Go in early March, Steve.
Take him to a proper game of footy like Richmond, Carlton Rd 1 at the G.
Try some decent food.
Maybe luck into an ocean swell.
Sounds like a good plan Buddy.

How much to go watch a game at the G?

Re: Just general surfing stuff

I was going to take my son to Sydney, but tbh I think I might go to Tullamarine.
Can fly straight in from Ballina.

Summer only.

All the fresh wank around Sydney is a turn off for me- I think I prefer the grime and grit of the industrial aesthetic.

Re: Just general surfing stuff

You won't get to ever try that air section Buddy.

Kale said they will only use it for private sessions with exorbitant rates.

I hope I see the day when they all go broke and get turned into frog ponds.

Re: Just general surfing stuff

The real question- in a city built on the surf are there enough cashed up kooks willing to throw down a 100 for a surf session.

Re: Just general surfing stuff

Pretty shitty review actually.

Brock "forgot" to mention the most crucial factor: cost.

His demographic of cashed up adult learners will mean that air section will never be seen.

And the wave looks clearly smaller than the Melbourne tub.

I don't think wave pools have "changed the game" at all.

Early research is indicating hormone disruption is leading to a rise in beta-cucks.

That's why those pasty white English immigrants are full of them.

Re: Injuries Blog

Looks like my MTB accident.

I kept it covered and healed it slowly with Manuka honey.

Bathed it with dilute tea tree every night.

It will take a while mate.

It would be significant but he would have no idea about specifics- that information is concealed in commercial in confidence documents.

Re: Just general surfing stuff

I think I may have told this story before. The day after Council overwhelmingly rejected the WSL proposal, Lennox Point gave us a perfect Bluewater, 6ft day. It was like the Point itself was grateful and in return was offering this incredible gift back to it's protectors and stewards. It was like a ...

Re: Just general surfing stuff

We only have the results of that questionnaire mate- a pro contest rival questionnaire was barely answered.

Anyway mate, we won the argument in the public square and then won the political battle.

So what you think isn't even on the fringes of being relevant.

Re: Just general surfing stuff

You prefer it as a second tier (CS) or top tier (CT) event?

I much prefer it as a CT event.

Re: Just general surfing stuff

Same loudspeaker but everything else is right.

Way more impact down here from CS because of the massive number of competitors/entourages etc etc- they call come down in packs.
