Very cool Richard - thanks as well for posting these excellent links!
The Aussies are charging...yeah!
Never been to Fiji myself but a lot of the local boys here have gone several times and had a blast. One good friend of mine is going back again (I think it will be his 3rd time) with his 2 sons who surf as he is nearing 60 and wants to make it count. Great story about how surfing shapes one's life.
Cheers!
