So I know a lot of you will be going up to Rocking the Daisies, but…I know…I’m going to miss you as well…I’m staying in Cape Town for the Cape Town International Boat Show where I will be stationed outside at the Cape Town International Convention Centre where the ferries come and go.

I’m in attendance as a guest of Andrew Bourne and his Bourne2Ride wakeboard camp. To those of you unaware, Andrew is a professional wakeboarder and owner of the successful Bourne2Ride wakeboard camps that he runs. I like to keep Andrew grounded by telling him that he is quite a terrible wakeboarder and he doesn’t really know much about the sport. I think we can all agree that he is not that good, judging by these photos:

That looks like the Hemisphere boat in the background

Firstly we have what he calls the Nuclear Tantrum. Big deal, I once pulled a “Semi-Retarded” and a “Cockroach” on the dance floor at Tiger Tiger after a bottle of vodka…at the same time! That is real talent!

Then here Andrew is on what looks like some sort of skateboarding rail:

Ok cool, nice. Well I still win. I once ate three Steers Wacky Wednesdays and then mixed it in my stomach with 6 Red Bulls and 3/4 of a bottle of vodka.Now that is X-TREME!

On a more serious note, I will be kicking back there doing no work while Andrew sets everything up and I sit back, perve chicks and drink Red Bull courtesy of sponsorship. The things I do…

The Boatshow Wakeboard and Wakeskate Demo takes place in association with Red Bull, Lizzard clothing and Liquid Force wakeboards.

It runs from 3-5 October from 10am until sunset with demo’s taking place every hour. It takes place in the canal between the Westin Grand and the Cape Town International Convention Centre.

So come hang out, chat to some of the pros (Andrew and the team) and also chat to some of Cape Town’s professional slackers (Myself and the SLXS crew)

I will be the one raging on Red Bull and tanning my ripped body if the sun decided to make an appearance. See you there Cape Town!
