Not
Even Once Extreme Surfing and Skateboarding

Big bands, booming surf, the shimmer of surfboards and roar
of skateboards will be the scene at three different corners of the Cape
Peninsula this summer. The events follow last year’s action-packed and
highly successful Not Even Once Extreme Surfing and Skateboarding
happening at Melkbosstrand.
Brown and Surrender Band will be shaking sand and surf at
the Strandfontein experience. Hailing from Cookeville in Tennessee,
27-year old Brown has been dedicating his life to helping the ‘underdogs’
in society. After television and modelling, rap song writing became his
karma - remember the album Hangin in and Hangin on, telling about Cape
Town’s street children? This is soon to be followed by his second album,
Shades of Brown. Brown also hosts a bi-weekly radio talk show, Sidewalk
Talk with Brown on CCFM and recently completed the first episode for a TV
series under the same title.
