Up-and-coming surfer Simo Mkhize (23) from Umzumbe will be starring in a surf film being broadcast on CNN (channel 401 on DSTV) from this Saturday, February 6.
The show is called CNN Inside Africa – a CNN documentary shot by Peter Rudden and Michael Cross.
Each week, Inside Africa – CNN International’s longest-running feature show – introduces it’s audience to innovators, entrepreneurs, tech trailblazers and artistic visionaries shaping the future of the African continent.

Simo recently had a major setback, breaking his leg in two places.
Nicolette Tilley, who is assisting Simo during this difficult period, reported back that he is “doing well, considering” and was going for a check-up this week.
