What are you doing here, kook? Never seen your face before. You wanna catch some of our waves do you?

Oh yeah...

Well, first you must answer these twenty questions. Use your brain, kook. Google doesn't work out here!

Write your answers in the comment box below. They won't appear straight away, but don't worry, me and the boyz have received them and all your answers will appear in a few hours time.

No way will you...will anyone, guess them all. Spread them across a few comments if it helps.

Answers revealed 3pm tomorrow. The most correct wins.

Good luck, kook.

6. South African surfer infamous for never winning a heat in his lone CT year.

7. Name the surfer who links soul singer Isaac Hayes with Derek Hynd, and also describe the link.

8. What is the only Australian wave namedropped in The Beach Boys, ‘Surfin’ USA’?

9. Two famous, blonde-haired Aussies rode three-fin boards at Bells ‘81. Who were they?

10. Taj Burrow was the first male winner of a CT on an epoxy/EPS board (Bells, 2007), however the very first CT winner on an epoxy/EPS was a female. Who was it? (Hint: She was also a West Australian)

My highest year end ranking was 8th. Only once did I make a final, which I lost to Taj Burrow at Santa Catalina, Brazil. My brother played scrum-half (Rugby Union) for the Wallabies and the Waratahs. I still work as a pro surfing coach. I am..?
