Took my son to warehouse 11 in Artarmon this morning. Really impressive setup. Doesn’t appear kids skate anymore, my son was the only skater, probs 30 kids on scooters.

I remember seeing Abbott out there one Monday morning, was a public holiday after the NRL GF. Swell was fairly solid, he was riding this hideous blue tiedie/ swirl painted minimal/funboard. He was sitting at Suck Rock and paddled into one without looking at the guy coming down the line. Didnt listen...

It's fun when it's not crowded. The problem is the guys who sit at suck rock an drop in leaving you caught inside.

Fairy bower and winki. Shoulder high to overhead. Pretty fun. Not too many out. Probs the fourth time I’ve ever surfed it.

Water quality?

I looked around this morning and a few places looked like a Cholera infection was imminent.

Hi-perf singles. Polfer Hull Designs. Dude clearly rips but it looks so far removed from single fin lines that I can’t relate it to single fin surfing at all. Moreover it’s thruster lines but looser and tighter in the pocket which is impressive. https://youtu.be/q8xDiRABlmE http://phdsurf.com/about...

Same as BA, checked at dawn though, didn’t appear rideable. Guess it came up a bit.

Got the 6'6". Been out of the water for 4 months with my shoulder, was looking for something predictable with volume to ease back into it.

Got this off the gumtree today

Never ridden a single concave so interested in the ride report.

I drank 15-20 beers a day, plus rum, plus joints, plus Gudam gurangs and surfed 6ft+ Cloudbreak every day for 4-6hrs for 2 weeks.

pretty sure I can handle a moderate intake of bintangs.

No argument re long range swell but to say it doesn’t break at 8ft is complete twaddle.

How big is 8 foot in your terms?

it's a couple of germans making shitt up, I'm sure of it.

It's an elaborate troll by Iggs.

Like convincing everyone he moved to Lakemba.

I just have one request.


I would like Crabmeat to pray for me.

Well, one more.

Sunstroke to raise my children.

On a scale of 1 to truly fcuked, where do you see your next few days?

Wtf?

Drailed, attached to Steve's anus like a suckermouth catfish, would have to be a favourite.

Don't knock it till you tried it AJ

Tomatoes- rinsed or unrinsed?

Favourite chutney?

So who tipped you off Sean? You don’t seem to have been round here for a while and suddenly you turn up.

Only fair though that he gets to have his say.

Fair isn’t the issue Trev. Previous post to today was 2012, like BA, I wonder why he chose to visit RS today.

I think the observations ive made about AI and the surf media seem fair enough but id expect you have a different view. From the feedback i got a lot of people were happy to see those issues ventilated.

Any questions posed by any surf journalists on Bruce’s no show to the Maldives?
