Interesting headline, no? It was sort of a “mish/mash” of what I was thinking when I first saw this. No don’t fret – there is nothing wrong with this fellow. He is wearing a wetsuit which has a shark attack design on it. Quite a vibe, don’t you think? There are a few […]
Cycling helmet attacks in the Southern Suburbs and beyond are a rarity – a rarity that surely adds to the draw of that particular semi-rural lifestyle. Well that’s all changing now, as the helmet attacks in public spaces are becoming more and more common that side of the mountain. This revolting display was taken at […]

It is not only the larny sidewalk cafe’s and trendy restaurants that are subjected to this madness and intolerable behaviour dished out by cyclists. Cyclists who seem hell-bent on wearing their helmets in public places; in some kind of sick alien-style ritual that forms the core of these helmet attacks that seem to be spreading […]
Judging by the amount of people sending the link to me, you CLEARLY missed the mention and video of Jordy Smith’s Rodeo Flip we featured last week Friday (here). Shame, maybe you should stop skimming over things? And maybe you should stop sending things before checking they haven’t been featured on 2oceansvibe? Funnily enough, I […]

You know when cameramen at sporting events do little pans of the crowd and zoom in on interesting people? Like at the tennis they often zoom in on royalty and celebrities. And at Newlands cricket they often zoom in on smoking hot drunk UCT students. Ja, well, I’m not sure if you caught the day […]
Jeepers, Roger Federer and Maria Sharapova threw out a very cool old school vibe during the first round of Wimbledon yesterday.

A quick game of tennis, wot?[source] General Sharapova[source] […]
There have been all sorts of claims and suggestions as to the Top Gear TV show mystery precision driver, The Stig’s identity over the years.

BLATANTLY ignoring Vida e’s polite public-led request (here) for cyclists to remove their helmets when frequenting their establishment; it seems that THESE cyclists couldn’t care less about the general public’s wishes regarding their grossly inappropriate, anti-social and imposing behaviour. This, sent in this morning by a 2oceansvibe reader and concerned fellow citizen. Camps Bay […]
