RealSurf Surfers' Forum

depending on where you live, try out base in manly, talk to travis or one of the guys in there...will genuinly sell you a board to suit your abilities and not one which makes them the biggest margin. do not go to surfection. ha ha ha... you have to watch out for those real estate agents who try to ...

i was paid to go surfing for 5 months in keating's "recession we had to have".
whilst unemployed i did a hospitality course on austudy benefits & learned how to pour a beer!
good times, but eventually got bored with it!
i couldn't afford the amount of pot i needed to make it interesting...

great! where do i get one ?

Saw a guy doing this the other day. He was about 45, had a couple of young kids trailing along behind him while careening down the footpath like this: 3155609.jpg It troubled me deeply. Note: image sourced from Seabreeze hill bombing in bare feet is heaps fun for ALL ages! but i'm confused, hey mic...

all you physios will be treating torn knee ligaments if this one takes off!

they can come & join the multitudes who think it's fun to paddle a sea kayak out at the sharktower on their holidays...(only the shallowest bank on the beach at the moment!)

as many have mentioned, i too use the surflok. it's really the only solution for cars with electronic keys that do everything. although i have since dropped my key into my wetsuit bucket & the F!@#$%%^ button activated keyless entry doesnt work anymore. i actually have to put the key in the door to ...

I may be having a whinge and the horse has already bolted but if as I've already said before if we generalise the reports and don't all ring our mates when we find waves then it may just help a little to lessen the crowd. I reckon it might be the other way round. Been doing a lot of actual research...

probably focusing too much on your physical being, olds, instead of your mind & spirit!

while the above two posts are extremely accurate & logical,... the trick is to drink that much bintang that the hangover is far worse than any muscular fatigue... thus putting the focus on missing out on epic waves due to a hangover, not sore muscles... THAT is enough to drag any decent surfer out o...

i'd like to be able to say the same - no I wouldn't - i moved up here in early 1993 to avoid northern beaches traffic congestion, crowds, and an excessive amount of tourists - just a moderate amount of tourists sprinkled throughout the year is MUCH better. So, I have sacrificed decent returns on pro...

ouch. back's hurt sometimes. i was off the board for 5 weeks in April/May of 2007 with a torn medial in my left knee. tore it on a surf trip to sumatra & surrounding areas. before that it was before i started surfing all year round as a kid. so from easter weekends to the end of the footy season pre...

Most people who don't surf couldn't give a rats arse about surfing, they at best find it mildly entertaining for about 15 seconds. They have no interest at all in surfers (except from a Sir Robert Helpman/Sarge perspective) and view them with anything ranging from contempt to mild amusement. Stop k...

i'm curious, if you are a backfoot surfer, why don't you like tail rocker?
my foot rolls out like you, i'm also a backfoot surfer & tail rocker, IMHO is the best thing for manoeuvring in the pocket, tight snaps off the top, is the best thing since sliced bread.

Hey Must... Yeah, I'd pay quids for that book, just for the memories. It was gold. I know the exact pottz spray. I don't think I ever ripped it, but definately did hand-cut "Gotcha" decals in tape. Josh http://www.joshdowlingshape.com same... the first surf mag i ever bought with my own money was a...

The Execution of the Adelaide My interest is as a Terrigal resident. I realise you are fighting the cause on narrow and legally sustainable grounds and perhaps of no concern to the Group is the impact on the local area by the necessary access to the dive area. Advertisements offering dive tickets a...

^A nutshell, by definition, is a useful thing. You should use the term 'useless nutshell', or my favourite - hysterectomy. You, sir are a moronic hysterectomy with a tendency to finger your own rectum with the hope of finding gold. * *The above sentence could be used to describe buffy CANASTEN - ir...

i agree. you da man, oracle. idi ots may go through life without being recognised, so therefore, will not be mo rons by definition, KK. by the way, KK, i am delighted that someone has brought this topic to light, as there are far too many idi ots out there in the surf, with no clue of what they are ...
