I retired from personal blogging in July 2008.
But you can find me over at http://blog.xero.com.
Boarding House: North Shore. 5 pro surfers staying in a beach house for the Vans Triple Crown surfing event.
Sunny Garcia and Damien Hobgood are the names.
Different from normal reality shows, these are famous people you already know and usually only see them through magazines and contest footage.
Sunny is the hard man of the WCT surf series. To see him dropped in on, and then ordering the offender out of the water is something you read about but would never normally see. Priceless.
Then when a drunk guy talks to his wife, Sunny has to act.
This show is fascinating. Reality TV, but a window into the pro surfing world and fantastic surf action.
Produced by Mark Burnett, so big budget.
An interesting twist when I had written off reality TV completely.
