Julian Wilson, shooting oops in Sydney, NSW

You’re well aware that Julian Wilson is from Coolum on the Sunshine Coast, but maybe you didn’t know he rents an apartment in Bondi with his gal, Ash Osbourne. He’s been kicking around Sydney’s eastern suburbs before he goes to Hawaii, enjoying the vibe as summer tunes up. He surfed Bondi yesterday morning before being sent in by lifeguards for burning through the flags on fibreglass. Then he spent the afternoon at the golf course, hitting balls at the an abandoned sewage station pipe. While Jules and Ash’s home is right in the mix, they chose not to live directly on the beach, opting instead for something a little more relaxed a few streets back. So today, rather than battling the crowds at Sydney’s most heavily-trafficked beach, he surfed the next spot south. He was out early for some pig-doggin’, but also enjoyed a lunch session, during which Brad Malyon captured this alley oop moment. So far, Jules hasn’t missed a whole lot of action in Hawaii. And the Eastern Suburbs do have a little magic at this time of year…
