Re: Where did you surf today ?

Yeah. My point is dangerously crowded these school holidays.

The car park is full before dawn. 🤬

Have to get out there, pick up a few quick ride and get the hell out.

Re: Injuries Blog

What’s the water condition like after the rain? Absolutely filthy for the late. Couldn’t see my feet! He's gonna need to be careful.. Guy up here just lost the lower part of his leg after picking up an infection in dirty water surf. Infection took hold and was uncontrollable within 3 or 4 days.

Re: Where did you surf today ?

It's nice when you get an unexpected surf. Well, unpredicted anyway. Supposedly a northerly all night but I hoped it'd be offshore early and it was. Super high tide and small, short period swell so I figured the spot where we run our comps might work. Had nearly 2½ hours of "baby food" waves. Hoping...

Re: Hernias

I guess I was lucky. The first one was there for years before I asked about it. Not painful just a bulge in the groin. When the second one happened it was the same. The umbilical one was interesting though. I've had this little bubble on the side of the belly button for as long as I can remember. Th...

Re: Hernias

I had my first one done in Brisbane in about 1990. Done on a Friday. Had no discussion with the doc about going back to surfing so I just did. The following Saturday. 8 days. 😳 Pretty sure that was the timing. Next was in Sydney and he stopped me surfing for a couple of weeks. That one used the mesh...

Re: Where did you surf today ?

Nothing to do with the hands, at the right resonant frequency the car just starts drifting like on black ice. Absolutely. And the frequency varies by car, by spring and shock rates (and how worn they are). Not to mention the actual gap between each corrugation. Except of course for loofy who no dou...

Re: How is wave height measured in Australia?

*breathes out slowly from the nose* Inconsistency is the sole preserve of those of us who use ‘surfer feet’. It doesn’t need to be accurate because it’s just a ballpark, a suggestion. For the measurement ultras like you and Trev (who can forget his #sixfeetissixfeet campaign) it has to be the actua...

Re: How is wave height measured in Australia?

Can't help myself.

Calling any object which is double overhead, 4-6ft is just fucking ludicrous.
Regardless of how many people and "authorities" do it.

Re: Where did you surf today ?

Three days. Three sessions. Three different spots. And none of them my local point. Maybe tomorrow. 😀 7 hours plus. All three days were supposed to be onshore. Blowin! :wink: I reckon your life of not taking drink and drugs is paying dividends now Trev, (particularly no alcohol - massive inflammato...

Re: Where did you surf today ?

Pretty nasty but this was a bit further north at another rock break usually really crowded but it wasn't.. Maxed out around 20 at the worst. Manageable at that number. My point has been busy bus because it's spread out also manageable. Happy Valley however 🤬 I drove by The Alley last Tuesday. Fuck w...
