Winter is here in Southern Africa and our epic coastline recently kicked into rhythm with a series of solid swells. Cape Town boomed with 20-footers while KZN, and everywhere in between, dished out groomed perfection for all the winter surf warriors. Beyrick de Vries punts his way on to his first cover of the Zag with a lofty stalefish grab in Mozambique as he takes a break from the WSL QS grind and shines light on his sabbatical from the tour. The latest Issue of Zag (Vol. 40.5) is currently landing in stores and subscribers post boxes nation wide, we hope you enjoy reading it as much as we enjoyed putting it together. In the mean time, here’s a taste of what you can expect to find inside.
Watch the video teaser for Vol. 40.5
