Re: half men need not apply

Think I posted last year about the guy on one at a well known Coal Coast Point Break with a handy boat ramp. Prick was well out of everyone's way but he was on a wave then back out and on one again before you could paddle out. Bloody annoying.......but kind of impressive too. He could ride it pretty...

Re: Where did you surf today ?

That's like when I was waving at Nick when he came up on TV at Bells. No response whatsoever. Went down for a beer at Bondi this Arvo. I counted 160 odd guys out and saw three major collisions including a semi competent mal rider doing a nose ride and then clocking a kid in the head who was paddling...

Yes it would be a bit too much of a Clark Kent scenario.
Silly old Cnut turns into Bwana Dick.

Re: First OS surf trip.

So Matticus try to get the Fock away from any area where there are a lot of Aussies and explore the place. Go west, east inland but not to the main areas. It will really improve everything.

Re: half men need not apply

Any one here tried SUP yoga before? There's a woman who advertises around the eastern suburbs. I would be impressed if she did some while taking the drop at Tama on a big day but I haven't seen her do that yet. Oh yes. I believe I have posted some pics or a link to an article in the past. So have y...

Re: Ask Carroll

Well I don't know if I'm flattered by being mistaken for Crispin but he's definitely getting more action than me. unless getting your beard stuck in the wax of your surfboard counts.

I get the impression I may have missed Crispins deleted post.

Re: half men need not apply

is laird the alter-ego of george greenough? Probably the antithesis of George. I recall at one stage a SUP riders organisaton in Au were trying to harden up their flaccid image by calling themselves "The league of Watermen" I assume the idea sank under an avalanche of ridicule. :D :D :A bit like th...

Re: Ask Carroll

The bit I hate is when you get so involved you start pushing down on your board with your chin.
Seriously silly with a beard.

Re: Sunny Coast

There is a big swell magnet up there called "where Trev surfs". You just follow Trev around and you can be sure of getting the best surf.

The other swell magnet " where fong surfs" has recently move a bit south
And you may need to use a ferry to get to it.

Re: Surfing in Hawaii

Well obviously there's not much point in travelling if you go and surf anonymous beach breaks when your down the road from world famous waves. They are world famous for a reason. It's like : Jeffries Bay? Nah surfed the beach break up the road from the hotel. GoldCoast? Mermaid Beach was a bit of a ...

Re: Where did you surf today ?

As I mentioned yesterday there were over 150 surfers out at Bondi yesterday afternoon at about 4pm. That's excluding soft boarders up the nth end and there looked to be at least 20 of them. Another 4 were going out where we were. Went out and caught about 4 or 5 waves before it got so gloomy I could...

Re: Ask Carroll

Time to resurrect the ask fong thread.

I am afraid the Realsurf part of pretending to live near the beach is something you need to work on AJ.
