If you live on the Gold Coast chances are you have heard their names. Nikki being one
of the best chick boogers on the coast, with some good contest results under her belt.
Adam is a Drop Knee Soldier, who rips on the belly as well as being a contest machine.
Rosie actually was crowned Aussie champ in 2002. Two of the best people on the
coast have been riding for BBS since it’s opening.
Adam and Nikki are not only bodyboard operators, but parents. Their 3 kids are
some of the happiest you will ever see and seem to love the beach more than anything.
The next generation to own Dbah perhaps?
Nikki Barnes
Adam Rose always gets fans asking to take photos
We got Adam and Nikki to interview each other to find out a bit more……
Nikki: Why dont u tell everyone where u grew up surfing.
Adam: Hometown is Coffs Harbour and I lived there all my life. So many great breaks
in such a short distance. Reefs, wedges and crazy beachies. And more importantly
no crowds.
Nikki: Remind me why we moved away…..
Adam: Well if u stopped getting pregnant we wouldn’t have had to move to the goldie
chasing money.
Nikki: I obviously prone alot better than you…how do u feel about this?
Adam: I’m sick of you getting all the barrels.
Nikki: How long have you been bodyboarding for?
Adam: Well over ten years. I was always a versatile rider but in the last few years
i’ve been all DK to try and get better at it.
Nikki: So why dont u just stand up…i mean you’re halfway there with DK?
Adam: Do u really wanna go there?
Rosie links up with Matt Brockie down South
Nikki: So what are you watching most on t.v at the moment…besides horendous
Disney movies?
Adam: South Park and any movies that you dont like are generally my favourite.
Nikki: Why do people call u bangers?
Adam: It depends on who u ask. One version is from the cartoon bangers and mash.
The two monkeys.
Nikki: Do I want to know the other version?
Adam: Ummmm.
Nikki: Right. Anywho. If you won the lottery what would be the first thing you would
buy?
Adam: How much did i win?
Nikki: I dont know, its the lottery. A heap of money.
Adam: Well i need to know how much cause then i can work out priority items.
Nikki: Omg, seriously. 10 mill.
Adam: A new car.
Nikki: Wrong answer.
Adam: oh.
Nikki: Ok, your turn.
Adam: How long have you been boogin for and where did you grow up surfing?
Nikki: Well I guess going on about 10 years now. Shit thats ages, you’d think I’d be
better by now. Hahaha. Shout outs to the Urunga crew. Far superior to anything that
Coffs has to offer.
Adam: So why bodyboarding and not stand up like the other 98% of chicks that start
surfing?
Nikki: Honestly. When I first started the booger guys were so much nicer than the
arrogant standup guys.Then i realised it was more fun. So um, yeah bonus.
Adam: So are you skimpy bikini or practical butt coverage when surfing?
Nikki: I enjoy keeping my junk safely tucked away in my trunk….besides you wouldnt
let me.
Adam: Family missions to the beach are hectic. Is it worth it?
Nikki: Yes absolutely. Leaving you with them when they are screaming and fighting
is truly wonderful. I run down the beach with a spring in my step and a smile on my
face. freeeeeeeeedom.
Adam: Meanwhile im whimpering..clutching your leg desperately. Dont leave me
with them…….
Nikki: meh.
Adam: Why is KFC so good?
Nikki: Its not. Its rubbish.
Adam: So, i’m going away for 2 weeks soon for DKS and leaving you at home by
yourself. How does that make you feel?
Nikki: You couldnt survive 5 mins without me you pansy. I doubt Trevor will make
you coffee’s.
Adam: Are we done yet?
Nikki: i believe so.
