Pretty sure I’m the most excited Grom right now. Hanging and surfing with all the Electric boys this week has been so cool. Surfing with Ry and Craig has got me so amped to try new tricks and push my surfing to the next level.

I got up super early this morning, I think it was around 5am and took the ski over to surf Illuka with Warto. We scored some sick barrels with only 4 other guys out. We got home about 8am for some breakfast and woke the crew up to let them know the waves were pumping.

Not sure if anyone has talked about the house Electric rented us yet, but I think it’s the sickest house I’ve ever stayed in. It’s straight across from the beach over looking a break called Pippies, meaning we don’t have to go anywhere to check the conditions.

Thanks for checking out my blog and make sure you get the December issue of Tracks, cause we going to have a surf movie from our trip on the cover.

Here I am, on my first trip with Electric since joining the team at the beginning of this year. Sickest crew to hang with and surfing with every-one has been blowing my mind. Rasta’s surfing is off the hook, are you for real how good this guy surfs.

Our day started with yet another sleep-in hahahaha, we’re all useless at getting up for the early. It’s been a pretty shitty day here a few massive rain showers have hit us through out the day. Ry and I check our favorite wedge Turners at least four times today before hitting it just on dark.

Since we spent most the day hanging around Monkey and Pete thought we should best get out and experience some of the local town attractions. So a few rounds of lawn bowls, with some cold beers it was at the local bowls club. I was pretty bad to start with but ended up smoking them all……….well I won the first two rounds and beat Hoy.

Electric’s Perth Standlick Takes His 2nd Straight Victory In Japan

Electric Team Surfer - Perth Standlick

AUG 16TH, 2010 | ELECTRIC’S PERTH SANDLICK TAKES HIS 2ND STRAIGHT VICTORY | SHONAN SUPER KIDS CHALLENGE, JAPAN

The Pro Juniors Final started with current ASP Japan Pro Junior Series Leader Kaito Ohashi (JPN), Perth Standick (AUS), Kento Takahashi (JPN) and Ginji Ishida(JPN).

Takahashi scored high with aerial moves with 7.5 and 5.0 points, but Standlick this week again claims victory – two straight weeks with two excellent scores of 8.25 and 8.10 and a total of 16.35 points for his effort with backhand off the bottom and off the top moves full of commitment to secure high scores by the judges.

“I’m over the moon! It’s been nuts this week but I was very hungry for victory this week,” Standlick said. “Two wins in a row is unbelievable. I was pretty nervous yesterday night that the swell was dropping and may turn flat. Luckily it picked up again today. Sure like to keep this momentum moving and do well in the ASP Star Series coming up later this year.”

Hey crew we’ve all been here for a few days now and scoring some sick waves. Group plan last night was to get up for the early, but after a few beers last night, followed by a couple of well mixed Bourbons by the man Mr Peter Dodd our early wake-up became a sleep in.

Dawn Sleepers and Sunset Creepers

Once the boys became aware the sun was shining and waves were pumping we all adventured over to Iluka. Hoy and I had a hell time up against the break wall, while the rest attacked some wedging lefts down the beach.

Dawn Sleepers and Sunset Creepers

It’s insane how much swell this part of the coastline sucks in, as well as the variety of waves. Living just an hour’s drive from here means we come & surf here a lot. Plus the local crew like Laurie, Nav, Walts & Dan Ross are some of the nicest crew to score a surf with.

Dawn Sleepers and Sunset Creepers

Time to help out with the BBQ as we just scored some fish from Laurie’s Dad, check ya all soon and hope you enjoy today’s pics.

Well I’ve just arrived in Yamba after a huge trip over from the West. Hard to believe I was surfing 10-foot pits yesterday at the Barri and I’m now here surfing my favorite east coast beachie Turners with all the Electric peeps.

Dawn Sleepers and Sunset Creepers

On the drive down we pulled into Byron and picked up our 37 cases of beer thanks to our friends from Carlton and Electric’s has rented us the biggest house in town straight across from the surf, so the week ahead is looking to a good one.

Dawn Sleepers and Sunset Creepers

Woody’s just checked the swell forecast and it’s looking to be a sick week of waves down here, so pretty excited to surf my brains out with and hang with all the boys.

Dawn Sleepers and Sunset Creepers

Well I’ve got to run as we’re off to shoot my new add with the one and only Steve Baccon. Thanks for checking out the team’s blog and pics from this week’s trip I’m sure their going to be lots of great stuff to come.
