NC - swimming is great, but even when I've been doing a few km a week, there are still surfing muscles I feel aren't coming into play. Swimming a few km a week - pfftt Get some flippers and do lots of butterfly kick (underwater, with a kick board or on your back) to work on your core strength - the ...

Flipping jetskiiers
speaking of flips, i saw a jetskiier do a front flip once, he was playing in the waves at pukeys reef and was generally stinking up the place when he accidentally got sucked over the falls, how i laughed. When he resurfaced, he regained his composure for a bit while lying slupmed over his loathsome ...

i totally agree with you, there's nothing wrong with being a boatie, jet skiier or having pedophilia tendencies, provided you dont practice your past-time in a manner which endangers the enjoyment/lives of other people. yeah i saved my mates life, big deal. Does that entitle me to lay claim to all t...

cars and gasoline are more expensive, but making you the butt of our jokes is free. If you can learn to laugh at your seppo heritage you'll go far (a surprising number of aussies are try hard seppos anyway) Gong uni is where its at, cheaper than sydney, close to quality waves, not as stupidly crowde...

at the risk i sounding un-Australian, i gotta agree with Rissole. No doubt Fanning is way talented, the hungriest, best prepared surfer on tour and a deserving champ, but the conditions definitely suited him and Taj.

They are comfy as and their flexibility gives you the acceleration and power that you need to catch waves. Bodyboard flippers hurt your feet, do weird things to your knees and are only real...
