Grant Twig Baker on his $5000 Oakley Biggest Slab winner. He talks about this session during our interview.
Jam packed show! We had Twiggy skype in live from the North Shore before departing to Australia where he won the Surfing Life Oakley Biggest Slab Award. He gives us the lowdown on the Mavericks event, what will happen with the Eddie and Red Bull jaws events and who has been flying the Saffa flag in Hawaii.
Markus and Rupert join to amp you on this weekends Ultimate X event in Cape Town and I launched a great competition to win ticket packages.
Robby from Vudu Surf joins us to discuss this weekends Rolling Retro event and of course Chris Cab was in studio, causing mayhem and distorting the Mics..
Welcome to the next limit in Big Wave Surfing. Red Bull, together with team rider, Ian Walsh, present the Jaws Paddle Contest. This contest will help to significantly push the boundaries in paddling giant waves. Thus far only a few invites have been released, among them our very own, Grant "Twig" Baker. A big uproar started brewing in South Africa as Chris Bertish has not, as yet, been invited, but he was the first person to paddle into waves at Jaws and is a winner at Mavericks. We cant speculate, but perhaps his invite is in the mail.
The event will run a waiting period over the whole Hawaiian Winter and will require clean 30-50ft Faces to run. They have also confirmed they will not run on the same day as the Eddie if this clash becomes reality. 21 Surfers will be invited.
Invited so far are host Ian Walsh, Twig, Greg Long, Dave Wassel, John John Florence (Yes please), Jeff Rowley and Kala Alexander. Most of these guys being proven chargers out in the Jaws Lineup. One thing is for sure, you dont want to miss this one. Follow the event at Red Bull USA.
Another week and another amazing show. I was joined by Daniel from the new Cape Town craze, Moonlight Mass, which happens again on Thursday. Local beauties Yolanda Nieman (FHM) and Kate Lovemore (Playboy) were keeping the boys on their toes. Yolanda will be representing for me on Thursday eve at the Moonlight Mass, so look out for her and say hi! Big wave chargers Josh Redman aka, the Vanilla Gorilla and Grant "Twig" Baker came along with their hard working photographer, Ant Fox. Enjoy the show.
Wok loves himself and his balls, your opinion, does not even enter his head...
By now most of you are aware of my good mate Wok and his "Self Absorbed" creation that is his blog - I am Wok. He has been putting famous surfers on the hot seat and calling the interviews, Between Wok and a Hard Place. Generally he manages to put the guests onto the back foot, almost embarrassing them, while remaining aloof and non emotional. Twig manages to break that facade and even gets Wok to crack a laugh. Twig also has some good points and you get a good feel for what his mission is all about. This is a really funny interview, but what is even funnier is the response it got from one "hater" out there in FB land (See Below.) To be honest mate, if you expected anything else from Wok, you have been living under a rock! Furthermore curry gives you Diarrhea not the Wok.
Important News - Captain Kai's World will be on from 6-8pm from next Monday!
On this week's show I had big wave charger, Grant "Twig" Baker and his gorgeous, Playmate, girlfriend, Kate Lovemore, in studio. Joining them were two of SA's top young wake champs, Dylan Mitchell and Dale Nieuwstad, looking forward to the SA Wake Champs this weekend in Cape Town. Dale recently won the European and African Champs Wakeskate Title and Dylan is looking to beat his friend in this weekend's comp. Twig and Kate gave us the lowdown on their travels the last year and we all took a little inspiration from Twig - the wake kids were stoked to meet him.
