Sneak Peek – 40.8

Our tribe of surfers is comprised of characters, many of whom deserve legendary status. Real salt of the earth type people with adventurous souls and inspiring stories. Sometimes our liquid paths cross – in a surf session at dawn or whilst waiting edgily for a good time to jump at that sketchy keyhole – and we get to befriend these fellow frothers. In this issue of Zag we introduce you to some of these fine characters and their stories.

Zigzag 40.8 is sailing into stores and subscribers’ post boxes nationwide. If you’ve been chained to your desk or can’t wait to get to the nearest mag stand, have a peep through the keyhole into this month’s Narnia of SA surf. This is just the beginning…

FEATURE: BELOW THE SALT
It’s almost as abundant as air and dirtier than a bellybutton, but worth as much as R100 per litre from a buyer in Jozi. Inside Durban’s seawater trade.
