Surfing during a tsunami: Chris Nel's Mad Surf Story

Back in 2009, Chris Nel had managed to save a bit of cash, and decided to splash out on a surf trip to Samoa. He had a couple of weeks of blissful, stress-free lazing, punctuated with great surfs on the local reef break. The day before he was due to go back home to New Zealand, the sh*t well and truly hit the fan, but rather than deal out a spoiler here, I’ll let Chris tell you in his own sweet time, and in his own inimitable style.
