Was so amazing meeting this legend of a man @chefmattstone but it was even better getting to taste his creations last night at the #coallotoflove event that @balterbrewers put on. Thanks for sharing it with us all, we had so much fun!

Bit of a bummer not being in Brazil competing but at least there are some positives! Tomorrow I get the chance to be pouring beers and work behind the bar @balterbrewers also get to eat some great food by @burgersbyjunior hope to see you all there! #withenjoyment

These rippers and a couple of hundred more are all headed to Vicco's Phillip Island this weekend as the Subway Surf Series makes it's way around the country. #subwaysurfseries @subway_australia #eatwellgo #surf

Good blokes good beer @balterbrewers

I know there was barrels for weeks in the last swell but it was so good to try fit in some rare turns too. Thanks @moceanmediahouse for the rare shot!

Thank you TC Winston for a week of this! @swillpics

Nothing like the feeling of sitting in a blue cylinder and the end result is smiling with sunburn, bad rashes and cramps!

Thanks for a great day down south with some good lads! Your hospitality @lowey01 was the nothing but amazing. @mfanno @corey_wilson @followthefishtv @jessepolock @cooperchapman #fishgotworked

The guys at @gasposters have got this Pat Stacy Backdoor gem available as a poster, along with a bunch of crazy surf, skate and snow images. Check em out. #gasposters #patstacyphotos

Slice of heaven #dbah @18secondsmag

Great times on Australia Day with our @balterbrewers family.. Love to you all!! @mfanno @bededurbo @josh_kerr84 @azawaters @antmacdonald

When I was a kid I wanted to grow up and surf like (pictured) my uncle Darryl Parkinson, after watching him today on this gem at the young age of 54 I still do! Thanks for giving us all the surfing blood! #inspiration #8secondbarrel #6secs #4secs #onewave #style @mitchparkinson @snapperrockssc @swillpics

Sometimes it can feel like flying! Not sure why my arms turn into wings cause I definitely can't fly. #emu

Locked and Loaded for a little afternoon surf! @toyota_aus

Great afternoon fishing with these boys today.. @willtaylor25 @micktaylor20 and sorry for taxing your fish @robco65

Very exciting times at the moment as its all coming together @balterbrewers #363kegs CTO working hard! #chieftastingofficer @mfanno @bededurbo @josh_kerr84

The moment before you think about making the wave or just sanding there and watching it... #happyplace @shaynenienaber

Dinner at my fave restaurant @finsrestaurant with my fave people..

2 days into 2016 and I'm surfed out already.. @juan_medina_jcm and thanks for the fun morning @hazza_twins

This was my last wave of 2015!! Was a little nugget at #snapper this morning. Happy new year to everyone and let's hope for health and happiness for 2016. to all! @joliphotos

Had the best day yesterday with all my @snapperrockssc family!! Love you all! Well done to @joshg11 for Taking it out. #heartandsoul of our club.

This is my favourite 6"3 @jsindustries1 and I was worried i was going to break the board or me on this wave before I got to surf against @ottz16 in round 3. #tomorrow #billabongpipemasters @kennymart_photo

Ok... So me and this guy are going to have another heat except this one is bigger then all the rest before. Whoever finishes higher on the WSL ratings wins. The loser has to post 5 consecutive shots of the winner on Instagram. Kai has become one of my closest friends on tour over the last few years so I we thought we'd have a little side bet to push each other along a few months ago... but didn't realise it would come down to a heat at pipeline. Best of luck Kai

Not a bad pong table arena!! @mitchparkinson playing my little man Mahli

I had to repost this photo of the boys at Axel's Bday party yesterday. Thanks uncle @whoisjob for the good times! @monicaparkinson81 @damienhobgood @lyndieirons @chargoods

By far the best boardshorts I've ever worn! @billabong #surfallday

Been really enjoying surfing sunset the last few days and it's great to be back surfing the contest. It's been 5 years since I've competed in this event and can't wait for the next few days out there.. @boskophoto

Starting to feel a lot like Christmas!! #family #selfiebyEvie All my loves @monicaparkinson81

Been a fun year on tour with these boys and there's one thing left to do for @mfanno we will be there supporting you all the way! @ottz16

Last blast before dark..

Happy birthday to my little man!! 5 today can't believe it.. Love you son.

Coming back to my favourite city just isn't the same without my family it almost makes missing you guys harder. I'm never going to be one to complain and I completely realise how lucky I am but F>

Just find the speed and let it all go... 2nd best feeling in surfing after standing in the barrel. This was at J Bay this year and I'm not sure who took the but thanks!
