Re: How is wave height measured in Australia?
OK, its time to drag out that big day at Ulus in 2008. No-one out at 7am, it was awesome! Two guys tow in at about 8:30am
Skip to 1 minute where a surfer tows in and rides from the outside bomby all the way...

So how big was it?

Yeah, good response Steve... the old adage: if you act like prey you're way more likely to get treated like prey

Re: Just general surfing stuff
Hatchy, I've surfed it a few dozen times ages ago, never when it was big as I usually went there when Cronllua was small or to avoid crowds.
A nice boil on the Northen end and a mellower break south.
Are the shacks still there?

Re: Just general surfing stuff
What a bummer AJ, things aren't going to well.
We had a caravan at the Bendalong caravan park in the 70s for a few years. Great memories, it would be sad to see Don Hearn's Cabins go.

Re: Nth NSW sharks. Can they p!ss off already?
Not a single surfer has been killed by a shark in Indonesia, nor has there been any serious injuries. :-D-: Some pretty gnarly injuries to hands at that certain rivermouth break in Bali. The locals have actively 'discouraged' talk about the last few attacks, there's been more than you'll find on so...

Since 1990 when Great Whites were protected they have made up some lost ground and are back up to about 70 percent of their historical level. But still, the recovery is going slowly. Females don't start reproducing until they're about 15-feet long.

Yep from my bicep, but chest side. There's about 20 stitches in it and there's still a big yellow bruise all around it.

Re: Where did you surf today ?
I had a fifth shot on Monday. No bad reactions at all. A guy I was hanging out with in Bali got it so it's still a thing for sure. Also had a basal cell carcinoma on my forehead cut out a week ago. Surgeon did a skin graft to cover it up. I've had a compression bandage on it for a week. I'm seeing h...
