"Hold these hearts courageously, As we walk into this dark place, Stand steadfast beside me and see, That love is the Province: Of the Brave." - TV on the Radio 'Province'

It was only so many years ago that a troupe of pros surfers were violently evicted from the west coast of South Australia. For many years following that incident sponsor stickers and cameras were guaranteed to raise the ire of locals. The other surfers are Sam Jervis, owner of EP Surfshop in Port Lincoln, and local ripper, Pete Tomlinson.
