Pama Davies | Dabble

// : September 11, 2017 /

Pama Davies is an Aussie kid with NZ ties, his dad is a New Zealander and had him surfing on Wayne Parkes singles and twins through his early years. Kinda shows in his smooth powerful style too. From South Australia to Fiji this edit speaks for itself, well worth your three and a half minutes.

Tyler Warren | Autumn Vacation

// : April 1, 2017 / Film

After the dust settled from The Salt Circus event, Tyler had a few days spare to travel somewhere new before flying home. This was his fifth visit to New Zealand over the years and, would you believe, Raglan was a destination he still hadn’t ticked off his list! Sure, this ain’t all time Raglan but jeez it makes us want to surf!!

Big thanks to Corona NZ and Billabong for their support on this project.

Salt Circus 2017 Film

// : March 21, 2017 / Film

As the saying goes “The best surfer in the water is the one having the most fun”. This egalitarian nature of surfing is what stands it apart and makes it so special. The Salt Circus is first and foremost about a gathering of girls, boys, young, old, frothers and friends who can come together and enjoy a historic collection of beautiful surfboards and experience the sheer joy of riding them together.

The Salt Circus 2017 went off like a rocket, the people came, the sun was shining and the waves were firing! Thank you to everyone that came along to share in something we all love so much.

Finally we would like to extend a massive thankyou to our sponsors Billabong, Corona and Allpress. Without the hard working people behind the scenes this day wouldn’t be possible.

We also wrapped this up with an art show, a bit of talk story and board display from Thomas Surfboards and one hell of a party at Mr Miyagi in Mount Maunganui on Friday evening. Big thanks to everyone that came along to celebrate! Stay tuned for the full article coming out December in DGZ Issue 18! To see the full photo set head over to our FB Album here.
