dg. The owner & creator of surf98. Started surfing aged 9 in far west Cornwall, but didn't get really serious until 1976 when he was 15. A committed kneeboarder, & a school teacher he lives, works and surfs mostly on the south coast of Cornwall, but will travel whenever the chance arrives. Always on the look out for un-surfed areas (of which there are many) searching for fast breaking uncrowded lefts, absent-mindedly forgetting to tell people where he is going. dg is also a writer, film-maker & a contest judge. With an endless number of European surf trips behind him, he rates Northern Spain/South West France as best apart from home of course. Still skates 'even at his age' and has returned to cycling 'a fixie', when it is flat.
moby. Lives & works on the north coast of Cornwall, only a short walk away from the most famous surfing beach in the UK. A longboarder with a shortboarder inside just fighting to get out. He surfs as much as humanly possible, and then takes photos. He has travelled widely through France, Morocco & the Canary Islands in search of surf of course. Another skater from the old days who still skates! Our eyes and ears on the north coast.
cg. A body-boarder / mini-mal rider & a girl. Likes sunshine, France & clean hollow conditions at a certain north coast spot. Lives on the south coast of Cornwall & seems to end up at the beach all the time. Has been known to take to the water in mid-winter in a 3 mm summer suit, no gloves or boots, because the conditions looked right & then make the biggest drop of the day, with a beach full of witnesses.
