BIG BEN WILKINSON

Yep, he crept up without many knowing how good he is. He placed 2nd at last years Pico Alto comp behind Peter Mel. Ben's originally from North Narra and now living on the North Shore (he's married to an American).

Here's a short interview I had with him last year.

@VICTOR
NO
I saw him out Waiamea one day 2 yrs back,
knew who he was and I was impressed.
that's as far as I've come to seeing him in the flesh.
A friend of mine from Santa Cruz has been speaking nothing but great words of the man since seeing him at Mavericks back in around 2007. And he has been updating me with news about Ben Wilkinson and how humble this Aussie guy is that charges hard in a foriegn country and just slips back into work with no attention or want for it.
i have nothing but respect for the man, and all i have ever heard is good words.
humble guy doing his thing. thing is, "his thing" is charging and it's just something i enjoy seeing.

photos of Ben worth a look:
