when do you head west BA?

you should sell your services to Carroll as a personal coach Loof.

he's got the disposable.

Speed is distance over time.

Do you mean 60km/hr ?

many.

the very first fish I caught on a lure in north QLD was a barracuda.

go back to your puddle jumper.

There are heaps of people who get to the stage of having a decent pop-up and cruising across the wave, and that’s when they give it up. They give it up not because it is too hard, but because they don’t find surfing compelling enough to continue. They enjoyed their surfing foray, but now prefer to ...

I reckon most young physically able teenagers could learn to surf if they really wanted to and could devote enough time to it. The thing is, the reality of learning to surf and surfing doesn’t appeal to a lot of people. It’s physically exhausting, often cold and lonely and can be scary at times. So...

One group gets a surfboard, the other a fishing rod and box of tackle. Using a basic measure, say, riding up and down a roa...

why do bike nerds get butt hurt so easily?

there, I can change the topic too.

I could, but why would I ?

For swimming I'm doing 4 laps at medium pace then one at 100%, repeated 4 times. I get slower and slower and more exhausted after each rep. But it seem using HIRT instea...

running 20k will make you less surf fit, not more.

lung capacity for surfing?

try holding your breath.

unless you're a mark on a charter boat it pretty much is.

nah. running 20km has nothing to with surf fitness.
