RealSurf Surfers' Forum

Come on Nick, this faux-preciousness is a bit much. You've already alluded to the massive conflict of interest which lay at the heart of your journalism career. You had interests to protect, chiefly those of your brother, and by extension those of the industry which supported him. Rather than a fran...

I see nuffink. I know nuffink.

I see five star rockfishing days until the four horsemen come galloping down the pacific highway.

there's shit tons of QLD'ers in town with SUPs on the roof right now.

I don;t think most of them realise there is a zero tolerance policy for SUPs in most Lennox line-ups.

I smell a riot.

Hi Roy, all the latest progression looks functional and aesthetic, as always.

Not to speak for the man himself but from my observations-based on his windsurfing fin set-ups- it seems Greenough would agree with you in respect of the torsional plane that the fin should be flexing in.

just ride a longboard and stop pretending.

neither Yasi or Tracey delivered a single surfable wave for the east Coast so I hope you're wrong.

I'll take Dinah or Betsy or Wati or Sose.

it's hard not to condemn in the strongest possible language this current abomination DonW, that being a stunning and unprovoked reversal back to northerlies and cold upwellings: Fcuk off and Die Ekman!....still, old hands counsel caution and beg for peace. The northerlies can backfill sandbars nicel...

yeah Braithy, the grass is waist high in the front yard, the chooks are running wild. Time to get the estate in order for the summer invasion.

surfed bluewater wedges by myself every day for two weeks. And not a Brazilian or tinpot dictator or some cnut attempting exclusive access in sight. did see a few SUPS though. I think it's time we strung up Tom Carroll, Gerry Lopez and laird Hamilton and neutered them publicly for bedevilling the su...

I don't really pay attention to any forecasts, I do my own.

What did they say? Blind freddy could see that front and consequent Tasman low was gunna produce.

that's what they all say.

Honestly honey I wasn't trying to find it. We just stumbled in looking for a hamburger.

they've got to be good for something.

Looks like fun,

what are the rub and tug joints like?

Free as a bird etc

After all there's always a payment of some kind. Probably something guys like Warren Cornish know by instinct.

Knew. He's dead.

Cornish, yep he made bank on the McTavish deal, drove a brand new Merc 4WD, got into tow surfing. Towed the July 2001 swell at perfect 15ft Tallows, was instrumental in getting tow surfing banned from Lennox Point because of insufficient regard for paddling surfers; but through that process retained...

going to the Old Dart in winter to get a root canal....now that sounds like good times.

*necks oxy, slugs xxxx gold and ties tooth to 50lb braid*

I expect that is what will happen Braithy, because I sure haven't got the loose change for a root canal.

only one molar left back there though. Need to go to Thailand and get some dental work done.

correct.
