放映されるそうです。結構面白そうなので是非観てみてください。
“SONS OF BEACHES’’
Monday November 7, 2005 8pm
“My grandmother’s my inspiration, you know. She just only ever wanted me to do good’’ Koby Abberton
“I think Koby and my brothers and our friends would be, would be in jail or dead, you know. The beach is a great escape and it’s free.’’ Sunny Abberton, brother
“Everything was at stake because I brang myself out of such a hard situation when I was a kid. I thought I might go back to it’’ Koby Abberton
“I always comfort myself in the fact that if he dies surfing, he dies doing something he loves’’ Paul Chandler, friend and community social worker ’
Koby Abberton has a life most people could only dream of; unlimited travel, surfing the world’s best waves and plenty of money.
Over the past five years, Abberton, 26, has made more than 200 international trips in pursuit of giant waves.
His face adorns billboards worldwide. He’s been on more magazine covers than any other Australian surfer. But his path to becoming one of the world’s most successful ‘”big wave’’ surfers has been troubled.
He grew up in a Housing Commission flat in the Sydney beach suburb of Maroubra. His mother was a heroin addict. The surf became his escape from drugs, poverty and violence.
But two years ago, Abberton became entangled in a court case resulting from the death of a notorious Sydney underworld figure Anthony Hines. His older brother, Jai Abberton was acquitted of the murder earlier this year even though he admitted shooting Hines.
But although the worst was over for Jai Abberton, Koby was still facing the prospect of jail, as police had charged him with hindering their investigations. He is now awaiting the verdict of the court on November 24.
If convicted, he stands to lose much of what he has worked to achieve including his lucrative sponsorship deals.

１２月２１日(水曜日)に発売されるSTAB１月/２月号にビラボンの最新DVD 「PASSION POP」が付録で付いてきます。価格は$１９．９５なので雑誌としてはちょっと高いと思う人もいるかもしれませんが、このDVDはコレだけで$２０以上価値がありそう相当凄い物だと思うのでオーストラリアに住んでいる方々には相当お買い得な一品だと思います。俺は間違いなく３個位購入します。
