Surfing mean much to anyone here?
There's a couple of times in my life that I've finished the day and said to myself 'if I die tonight I'll die content'
Midget Farrelly would have had his share of days like that... till today the fact Mr Farrelly's sister was a ballerina was not known to me. A lucky few put these two talents together and then a fewer still can nuance it with courage & power; then put it on the line when it's pushing four to five times overhead and sucking down hill off the reef.

It's one hell of a way to 'miss spend' your youth and then some.......

Inspirational book - shame no one with big money ever had a go at the concepts on a large scale.
