No no no, not competing! Maybe in a smaller event that doesnt attract great surfers :D Talking of great surfers, met Alan Stokes (*daydreams*!), Josh Knowles and Lee Bartlett on friday, so stoked! Thats my claim to fame right there, but it was just like talking to anyone, not the people who I see in magazines and movies! I guess its such a down-to-earth sport.

Did u get in at Saunton? Friday was huge at Croyde on the push, and saturday wasnt small either. There was about 15 people out at Croyde Point on friday evening, the most ive seen in ages!
