Re: surfing tips and tricks.

don't surf sucky low tide close-outs.

find easier better waves when you are learning, especially as adult.

finding the right conditions could be way more than half the battle.

Re: winter fourteen

admittedly, better south of the border, but a lingering complex low pressure near New Zealand with a following strong Tasman low. Days of OK to great Point surf and with the current inshore bathymetry, fun as a hatfull of monkeys arseholes. Whats not to get excited about?

Re: Single Fins

some are, and some some are just heaps of shitt.

the hepas vastly outnumber the good ones.

tail rail and foil look horrible on that one of Iggs.

But go ahead and give it a twirl.

Re: winter fourteen

both access G and GFS have some sort of low/trough combo deepening on the leading edge of a strong high drifting through the eastern bight into the Tasman this weekend. Then the low coalescing somewhere off the west coast of NZ.

I see a week of Point surf here on that scenario.

ah, re: the sig, I actually thought that was pretty funny.....didn't mean it to be a dig at all.

Re: Kelly Leaves Quiksilver

It's not that beery, here's how it feels to me You know when you go down to the pub and have a drink with some of the crew and sometimes there's a guy in the corner who just doesn't like you, constantly tries to niggle you with shit for whatever reason of his own. Nobody else does, just this guy an...

Re: Kelly Leaves Quiksilver

Finn, if you read the latest reports from Quik it was obvious in their forecasts that sales and EBITA were down. Sometimes the market corrects gradually and in a timely manner, sometimes it corrects suddenly and irrationally. Anyway, thats besides the point. I think Slater saw it coming.....and prob...

A couple of weeks ago they were ticking along nicely in your view. Now they are fcuked. That result just didn'...
