RealSurf Surfers' Forum

Mate, I've had two breaks from surfing. Once when I was living in Sydney. I went and spent 10 two weeks in INDO doing the boat charter thing, came back to the shit surf and crowds in Sydney and lost interest very quickly. I had 10 years out of the water until I met my new brother-in-law who lived do...

Been having a blast with the kids pushing them onto little waves on their bodyboards. They are finally at the age when they find being dumped amusing, and just totally frothing out on faceracing 1-2ft windswell. Catch 50 waves an hour and just melt into bed at sunset. I took a board but couldn't do...

My favourite repair was a three inch deep fin gouge in the rail of a tuflite. After a bit of on line searching and a brief but very much appreciated chat to the guy at Jacksons on the phone I got some epoxy putty, bunged it in the hole, sanded back, got some araldyte and matting, applied that, sand...

When I ride waves like this I really do appreciate how good the guys that take on Choppers and Pipe ...

Love this time of the year!!!

Sorry Packa checked the local news - No sign of reported shark attack in recent times

And that's a good thing right...the no shark attack, not the dribble surf!
