I ended up coming away with a 5th and just came up short to make the semi final s......an on fire mo frietias was the winner and leco salazar 2nd .Overall the people in brazil are wonderful and every person i came across were really nice we all had a great time and should thank the event organisers for a great event .South America is one of the fastest grow nations in the world and with such a large population soccer ,basketball , and surfing are big sports , the country is developing fast and the city was packed and crazy ...a real experience ,not speaking portuguis or spanish was hard at times but generally it was fine .Being such a big country we only seen a small part but it was a great experience and cannot wait to go back . Next blog i will put many more photos up so you can check out the awesome sites .......</div>

<u>Sup super tips i live by ........</u></h2>
<div>
Hi guys and girls with summer coming up in Australia ....my kids have been starting up the froth meter and getting back out there on the sup and short boards .....and it got me thinking about the few things i have been teaching them about the basics of surfing and suping in general.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Always check the surf and conditions for the correct board your going to ride ......make a good choice .....where to surf......never surf alone .</div>

Whether your on a shortboard ,longboard ,sup , i think its important to bend your knees and get low , so you are like a coil spring ready to un leash that energy , this will help with balance when you get hit by the foam or as you try to go around the breaking part of the wave ......here im at speed hanging on and getting low .....</div>

There was no computers in the house to turn on and check in with the tides,swell size ,wind guru,or web cams to check your spot of choice .It was all about the stoke ,surprise, the froth or disappointment of the conditions of the ocean that day.<br />

well its good to be home and getting out there in the waves .There has been plenty of them all week and the weekend is also looking great .Grabbed the go pro and got out there to capture some shots .I used the paddle to mount the camera to see what i could capture.........<br />
After all the rain this week on the east coast it was a little fresh in the water so there was no hesitation<br />
to grab my new quiksilver cypher steamer 3mm by 2mm ...with its taped seams i was as warm as toast.<br />
With my recent board change to the starboard team there boards are set up to use FCS control systems ,<br />
this has now given my the chance to try the range of starboard and FCS range in all my boards ,the starboards fin box set ups have 5 boxes giving the rider a excellent chance to try heaps of different combos on there boards ....i really love the feeling of changing fins from 2 plus one to a quad and seeing and feeling the difference....its awesome ......i have been riding the 7,7 zane schweitzer pro model and really liking it in anything from 1 foot to around 5-6 feet any conditions rainy, windy or clean its a cracker of a little board coming in at 98 litres volume.....check them out at www.starboardsup.com.<br />

fun testing the new equipment for 2013 .I was looking forward to jumping on a starboard for the first time which happened to be the 4 days before the event. The surf was not as big as last year but still very challenging to say the least ....one thing about tahiti is knowing the break and knowing that if you fall you will pay the price ...going up on the reef .So once we were at the event site i pretty much surfed my brains out at the break and trained on my new 8,0 starboard till i felt comfortable with where i was at . Tahiti is very laid back and everyone is kind and giving but when the contest starts its game on . The internet over there is not so good so its very hard with live feeds unless you have a big budget so the contest guys were doing there best to relay to the world what was happening .<br />
I really wanted to make a point of winning my heats and not just get through so i was stoked to win every heat to the final ...but came up short in 3rd ....i was really stoked and had a great week in tahiti , big congrats to everyone and especially sean poynter for the win . Id like to thank my family and partner shelly for her support at home , and without her i would not be able to do this also quicksilver for there<br />
support and confidence in me , starboard sup for there great boards and equipment and Kona red for there<br />

<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><i>New Sponsorship support .....frothing .....</i></span></b></h2>
<br />
Hi Guys ,well I'm stoked to announce that I'm now representing 2 new sponsors .Quiksilver Watermans collection and Kona Red [Hawaiian super fruit antioxidant juice].<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-6yPfp1k3XsE/T5GhrEb1KbI/AAAAAAAAAVA/IwOhQrzP_C0/s1600/P4193099.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-6yPfp1k3XsE/T5GhrEb1KbI/AAAAAAAAAVA/IwOhQrzP_C0/s320/P4193099.jpg" width="207" /></a></div>
Im really excited about going forward with both companies , quicksilver has a reputation for being the "surfers" brand and with its surfers such as Tom Carroll , Kelly Slater , Steph Gilmore and Jamie Mitchell just to name a few , so I'm really stoked to have the opportunity to represent and build a relationship with them.<br />
Kona Red is a drink i came across whilst in Hawaii last year and a mate of mine put me onto it , i love it .<br />
Check out the link by clicking the logo on the blog to see more info on my favourite drink....Im stoked with Kona reds support ,thanks guys .<br />
Im off to France next week for 10 days to compete in the stand up world tour , really excited as i have never been to france and it should be great . <br />
I have just started a small radio spot every friday on an internet radio through the USA supported by Hobie sup called 'radio chum' you can go to the web site distressedmullet.com and go to the links to down load the player , it plays all types of music but has all kinds of stuff such as my small spot called 'froth fridays ' pretty much me talking about whats new in stand up paddle boarding in Australia and whats happening in my backyard .....check it out , you may get a laugh .....<br />
Got a new sup RAW board 8'4 coming soon that i ll pick up in France thanks to Hobie ,and colin mcphillips for getting it to me ....so I'm frothing for that ......thanks HOBIE and all the team.<br />

</tbody></table>I love summer in Australia ,the waves are really good ,the waters warm and it all seems to be meant to be if your a surfer .....i have been enjoying this feeling more than ever lately , and why not ,lifes too short to stress ,and worry, its better fun in the barrel ...... stand up is to much fun ......<br />
i have a few boards at the moment that are by far my best yet off Hobie , i don't really notice they at all ,and that s a good thing ....when you feel your catching rail or bogging a turn theres some thing not quite right , but when its on that magic board it all is working fine ....summer time we all love it where ever we live ......<br />
<br />
I have a contest in france next month , and it will awaken the winter in me , 4,3 steamers ,oh well thats what makes summer so good the cold you have to endure to get to summer ......stay warm ....justinjustin hollandhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03193126741582352592noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7360113615743977013.post-85380087587331005602012-03-12T03:10:00.000-07:002012-03-12T03:10:33.590-07:00home and love in it ......<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

</tbody></table><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">We stayed in a hotel around 3 km from the beach and event , i was interested to here that there is around 10 million people that live in lima .Afternoons were quite but by 5.00pm till late the place would crank up , and the city would come alive.We would have early mornings up at 6.00am and gone by 6.30am and not return from the days events till around 6.00pm so every night after dinner it would be 10.00 or 11.00pm before we got to bed , but i look back now and think well we made the most of it.The food was great and there local dishes were beautiful , we eat at a different place every night to experience as much as we could .I was surprised at how modern Mira flores was but it is a wealthy area and it was described as a classy bali /indo if that makes sense ,but i thought it was really nice .We did venture an hour and a half away towards puter hermosa and the conditions of living rapidly fell away , the land scape really turn dry and large sandy hills with small houses stacked on top of each other appeared everywhere.It was an epic trip to much to tell all now i'll continue more in my next blog stay tuned for more on peru ...till next time..........i love Australia .........justin</span>justin hollandhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03193126741582352592noreply@blogger.com0
