RealSurf Surfers' Forum

Now that's weird, I was down at Bronte and Tamma earlier today and it was seriously solid. 6foot +. A few guys were getting some at Bronte, but Tamma was maxing out with no one in the water.

Worst fad: Those stand up goatboat things.

The Coffin ride is considered a variation on the sitting position: On occasion, sitting was used by traditional Hawaiian surf-riders, see Interesting. I do em occasionally when I take the mal out on small days for a bit of a laugh. Other styles: There's also the handstand, and the one with the chic...

Dropknee resembles a heavily handicapped person attempting to get out of a wheelchair.

It's about the most ungraceful thing you see riding the waves, with the possible exception of old blokes on goatboats.

This is Sydney southside.

Whatever you want to call it, "dropknee" resembles a heavily disabled person trying to get out of a wheelchair.

Thinking of going to Hossegor mid-Oct/early Nov. Wondering what waves like, given prime time is suppose to be Sept-Oct, also water temp, how cold, will 3/4 steamer do.
