Cape Town's Brendon Gibbens sent us a "Postcard to Zag" recently claiming he's been spending the summer in search of windy ramps to bust some airs on. One of these airs, punted into the crosshore wind at Witsands, saw BG take out leg two of the Oakley One Wave Wonder. Here are a couple more waves of his from over the summer.

Dale Staples board test

|
Dale Staples has the leg strength to power through turns that will leave most of us crumpling to our knees. He's a solid unit and uses that to his advantage in powerful waves. Check him putting his boards through their paces at Supers, Bruces and a secret reef break near home.
