Last month the fourth annual PNG surfing titles took place at Kavieng and local surfer, Titima Mange, took the open honours again. Since he won the juniors at PNG's first national titles in 2007, Titima has been a mainstay on the winners dais. According to Nicholas Warhurst, who has travelled to Papua New Guinea three times and also took these photos, Titima "shreds in a total island style".

The Gold Coast has never known such style! Earlier in the week Italian surfer and photographer, Marco Delledonne, and his amico, Paolo D'Angelo, headed out to Duranbah for a surf.

Ballard charges the Nulla reefs stand up but saves the lid for when the Island is pumping. Wingnut, who had his own signature bodyboard back in the day, now rides stand up and today he had a crack at the Island on it.

Monday's big east swell got into most nooks and crannies of the Sydney coast, however the size and strength overpowered many spots turning them into closeouts.

After an epic week of waves Carissa Moore beat Sofia Mulanovich to win the Commonwealth Bank Beachley Classic.

The second day of the Nike 6.0 Lowers Pro saw World Tour surfer Jadson Andre, young local talent Tanner Gudauskas, and up-and-comer Gabriel Medina, push performance barriers in the clean one-to-three foot waves at Lower Trestles to post the highest scores of the event. Andre locked into a clean lefthander to unload the highest single wave score of the comp, a nearly-flawless 9.87 out of 10 with an impressive combination of powerful carves before pulling out his signature, frontside air-reverse to add to his 8.60 for the highest heat total of the event (18.47 out of 20).

Ahh, to be young and impatient again... Late last week, with the forecasts firm on a big swell for this week, Matt Tennent and mates got the itch for waves.

The opening day of the Nike 6.0 Lowers Pro saw several of surfing's elite put on a show in playful one-to-three foot waves at Lower Trestles in San Clemente, Calif.

From morning gold to afternoon grey, John Clark captures Dee Why Point in two very different moods.

It might do a great job of dodging south swells but the Manly to Queenscliff stretch comes into its own when the swell is from the east or north.

Welcome to colour therapy, Grant Davis style. The surf is pumping, water is green, and the sky is the colour of blue, Pantone 292. To complete the course check the excellent video that Grant put together of the same sessions these shots were taken from. All photos by Grant Davis.

In case you all weren't aware, Nick Veitch provides the evidence that West is most definitely Best.

During the Easter break a group of surfers including Mark Matthews, Dean Morrisson, Brett Bircher, Paul Morgan and Makua Rothman spent their time chasing deepwater waves off Australia's southern coast.

When the Rip Curl comp moved to Winkipop during Day 3 it was an opportunity for the Bells Legends (read: crusty old blokes) and freesurfing pros to hook into the Bells Bowl.

This time of year it's all about Vicco and Bells and the pros who plunder its slopey, wind-affected faces. James Page caught them gorging on a wave that isn't Bells during a session that featured no pros. All photos by James.

Whether it be an uptempo foxtrot, a hip-swingin' mambo or just some good ol' fashioned bootscooting, Occy has always been hot to trot.

Following yesterdays Session featuring the Cronulla homeboys, here is a gallery with the Cape Solander 'away' team - all those crew from north of Botany Bay heads.

It may have been the Maroubra fellas that broke it to the mainstream but it was Cronulla surfers that were the first to ride Cape Solander. They surfed it for four or five years, joined by a few bodyboarders, among them Cronulla legend, Steve Doney. Later on, in the 1980's, a group of Cronulla bodyboarders began surfing it and gave it the name Cape Fear (or Deniro's).
