Phil Jarratt says goodbye to one of the good blokes of Australian surfing.

Coupla photos from a fantastic weekend of waves.

Posting up at the wave that started the gold rush.

Now that J'Bay is over let's shift the focus a few thousand kms east.

As improbable as it was thrilling to watch - Filipe Toledo dominates J'Bay.

Take a break from watching the world's best pointbreak and enjoy this, the world's best closeout.

The highest of the highlights.
