ANOTHER SLICE OF ALIEN LIFE - THE WORLD OF GAVIN BESCHEN

Surf Europe ran a web piece on the North Shore’s Gavin Beschen entitled Country Folk: The Alien a couple of seasons back now and if you had to put the whole piece on videotape, well, it would look a bit like his latest GoPro HD ad.

What are the ingredients of a good surfer?

Someone who’s the same in the water as they are on land. Someone who loves to surf, to share experiences with their friends without being too serious. Times change, but the ingredients stay the same; someone who’s in tune with the culture, roots and lifestyle that we’ve been blessed to be a part of. It’s a lot more than riding waves.
