Jake Cutler: NZ 23rd December

Welcome to This Blog

I know its mostly photo's .... so if your not into that stuff then this prob isnt the place for you.

I travel a relative amount in WA chasing waves to surf, so now being armed with a camera i can document the places and waves that i get to see. I also carry my rig around with me prop about 80% of the time to shoot just random things that interest me, hence there will be a mixture of waves/surf and complete random randomness.

I have just completed a degree in a Bachelor of Surf Science & Technology (YES a degree that involves the surfing environment and industry plus other environmental and technological sciences) and also a supporting major in business studies. Kinda looking for a job, kinda not.

Please dont be shy. You can also check out full albums at my Flickr site just by clicking HERE

NZ 23rd December

We slept along the Arthurs Pass road which is this road that cuts through a massive mountain range from the west coast to the east coast (N vice versa!). We had landed in the east at Christchurch but knew a swell was hitting the west coast. So we drove as far as we could and then decided to crash there. The photo's are showing how hectic the roads were and how cool mountains are! Once we woke we headed straight for a little coastal town called Greymouth which was home to a wedging right hander and a longer fatter left hander.
