Re: Autumn

Howling south winds and rain. Noticed some polycarbonate lying on the street about two up from our place. After looking at it in passing and wondering where it might have come from we realised it was a piece of skylight and if so it had probably come from our next door neighbours on the other side f...

Absolutely shite around here. Howling onshore wind and a big sweep.

Re: Just general surfing stuff

Fuck that. I get the reasoning but no way I want to go somewhere like that. I’m going to be too busy anyway setting up my Bondi surf guide business Way too late, bro. Happens all the time at Bondi when it’s little. There’s a number of surf coaches as opposed to surf school classes that will have a ...

That’s insane. I thought it was just some stairs. Not the whole cliff face.

Re: Where did you surf today ?

That’s good, Trev. I had an Ultrasound on Tuesday. Should have an operation in two to three weeks for my hernia.
I’ve still been surfing but take it pretty easy and wearing a wetsuit seems to help. It hasn’t been hurting much lately but it’s getting bigger.

Re: Autumn

So wet around here. At least there’s no sinkholes like Dover Heights. I guess building a multi-storey luxury house with double garages for your luxury cars right on a cliff has its pitfalls.

Re: Just general surfing stuff

Although you could argue surfing has a higher proportion of random luck than a lot of sports. I think they should be required to specifically identify which god they are refering to. “I would like to thank Huey for sending me that double up barrel that got me out of a combo.” “Kanaloa God of the Sur...

Re: Can you help with a couple DVD copies ?

I remember seeing MOTE at the Capitol Coolangatta. It was a big deal. MP was just a hot local kid in those days and having him on the big screen with surf gods like Nat and guys from Sydney and Hawaii was mind blowing. Probably for him too. Saw Crystal Voyager at the Kingscliff Amenities Hall. We us...

Re: Can you help with a couple DVD copies ?

Weren’t there issues with the Doors soundtrack like a lot of old movies?
Pink Floyd gave Greenough the rights to use Echoes in Crystal Voyager and MOTE had an original soundtrack.
