  • THE AUDACIOUS SURF TALES OF VLADIMIR BORIS WAXANOV



    ... Story 1 - THE BALLARD OF OWEN ROBERTS

    ... Once us Aussies discovered the surf in Bali we invaded. There was hardly a beach anywhere along its coast, and beyond, where you couldn't swing a cat without hitting half a dozen Australian surfers at any given time. Now it's the turn of the Russians. Yes, they have finally come - although not armed with Kalashnikovas AK-47s but surfboards. Some every bit as surf-obsessed as any full-on charger wherever they may have come from. Some too are best described as hard-core mavericks who have devoted their whole lives to nothing but surfing. Living feral or otherwise. Vladimir Boris Waxanov is one such individual. Quite a character with a sharp mind, sharp eye and a drive to raise a laugh as much as possible. Meeting him forged an unlikely friendship and outlet for his surf tales.
