Re: " but I still love the old world"....Where to from here?
Look at the price of real estate my good man. aw shit, not this again... Yep, and the price is constant and ongoing and chips away at your self-respect like a drip of water on coffee rock, gradually, slowly, eating it away. that made me chuckle. Olds knows why, and it's nothing to do with Skipper. ...

How's the skinny fish go backhand?
And how's the volume compare to the Wombat?

Re: " but I still love the old world"....Where to from here?
Good to hear. And am I to understand that you'll be back to Chopes this year? Thats sounds harsh to democratic ears and the consciousness of an entitled middle class that believes anything worthwhile can be purchased. oh, but it can. didn't you hear there's a bloke in the Pines with a wave for sale ...

There are movements of collaborative consumption, community market gardens, digital minimalism and others that are gathering force. And citizen journalism.

Hatchy, did you just try and sell the IT drone as a soul surfer?
Well written and entertaining, but absolute bollocks.

Re: what do YOU want out a board?
Steve, I may be ensconced in the bosom of the eastern suburbs now, but I was introduced to sauterne by fibreglass boat builders, ex cops and pro crabbers in central qld. I was 12 at the time, I took whatever grog was on offer. FWIW, I can't stomach sauterne in any other context. And despite having s...

Re: what do YOU want out a board?
Gourmets (particularly those fine specimens of mullet fisherman found on the beaches of the North Coast) have been known to prepare the roe by smoking it and curing it and turning it into the delicacy known as taramasalata, which helps the long winters nights go smoothly with the aid of liberal dos...

Re: " but I still love the old world"....Where to from here?
skipper, i've flagged this topic for later consideration. For the moment I'm too sapped to drink the requisite red wine. The closest I've come to the 'soul surfer' is the old blokes I'd surf with in southern California. F There were some dole cheats living in the jungle in Sumbawa who might be truer...

Re: that wetsuit discussion...
two amazing things happened this week.
My wettie arrived from the UK in under a week, for less than half the retail price locally, and from what I can gather only about 30 bucks more than wholesale.
And I got a response from the ACCC

Re: what do YOU want out a board?
fresh mullet is passable, any more than a day old and it degrades rapidly.
The roe is best cold smoked over a couple of days. Flesh isn't bad that way either. Prick of a job tending the fire though.
The smelt tastes dreadful.
poddy mullet are great bait, i'd take gar over the big ones though.

Re: Andy Irons Dies
The public should also have a right to know that Penny Wong is gay, even though she isn't breaking any laws. It gives the public an indication on how she may vote on certain issues. I'm sure if one of her constituents was opposed to gay marriage, they would want to know the sexual orientation of th...

Re: Andy Irons Dies
Jimmy, I can only assume that your inside (or outside) knowledge of Andy's drug use meant you were firing off daily missives to the ASP management team?
Would seem like the decent thing to do, if it was such an open secret.
p.s. might be time to change your avatar...

Re: New boards... question
are you not catching the wave at all, or not getting to your feet?
it's a flat looking board, and if you're coming from a boog you're probably having your weight too far back as you paddle in, expecting the boost from your fins.

Re: what do YOU want out a board?
well, that all got a bit fairly quickly...
back on topic, sort of...
I want a board that knows what to do next.
And can find it's way out of the tube.
And is good for whitewater takeoffs
