Re: Where did you surf today ?
Eastern Suburbs secret spot. Amazing how many people don't seem to work.

Re: Ask Carroll
You have a wide range of interests braithy. I think this dovetails nicely with surfing in a way that Shearer with his surfing/fishing coupling can only dream of.

Re: Ask Carroll
Since I go up and down about 4 to 5 flights of stairs between 5 and 8 times a day I've taken to running up half the time. Lately I've started running down with my legs further apart. This seems to bite more.
Make sure you drink enough fluids to encourage pooing.

Re: Help me choose a board
Takes longer to turn then unless you do a pivot?Hatchnam wrote:Pintails feel like they cover more ground throughout their turns using a longer total rail line, though pivot very tight and acute on the spot between rail to rail transfers.

Re: Help me choose a board
Dick Harvey talks about planing speed and compression speed on his site. Makes sense to me. Still down to rails and rocker. Re: pintails not turning well. If you wanted to make a generalisation a pintail is more about hold than turning. Generally a wider rail has to turn easier. Feel free to tell me...

Re: Ask Carroll
A later MP?
Actually a mate came over on Sunday who is of a similar build to that. Lives in Cowra these days. Fantasies about getting back into surfing......but not on a mal. He'd need an SUP to float him.

Re: Ask Carroll
Can we take along some surf shop workers and make them watch the poor shmucks they sold their inappropriate boards to try to surf them in some Indo reef breaks?
Oh, that doesn't really work for you does it........here your money back.

This movie could be a goer......although you will probably have to swap it to Bondi with the Bondi Hypster Guys as MP and Owl.......with a car chase through the Bondi Junction Mall. Actually if you did do a road trip movie about MP and Owl you could have the Deathrace 1000 Race to Brisbane as the fi...

Re: Single Fins
Yep. I tried selling a board on Gumtree a few years ago.....no luck. My son put it on E Bay and we sold it for about $150 more than I was offering it for on Gumtree.
Got one board for under $300 in fairly good condition that would have had $1000 in front of that if it was new.

Re: The winter of our content.
Was thinking about those.....possibly exaggerated.......numbers. If we take them as real and you say everyone is on a surfboard that costs between say $300 and $800........and a wetsuit that costs conservatively say $200. You've got an industry right there.
