Mick, Joel and Kobes in S.A.

It’s an interesting fact that in the digital world we live in, a clip that’s been on the internet for two days is considered old news. Ancient. The concept of ‘getting the scoop’ has shortened web content’s shelf-life to staggering levels. That being said, this is a post for those who’ve not skimmed Mick Fanning or Joel Parkinson’s sites in the past coupla days. Mick, Joel and Koby Abberton went down to South Australia recently and scored some pristine tunnels. As we’re (kinda, almost) vibing on tube-riding at the moment (see Creative Destruction’s foray into P-Pass, last post), we were into this clip. The unnameable spots really delivered or the gang. 7,000 views too late, here it is: Road Trippin’.
