So the title before leaving and the theme of the trip was "Skate, Surf, Safari" and it was truly all of these. Safari applies to the wild animals mostly, but also applies to the politics and other things surrounding our trip.

So the title before leaving and the theme of the trip was "Skate, Surf, Safari" and it was truly all of these. Safari applies to the wild animals mostly, but also applies to the politics and other things surrounding our trip. There will be more details and pictures following this when I get back to the daily grind. In the mean time, here are a few photos. Thanks to Girl, Lakai, Dakine, Nike SB, employees at the Park, and everyone for donating the products. The entire trip was amazing, but the best and most rewarding part was donating product to all the Zulu kids and families at the Indigo Skate Camp in the Valley of a Thousand Hills.
