Re: STUPID ways to ding your board

Getting my board out of the back of my car, pulling it out of the cover and dropping it tail first onto a drain grate :oops:

Yeah I've never understood this either Natho, it's really frustrating particulalry when you're trying to stay away from the crowd. Personally I'd rather surf an uncrowded peak and get a few than surf the best peak on the beach with everyone else. Maybe an idea when you see guys walking down the beac...

Fair enough, what type of business are you referring to? Another question, do you know anyone of voting age that's been affected?

Can anyone actually give me an example of how they have been personally affected by the IR laws, I'm really interested to hear. I'm in small business and I know many others who are too and those who I have asked about this are concerned about the potentail reversal of these laws. Given that we're at...

I've got a Sector 9 with a 38" deck (I think, it's not one of the really long boards they make) and 70mm wheels which are quick. I've loosened the trucks up and also the wheels a little which really helps to slide the board. I mainly carve with it but it's so much fun and as previously mentioned, pr...

Like clothes, wetsuit manufacturers sizing can be so inconsistent, so as previously mentioned, always try them on first. For example, I have 2 O'Neill wetsuits which are size L, but I also have a Quik wetsuit which is an XL cos the L was too small. No, I haven't gotten fatter :!:
So be careful.

I'll go to the dawn service at the RSL Veterans home in Collaroy Plateau and then have to spend the rest of the day moving house :x

Saw a guy out early last week at Mona Vale (maybe it was Shane?), it looked really hard and the way this guy was going it didn't look too good for your back. I fail to see what enjoyment you'd get out of it. Next surfing fad will be the return of the pedal powered floating three wheeled things (can'...

I never think about bailing but there are rare times when you have to. Don't know if anyone else does this, but when I'm stuck in that horrible place just in front of a ptiching lip, instead of using my knee to duckdive, I stand right on the tail and push down. Gets me heaps deeper than a normal duc...
