Joni

Every now and again I'll be featuring a 'surfer joe' I know or meet on the beach. I've been meaning for a while to do a profile on Joni. He surfs a lot and surfs well. Whenever I see him surf I see someone who really surfs for the pure fun of it.

Joni Dytor

Surfing since: Pretty much 2006, I surfed before then but not really. I was 16 and everyone surfed in high school, now days not so much which kinda sucks.

Likes riding: Planks with 3 little fins on them, nothing fancy. I like dings and holes as well, they go faster.

Likes to surf: Long right handers like the Maldives.

One day: I'd like to surf the Andaman Islands near India and I really want to get to Papua New Guinea too.

Along the way: I've learned if you stay out long enough you get sunburnt... and that people are happier when they surf - except the angry ones who totally rip in 1' closeouts : )

Azza

Every now and again I'm going to feature a ‘surfer Joe’ I know or meet on the beach. Starting out with my good mate Azza, seen here trying out a new longboard he just shaped himself.

 

Aaron Frost
Surfing since: 1980.
Likes riding: Pretty much anything. At the moment especially keel fin fishes and logs.
Likes to surf: Long fast point breaks. Sandon Point and The Boneyard were favourites growing up on the South Coast.
One day: I’ll head out to Nias in Sumatra and ride some almond-eyed barrels.
Along the way: I’ve learned to be stoked riding whatever I feel like without worrying what anyone else is doing.
