Already before the last tour stop (US Open, Huntington Beach, August 1-6) Carissa Moore (Hawaii) claimed her maiden title yesterday in her second season after having finished 3rd in 2010 and at 18 is the youngest ever ASP Women's World Champion . . .

Currently (July 14-24) the Billabong Pro is on in J-Bay and again there's a live webcast on the official site . . . Jeffreys Bay is awesome the whole year with even one foot and smaller waves breaking along the coast in perfect shape which is funny to watch . . .

South Africa got great landscape and a lot of friendly people and in case you go there consider a trip along the coast from Cape Town to J-Bay and catching some waves along the way . . .
