Rawlins DVD review as well as the new Jono Bruce ‘Last Words’ interview which should be online tomorrow ! So stay tuned for more…
Last but not least, former pro sponger Robbie Crawford just finished working on Kainoa Mc Gee’s new website. Some super nice pics of Kai out there on a stick and on a sponge. Visit his site here: Kainoamcgee.com.

DVD reviews coming soon on Sponger City: I’m currently reviewing The INSIDE (the DVD version of the Best boogieboard video of all time) and the S.O.L prod DVD called “Double or Nothing”. I’ve only watched the Roach Section so far and all i can say is that Roach is still, by far, the best Dker of all time. I wonder why he wasnt even featured in the latest Riptide Peer Poll 2006 coz he proved he is freakin untouchable. Perfect control on the knew, unmatchable style and speed. A freak of nature.
