Gisborne, New Zealand. I spent a year or so living and surfing here off and on while working for Hot Buttered surfboards in Auckland in the late 1980's. I had countless epic sessions surfing Gizzy and the coastline north and south of here with a bunch local Gisborne boys - Brett, Eddie and Clint Daly, Cody, Rhys and a few others. This is just a few pics of some of the perfection we scored. Most of these were taken at Wainui (stock route, pines. empty section etc.). Added a few pics of the boys.

Eddie Daly is my Dad!!


Holy crap, really?? Awesome!! I have a couple of photos of Eddie from back in HB days.. how's he doing? Still in Gizzy? Of those surf photos above, one is Eddie surfing at Wainui, and another is Brett. I'll add captions and post some more pics.


Hey Bro
What a blow out, seeing those photos, How have you been? It's been a long time. Just moved back to the Gold Coast after two and a half years in Gisborne, the waves are still like your photos! Send me an email nice to hear from you bro.

I'll send this link to Clint and Brett.
