Bondi….only two runs through to get a park. Comp on down south end. Crowded and bigger ones were shutting down. Got a good right at the start then a lot that either close out or died out on the inside. Finished with a good hollow left that reformed right across the Shorey. Pretty happy considering. ...

He’s trying to work on it.

Bondi. Three circuits to get a park but as usual in those conditions the surf wasn’t that crowded. Nice little bank and nabbed a few.

Medina was a bit pissed off with the waves earlier

Nice twin

Saw some old footage of the 81 Bells Comp where Simon introduced the thruster on YouTube. It’s big and pretty sectiony but it only looks like Simon and Ian Cairns are surfing the waves in a manner that people would expect these days. Everyone else is just trying to stretch as far as they can down th...

I hope Pinnie didn’t go down as well.

What happened Pinnie?

Insert abuse about what type of retard Mong would go and surf largish Nth Bra in a southerly swell with onshore winds.

Fcuk. Wasn’t going to go for a surf since it’s a bit onshore. Thought WTF and took the foamy out in the corner. Noticed a few bluebottles on the shore. Paddled out and saw more. Learner near me got one wrapped around his wrist. Then I caught a wave and got wrapped around my ankle. Haven’t been stung...

O’Leary……oh really.

Cracker of a day. My favorite time of year.

Funny the road to Hat Head is bitumen but nowhere near as crowded. They also installed some dips on the backroad that aren’t all well signposted and would do serious damage if you took them at speed.

Road out to Plomer is a classic for corrugated road surfaces. That road gets flogged.

82 I had quit my job button dyeing in Sydney and come home to dump my gear before going to Sri Lanka. I had an MP board that had sat on the upper balcony in Surry Hills for 18 months with hardly any use. Single fin round tail with the fin hanging over the tail. It was a popular thing for barrel ridi...

Dude…if you had to drive from Kirra to Greenmount you’d be wasting petrol. You can literally be sitting on the groin and looking straight at it. It’s a kilometre away. Much more consistent than Kirra. The fact that it’s now potentially one wave from Snapper to the start of Kirra tells you how close ...

How can you be there and not know about Snapper and Greenmount? Back in the day Greenmount would still occasionally break better than Kirra. Similar to footage today if there was good sand. Snapper used to end at Little Marley. Not many people took off in front of the rocks out the end in those days...

After the big groin was added there was a gutter right along the point. No waves broke. Then a big left peaky bank appeared way out level with where the second groin was later built. They held the Queensland Titles there one year. MP was going straight down on his little MOTE square tail and going s...
