Re: Bells Beach.

It seems to be looking better for swell. Thinking about packing a 7'0'. Anyone know the best way to get from Tullamarine to Torquay? And anyone in the area got a beater bike to sell or hire for the Easter period? Cheapest way would be a bus to Spencer Street Station. Train to Geelong. Bus to Torqua...

Re: Four Corners & Wavepool

Wal-Mart Pipe Masters? Microsoft Bells Beach Pro? Ikea US Open? Got a good ring to them. Well the '83 world tour included the Renault Sport pro, the Foster's Pro, Marui pro, Beaurepaires Open and 2x Sun Country pros, so why not? It has only really been since the early 2000s that contest sponsorship...

Re: Sandy D

Guy drowned at Warriewood. Dunno if he was surfing. Details are sketchy. Also told another guy got washed off at Nth Curly. Near drownings at Bondi and Cronulla too.

Sandy is a nasty bitch.

Re: Snapper riffing

Just saw an interview with Alana Blanchard after her heat. She was asked about the board she was riding. She could name the shaper, but didn't know anything else about it. Not even the length. Do they just hand em to her and say, here, surf this, It'll go ok. Couldn't see Steph or Sally doing that. ...

Inform your wife that you are "rooting" Alana Blanchard. Report back with your findings.
Is a fat lip a "finding". You did say rooting Alana Blanchard didn't you?

Re: Snapper riffing

Charts are going from sweet to fcuking insane. I see a potential finish at 6ft Kirra. Hmmm, I'm not so optimistic Steve. EC is progging not so friendly winds (E/SE) and building with yet another low forming in the Coral Sea. If I were event organisers, I'd be running the event from Sat-Tues/Wed and...
