Re: Margs
Why are they stretching it out so far? Is it an advertising / contract thing? Only 3 heats left for the men but it sounds like they're going to wait for the next swell on wednesday! They could've finished it yesterday in great surf. Why not finish it today with momentum? Some suggestion that Perrow...

Re: Indo...is it worth it
Bobby, as a self confessed kook, with no money, you have a gf shouting you an o/s surfing trip - you must have a knob and a half or she is 20 stone but good luck to you
As opposed to dreaming, is it only me that thinks I would never go back to Indo if it didn't have waves ?

Re: PNG Explorer - November?
twas the uncrowded part which got us in - and it was - never surfed with anyone else great boat, great food, Darty and Undies who run it are top blokes, warm water, fishing is absolutely ridiculous (I reckon they might get people going there just for the fishing if they tried marketing it that way) ...

Re: Fiji 2014
this 'getting better next time' stuff doesn't wash with me - Fiji being a semi-regular family holiday destination and being mid-40's, I've been to CB a few times and think I surf it now the same as the first time I did (or maybe I'm just a kook who doesn't learn) - the amount of Indo trips they do s...

Re: QuikPro Forey
Joe Turpel's voice is like nails down a blackboard after a few minutes and we get it all day now it seems - and what's with the constant basic questions to Potts ? (how does priority work Potts?, what would she be thinking here Potts?, how should I wipe my ar$e Potts?) I recall the ch 9 cricket 30 y...

Re: What is missing from so many surf videos - 4 suggestions
instead of the usual cutting to the surfer as he's getting to his feet, show a few waves starting with the 5 seconds as it approaches the surfer, showing it draining off the reef/bank and moulding itself - this is the time when you get the surge of excitement/anticipation running through you when yo...

Re: Serious injury at the Pass
very helmetist Beany my board speared me in the side of the head 20 yrs ago - perforated ear drum and a goat boater helped me out (no idea which way was up, sideways, whatever) - have wondered what may have happened if he didn't come along perforated twice again in small surf just falling off and hi...

Re: Turn of the century.
Gabriel Medina just landed a backflip in Hawaii. a real fucking backflip on a surfboard. not just a backflip then but a r f backflip - so much more cred to it then and probably wins turn of the day can't compare that circus act to http://magicseaweed.com/video/votd.php?id=495 to relate to the topic...

we left for Fiji on 9/7/10 and Sth African bloke in queue at Sydney airport seeing I had a boardbag asked where I was going - Plantation I replied, then realised the only reason he asked was so he could immediately trump me by smugly telling me he was going to Tavarua (the only news then was a few ...

Re: Samoa Tsunami
at Sa'moana that's quite a drive right along the beachfront before the road finally turns inland away from danger - I thought they might've been in trouble when seconds can mean safety or disaster - a good outcome thankfully (not sure if the couple of metres of seawall and elevation would've saved t...
