Exclusive Interview + Invitation from Mark Occhilupo
You may be wondering what I’ve been up to of late since I’ve been missing from the Fuel TV commentary team and the WSL event commentary?
I’m still doing a little bit of work for Fox Sports and other media outlets, but in truth I haven’t had much time to miss the full-time commentary gig. I have been super busy working with Nam Baldwin, trainer to some of the best, including Mick Fanning, getting fit and surfing heaps.
I’ve also been busy running my two boys Jay and Jonah around for surfs out front at the Superbank and up and down the coast. Jay, my eldest son, has also been competing in the grom comps where he has been doing quite well.
It has been a great Autumn in QLD with great waves and I have really been enjoying my surfing. (I’ve lost a bit of weight so that helps!) However, it has been small for a couple of days now so my thoughts have turned to my up and coming trip with The Perfect Wave to S Resort Aloita in the Mentawai.
I absolutely love the Mentawai with the fantastic people and of course the waves and can’t wait to get back.
Sit back and watch the interview I did this week for my friends Ben, Jamie and Andy at The Perfect Wave.
This is also a special invitation to join me on my Legends trip to S Resort Aloita this September 2 to 9, or get yourself over to the Mentawai on a charter or land camp stay with your buddies – you will never look back.

I have used The Perfect Wave for both land based and boat trips and Marie and TPW team have always gone above and beyond for me. The Occy trip was amazing from start to finish and can’t wait for my trip next year… I also plan to do the Occy trip again next year. To be able to spend a week with Occy was a lifetime experience.

Nick (2015 Occy trip to Aloita Mentawai)
Wow. Best trip of a lifetime. Charlie looked after everything perfectly on The Perfect Wave’s end, and Aloita was in a class of its own. The waves – perfect. Better than the pictures. The food – almost too much to handle. It is better than they describe. The staff – so accommodating and hospitable, it has a tropical island feel about it but the staff make you feel as if you were home. We were pretty stoked they got satellite tv installed the week before we got there – live footy, beers and a pool table after a few surfs. Living the dream as we kept saying. Thanks to everyone at The Perfect Wave and Aloita Resort for making it the best time.
