Chad Waldron - one half of the Waldron Bros venture - surfs alright. One of his goals for last year (set by his younger brother Kane) was to loose weight. According to Kane, Chad's generous belly at the time was bad for their public image. Unfortunately nobody told Kane to cut that ridiculous golly-wog cause it ain't doing them any favours either. Here's Chad working on the Waldron's public image with a 7-Up off-the-back, on a day he probably should have been filming the pros (photo: Phil Gallagher).

The second event on the sundownerholidays.com Dropknee Sessions World Tour hit Port Macquarie on Saturday at the infamous Breakwall right in the centre of town. With waves around the 4ft mark and overcast conditions it was always going to be a battle of the fittest with a huge run out tide testing all riders for most of the day’s competition. The contest kicked off with a moving tribute to local bodyboarder Ben Hall who was tragically killed in a bike accident in Bali only a few days ago.
With riders from all around the globe on hand for the big event, it was the aussie contingent who pulled rank throughout the heats and into the finals but not before some of the big names bit the dust in the early rounds with 2 time DKS winner Mason Rose being eliminated in the quarters along with World No4 Pancho Galdos. This meant that DKS Tiona event winner Grant Molony was to join an inform Dane Pope from QLD, Justin Welsh from Victoria and new kid on the block Dylan Lee, also from QLD in his first final. From the outset it was clear the waves in the final were fading fast and getting in some early scoring waves would prove the difference and that’s just what happened for Dylan Lee.
Dylan helped himself to some of the more rideable outside peaks scoring a 9.2 first scoring wave to help set himself up to take home the title, but he was certainly pushed all the way by a determine Dane Pope, also in his first DKS final. Dane bashed one of the biggest moves of the contest in the final, cranking out a massive snap-reverse on a heat winner but just came unstuck at the end leaving the door open for Lee to take the spoils and his maiden win at the DKS event and on the tour, collecting some valuable tour points for the 07 season.
At the presentation Lee said “I’m not sure what to say cause I’ve never done this before”. After being showered with champaign and collecting his winnings, Dylan and the DKS crew were stylishly chauffer driven into town in classic ‘Old Holden’s’ with AC/DC pumping in the background, all thanks to the Hastings Old Holden’s car club.
The tour now heads to Miyazaki Japan in October and then finishes up in Hawaii for the final event in December/January. For more information you can contact Clayton Pickworth on 0414608733, email cjpickworth@yahoo.com.au or jump onto the website www.dk4life.com.au for more information.

Here are some frame grabs for Simon Fisher and Grant Tyrell's new film, Dot Dot Dash. Looks like another cool production with the sort of edgy editing that any art-school graduate would be proud of.

Not many people would have seen this clip. It's from a Morey movie called 'Stewart's View' that - for whatever reason - was never released on the market. There were however some clandestine copies that were dubbed and dubbed and dubbed till they were washed out VHS blurs from too much love. Now a clip from this movie has surfaced on YouTube for you unlucky crew that missed those first copies. This is Mike in Mex circa '97.

As you can imagine the Movement office is a nice place for bored year 10 students. We get a lot of requests for work experience and sometimes we accidentely agree to four kids in the one week.... on a week that just happens to be deadline week. The boys have filled us in on what they want to see in the mag, so from now on, these guys will make up just about every page of Movement. Oh and we're changing the name to Gromment.
L to R: Cameron, Zac, Jack and Jimmy.

Above is a photo of ol' mate Pearcy tucking under in the Maldives. He wanted the cover of the mag, but we have this crazy policy of only running bodyboarders on the cover so we had to say no. We had no such policy on the web page though so we've published him here. He helped out one of the kids in the office for a few years so we're eternally grateful to the man. Despite all the good this guy does, his Gandhi impression sucks and he hangs with some real wierdos. I mean who the f*&k is the bald-Mohican-dressed Andre Agassi guy?

'Fast forward this bullshit and get to the surfing.' The segue loaded words of Ryan Hardy ring true from the above ‘There’s No I’ clip, the Waldron Bros much-awaited project.
