Re: Having a break form surfing?

Been missing from surfing for about 5 years!! Back issues and then KIDS. Trying to keep up my swimming, helps with the back issues but unfortunately the kids need to get a little older before I can consistently gt back in the water. My biggest issue is consistency in anything fitness wise I do, kid...

Re: It's the summer of 69'ers

Is the surf in sydney as shit as it is here? Riding hulking boards in tiny waves is fun for a while but I need to sink a rail soon. Maybe friday. Surf any 10 foot sydney slabs with your fellow cube-monkeys Iggs? No surf, but we just had a tornado at Kurnell, with more storms hitting the coast & Mou...

Re: It's a marathon not a sprint, Spring '15

Barely any spring time thunderstorms down in Sydney so far. famous last words. Good, I love a big thunderstorm. Darkening skies, watching the radar, the rumbling in the distance slowly getting closer, the change in wind direction & then BOOM! Chaos, destruction, wind, rain, hail, lightning & thunde...

Re: It's a marathon not a sprint, Spring '15

I believe most of it but don't think it will be felt similarly on the coast. I just think all that energy in the upper ocean has to go somewhere. My call is a horrific el Nino pattern until mid January then a big monsoon season bringing us back to slightly positive SOI. Anywhere south of you and we...

Re: Jeffreys Bay Pro 2015

They don't feel pain mrmik. They don't have the receptors. Doesn't much matter what you do. And on a big shark the gill covers are at least half a metre back and you have to reach past the open jaws. Plus their skin is made of teeth. I had to google that (pain in sharks). You're absolutely right. I...

Re: DY Point tonight

Tuesday night maybe, but not sure if the groundswell will get up to the minimum 3+ metre mark.

More chance Thursday night with the afternoon peak in swell size, but the moon will be down to ~60% mark.

Reality is like a rubber band. The further you pull away from it, the harder it will smack you when you are least expecting it.
