Sick site. Sweet to see what free surfers get up to on the road.
I discovered this site through the Moborush site.

Who are you? I found this blog on Google but it doesn’t give your name anywhere… cool looking barrels tho!
Hello
We are urgently seeking the photographs of Mark Matthews big wave riding.
Are you able to provide contact details for the photographer (Callum Macauley)?
Kind regards

Just picked up yesterdays Herald Sun and caught your photo on Page 2 of the Sport. Had to see more on Chasing Chalk. Great shots, ballsy effort and keep it up. Non surfer, but love it.
Keep it up. Great site. Hope they all realise that you are a legend and a furking nutter. Stay alive.

Good to see you Chalky.
Hey Mark,
I know you guys had a look at my local yesterday for a surf but bypassed.
Anyway the black hole ( 8.30 – 9.30), 3 of us out and some long pits.
By the way, good luck with the site.
Love it. I promise to peak in on your progress. Put a smile on my face as I sit in an office working. Who does the music for the ‘Inside Ours’ tow-in vimeo? Thanks for the fun!
Met you up in Thurso when you were here for the QS event, sound guy and always had time for people. Was a pleasure meeting you and im enjoying tracking your journeys. Jealousy gets me everywhere
Proud of you bra putting this site together. Will keep an eye on it regularly and tell others about it also. See you when you are next in the office for a “tune-up”…or for some “panel-beating” depending on how those chalky bits of yours are holding out!!!
You’re my hero Mark. I read your blog every night before I go to bed. Stay safe, make some money and have some fun.

I’m waiting for you back in LA.
Hey mark
