RealSurf Surfers' Forum

I preferred Parkos 10........but Kelly's wave yesterday was freakier I reckon.

Ditto.

Maybe. Slater's been hanging around the Ox in between events surfing his brains out and apparently spending lots of time free surfing CB. Don't think the problem comes down to physical training, he's obviously still in good shape and capable of producing sublime surfing.Witness his Rnd 2 and 3 gigs...

I'd call it a lifestyle choice.

Nice board Hatchy. Quality glass job by the looks too. How long is it,6'?
That's a pretty good price for one of those.

The top bun, plunging neckline t or singlet, skin tight jeans or actual tights look is very close to female clothing visually. With the full bushranger it turns more medieval minstrel. Still pretty fem though.

I wear disposable gloves.......then always manage to grab something after I take them off.....and use acetone to get it off.

How fast was he going?
That was insane.

Diamonds always seem to look right on bonzers.

Yeah, I found his stuff very understandable. I didn't realise Kelly was riding pintails. I thought they were just round tails or rounded pins. Have to check it out.
Re: Scorpions etc: those style boards are basically cutdown Mals with a pintail bunged on the end so they don't spin out.

He had no idea how to turn that board.
Equipment confusion will be brutally exposed if/when he runs up against a confident goofyfoot.

Yes, definitely after watching his 9:97 ride.

Well, seemed to make up for it in Round 2.

Is that where he's riding a round nosed minimal shaped thing that looks like it's pushing water?

Eastern Suburbs secret spot. Amazing how many people don't seem to work.

Yes The Beanpole Heart & Soul Model will be soul arching into the shore break in no time.

Ctd, that is the lamest idea I have ever heard of. Should make a squillion.

You have a wide range of interests braithy. I think this dovetails nicely with surfing in a way that Shearer with his surfing/fishing coupling can only dream of.
