The Wolsk...

The Wolsk, Chickawolski, Chicken, Kerby, Kez-Balls...whatever you call the man is not gonna change the fact that he is one of the best damn tube-riders around. Growing up since the age of 9 with this fella means I've had the pleasure of watching this man slide into a countless number of exceptional barrels on an array of surfcraft. The best thing is, he's now becoming quite the expert on capturing the experience and in the following clip you get to see just what the man can achieve. Nice work Chicken, I can't wait until the day when a grey haired Tim is watching your little Sonny do the same. Check his blog here.

Baby got a brand new thing...

Like a proud father at his daughters first ballet recital I watched as my lovely Lisa purchased her first 'log' on Sunday, and what a divine creature it is. Nick Mcarthur of Changi logs (here) constructed a bunch of incredible boards recently and it was pretty hard to decide which would be Lisa's new baby...

Nick points out the pros and cons of the 13 or so boards she had to choose from...

Lisa fell in love with this 9'1" golden delight. Beautiful board, beautiful girl.



Visit http://www.nickmcarthur.com/ to see more of these magnificent creations and to find out more. Thanks Nick!

Timelapse...my new friend.

Timelapses are so super deliciously cool. I've been attracted to making timelapses ever since watching Baraka for the first time when I was about 12 years old!

This sequence definitely isn't as cool as watching Baraka but it's cool enough to make me want to stitch together some more of these in the future.

Exploration leads to impromptu model shoots on the vast sand dunes of Stockton recently...you gotta have some fun in life...



Me and my hobo princess know how to have a good time.

It's been a while...


It's been a while...


a) Since I've blogged
b) Since I've logged &
c) Since I've experienced the goodness that is Queens Beach. 


Here Chris Del Moro rips it up on 9'6" of the finest en route to Sydney during the Transparentsea Voyage with Rasta & Co 2009. It's been almost a year since this somewhat life-changing weekend I had with the crew that has led to me promoting the minimisation of marine debris in our oceans. And a good year at that.

The last blast of winter...

The sou-wester tastes of snow but the golden wattle says stay tuned for summer. Gliding amongst H2O is a funny and intoxicating thing, how convenient that the element we need to survive is the element that we need for play.  We should always be grateful for what life's most precious resource provides us. Thanks water.




Kashmir, India.

Celtic cool...


Is it this guys accent? Is it the raw beauty of Scotland's coastline? Or is it just the incredible photography? For whatever 
reason, this is the best clip I have seen on the web for a while. Enjoy

Some micro shroom-age out the front door. Delectable or detestable? I don't know...

Gutslides & Goodtimes

Gutsliding is all about the simplicity of man vs. ocean. An opportunity to cast away the throws of consumerism and all manner of surfing paraphernalia that inherently rely on petro-chemicals as key ingredients. Bodysurfing = simplicity = fun. 


Don't believe me? Watch the following video and you'll see what I'm all about.

Hopes and dreams...

Kashmir Powder, Snowboarding Gulmarg India. Go Pro & Canon 7D from Tim Silverwood on Vimeo.

For those who don't already know, I'm heavily addicted to snowboarding in the Himalaya. After travelling there for the last 3 winters I think I am ready to introduce others to the spectacular skiing destination. Hence, I've started Kashmir Powder in the attempt to find people out there who may wish to join me in Jan/Feb/March 2011 for a personalised tour complete with professional photography. Sound like you? Or a friend? Tell them to get in touch. Peace.
