Way over in the States, up on the central coast of California is the surf-rich town of Santa Cruz. There it seems, all the fellas sport odd nicknames: Flea, Skindog, Ratboy and the like.

Much closer to home we have the Central Coast of NSW, another surf-rich stretch of coast where the inhabitants also sport odd names. And so we have these shots taken by Jughead, the dark-haired natural is Rodent, the light-haired natural is Wanga and the goofy with the killer backside style is Kerry Downs. Real name I assume? C'mon fellas, get to work, Kerry needs a nickname.

All photos by Jughead Allport taken over the last week at one of their local reefs.//STUART NETTLE
