August has seen some really amazing surf action over at the Billabong Pro J-Bay and at Teahupoo, Tahiti... the ASP's championship tour is seriously heating up. September is going to continue the steam train momentum as stops 6 and 7 of the dreamtour take place, and Europe holds the main events on the WQS. It's time to either get on a plane to the action or hunker down with some internet viewing time.
