Re: Where did you surf today ?

I've been using an O'Neill rashy with 0.5mm wettie panels on the torso. Perfect for the windy mornings I've been using a thermal rashie I bought at Forster for forty bucks a year or so ago. Bloody terrific. Arms are starting to get a little stretched from all the use though. Will get another when i...

Re: Where did you surf today ?

I'm really getting sick of suddenly being surrounded by a pack of Irish Backpackers on every imaginable craft from ancient Indo guns to softies. You hope they will be so preoccupied with their bullshitting that they fail to notice the waves but they are quite capable of taking off together on anythi...

Had fun yesterday but too many kooks today. Great conditions though. Some good lefts in the corner for the hasslers.

Re: Where did you surf today ?

Guess I'll give it a crack after I digest breakfast. Looks like the last sunny day before howling winds, more rain and a drop in temp.

Re: Where did you surf today ?

Went for a paddle. Decided to give a different board a run. Wouldn't really of mattered either way. Got a couple of non close outs before the sheer number of punters sent me in. Ready for a run.

Re: Bells

I guess thats one of the fundamental problems though. Joe I guess works if they are trying to crack the mass market. But personally the commentators to me that have filled the gaps were Jake the Snake as he actually told it as it was and his classic taking side bets with his offsider The recently R...

Re: new project

Ummm, let's see. A Saturday in the holidays? Going to drive back to Forster that day? Probably sink a couple with the rels that night? From memory a couple of beers with a BBQ. Of course the fact that we had just had a solid week of waves and I knew that Saturday was going to possibly be the day cou...

Re: new project

How big was it. Crescent never handles a big swell, hence the sweep. It was only overhead, not getting into any other nonsense about that. Just lots of water moving and lots of waves in the sets. Nothing I would usually blink at but if you aren't aware of your current limitations it's easy to hop i...

Re: new project

Nice little spray. Reminds me of how relative it all is. Years ago due to work, kids, etc I was half as fit as I am now and a good 10 or more kilos heavier. We rocked up to Crescent Head and it was a good solid swell belting in. Kind of drained all the water right away from the takeoff spot so every...
