We need you. Yep, every now and then Box of Light needs your help and today is one of those times. We want to always be improving Box of Light and to do that we need you to complete this survey for us. Your answers will help us to refine what we're doing, understand what motivates you and deliver an overall better Box of Light experience.
It's a fun survey, too. You just tell us what you want to see more of: more surf, more sunrises, more beach girls, more beaches and what you like to do most: surfing, photography, work and play. Best of all, you can win some great prizes as well thanks to our friends at Canon, Skullcandy and Neff. Top prize is a Canon Powershot D30 waterproof and shockproof camera followed by some Skullcandy Hesh Headphones, Neff gear and we're even throwing some signed Seasons books into the mix. Start the survey here.
You may have noticed we've been travelling a lot lately and this past week we had some work coincide with a surprise swell and offshore winds at Wellington's Lyall Bay. Between meetings we managed to get out to see this fabled wave breaking right alongside the airport. We even saw a few Air New Zealand birds touch down just a few hundred metres from the peak.
It's nice to see waves in the capital and to explore some of its vibrant streets at night. I found one alleyway off Cuba Street that offered restaurants with every type of food you could imagine. And they were all packed and buzzing with people from all walks of life.
Scratch that itch, go and explore somewhere new.
See you at the beach ... Derek
