Re: Surfing tricks video & their names

OscarNL I notice you are promoting your blog on a number of surf forums and the material you use is other peoples' videos.
I just hope you have approached them in regard to copyright as some of the stuff you use is a little more than just YouTube public domain stuff.

Re: Camper Trailers

Just using the trailer to carry all the stuff in as stated!
All the tent, gear and trailer cover and frame was built for my son's visit from Austria and only used once, cleaned and stored dry and well since!

Re: Camper Trailers

Classified as a trailer with which you can camp. I've got a 6X4 trailer with top canvas Tonneau cover on frame registered to Sept 2015 with an 10 plus OzTrail tent ( why it is called that can sleep 8 according to brochure) and butane cartridge stove + air mattresses (1X double two single billies), f...

Re: Get this!

The whole Fongss thing is the RS version of a Wagnerian Soap Opera overlaid with Gaugainian Polynesian fantasies. Worth inclusion for the tragicomedic values alone. Happy to see Roy's ideas and the arguments they engender, after all, isn't that exactly what a forum is about! I guess wooden board mak...

Re: Resort Latitude Zero

Indo Dreaming, blue7floyd, is an absolute advertroller unfortunately I can't access his IP address but I would bet good money that he/she is an absolute cube monkey in some semi third world country without a clue on what they are talking about.

Re: Roys bank balance

I'm really happy with mine, and the Bonzers fins with the future base for one of my other boards. The BLEF fin is fairly squirrely if you have it too far forward in the box but if you pull it back about 2" from where you would have a 9" cutaway, it reall gives a nice point around which to pivot. Pad...

Re: Rocking the BLEF

Otway has a set, A BLEF and I ordered the Bonzer set up for the futures set up. I have been seriously impressed by the Bonzers in FCS set as 2+1 in an Outer Island board working with Mitchell Rae's single to double concaves with a vee section and an internal extra concave. Was able to take on well o...

Re: Spirit of Akasha - Tribute to 40 years of MOTE

I bought the CD in the discount bin at the local music shop. Everything seems to be derivative of something else i may have heard subliminally! No track on the disc make me sit up and pay attention and go, YES! Lyrics seem mumbled and muddy even when I have my superduper hearing aids in. With the I ...

Re: Surfing in Hawaii

Otoway it's not about bragging rights at all, hence why I'm asking if it's "worth it". I'm only thinking about it because I'm right there and won't be back there for many years. I may only get one chance to ever surf it. That's why I excluded you from the masses fluffy I would certainly look and if...

Re: Surfing in Hawaii

Also a quick question on pipeline. Pretty much just want to tick the box. The box ticking thing, how many "name" spots get an influx of tourists who want to ad to their dubious credentials by saying, I must be good I surfed "..........", ain't I cool. Maybe that doesn't apply to you Fluffy, but it ...
