Re: Shark attack at North Bombo

"was surfing about 100m out to sea on the northern end of the beach — not far from recent sightings of large white pointers — when he was attacked about 7pm."

Re: Advice for a 3rd board

Just to clarify things a little, I wouldn't consider Gumby an Intermediate surfer.

Gumby your better than that, your just being modest.

Should catchup again soon.

Shane entered the water, proceeded to catch ONE wave. Then promptly exited and left. :-( I've only seen him once since then, but I know he is still a...
