Adam Pitters
Name: Adam Pitman
Age: 25
Job: Doing a sports science degree course.
Years Surfing: Ermmm.. way too many to remember.
Habitat: 5 mins away from Tenby (20 mins away from Fresh West)
Boards: 2
Quiver: 6'3"and a 6'10" thruster.
Local Break: Well, that one's a secret but has to be Fresh Water West more often than not.
Favourite Surf Films: Big Wednesday but the Extreme channel rules!
Worst Wipeout: Went surfing in an 8ft swell on my 9'2" which wasn't the best idea. First wave I caught, realised it was way too steep but was already commited, needless to say I ended up getting the full spin cycle treatment. I then ate the sea floor for a while before coming to the surface and realising half my board was missing...
Favourite Manoeuvre: Has to be the new one I'm working on (Superman) involves catching a steep wave (face bigger than 4 ft) and letting the board slide out from underneath, surfing part of the wave using the chest and then pulling back on leash to get back onto board and surf the rest of the wave. Only suceeded three times.
Worst Surfing Habit: Has to be swearing at holiday makers when they drop in on my nice wave and I have to bail or else decapitate them!
Other Interests: What else in life is there apart from surfing?
