WHY I'M DOING IT

Each day in February I'm hitting the water for SurFebruary and raising funds for cancer research at Chris O'Brien Lifehouse.

The reality is that one in two of us will be affected by cancer in our lifetime. That’s a pretty big statistic. The good news is that we can make a tangible impact on how we treat cancer by contributing to innovative cancer research that benefits us all.

It only takes a minute to donate and anything you can give (no matter how big or small) will go a long way to helping people with cancer and their families.

Thank you, I really appreciate your support.

See you in the water!

My Updates

02/02/2026 - Surfebuary

Monday 2nd Feb
A quick dip with my son to get it done today. Strong wind warning blowing the crabs off the beach and almost blowing the boards out of our hands. (Gusts over 38 knots)

01/02/2026 - First day of Surfebuary

Sunday 1st Feb
First day of Surfebuary.

Started with an early start (4:00 am)  to drive to Tee Tree beat and surf before the crowd arrived.

Conditions were not the best but still a great morning to be out.
Finished off with pushing my kids in on some wave at First Point for a couple of hours.

I will give daily updates throughout Surfebuary.

I am humbled by everyone that donated so far.
All for a great cause!

Stay tuned for the next update tomorrow.

My fundraising total to date: $273.
My fundraising goal: $350
