IMHO those HPR's are great boards. Before I got my Fatbat off Mark, that was my daily driver. Best thruster I've ever owned, great paddler but still loose.

You've done well...Good score I reckon!

Good call Ringy

I dont mind him. Great athlete and works hard at what he does. The stuff people hate him for is about getting arses on seats. And it works. ^^ Agreed... Like many have said, his self-marketing hype wouldn't be considered too controversial if he was in the states FWIW, I used to play a little basket...

The Bendalong stretch is pretty nice.
It's hard to go wrong on the South Coast in June.

There are quite a few free, online options

Like what your trying Butts and I reckon you'll soon nail some A+ shots with the slower shutter speed. I can appreciate how it's a technically difficult shot to capture perfectly. Those in-the-barrel shots are extremely hard to capture perfectly without a flash (there's an idea :idea: ) but geez you...

For the last few years I've used the 'key holder' on my leggie. Never had a problem with it.

Anyone else use it?

there's a decent right point not far from where i live, and i went surfing there yesterday and today. conditions were excellent on both occasions, and surfers were getting barrelled left and right. Al, I'm pretty sure I skipped many lectures at uni to surf that 'decent right point' that you're talk...

Hey Mark, if you are really keen you should get out to the Andaman/Nicobar Islands. I know that the reefs were affected after the Tsunami but with a little research I reckon you will still find waves that will be a LOT better than the best day at the best break in Thailand. Getting there won't be as...

and wheres rightbrain :?: :P :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Where's RB+ I hear you say? RB+ is 'mindsurfing' via the Coastalwatch and Swellnet cams from China. :roll: RB+ has started skateboarding again to get his 'carving' fix (google "SMP SKatepark"). :shock: RB+ will probably go snowboarding at this in...

Thanks for posting pics Trev... are they taken from your way, Marcus's way or Fong/Tiger land?

I read a report saying that the banks at Noosa are the best in at least 10 years. Any truth to that? I'm getting homesick now

first point noosa surfed it more in the last two days than whole year :shock: and yeah.....it frocking blowing my mind 8) it's the perfect ride :shock: and ric....the quads going bloody sensational... i love it on my backhand SPEED :arrow: TRIM :arrow: TURNS i owe ya a beer make do for now with a :...

I think I finally understand the true meaning of the work 'frothing'...
the Byron, Snapper and Noosa cams look REALLY good

I hope you all get some good ones this weekend

Can't get all the info on here but this is the next week on the Sunny Coast. 4 columns to a day. Swell direction E and SE. Wind direction SE. Swell Period 8.2 to 10.3 :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) ...

That was my first surf there and it will be my last. I reckon you can just take the national park and shove it up your kyper pass as far as im concerned, will stick to my local and will get more waves and enjoy myself rather than put up with the bullshit that goes on at noosa :evil: Hey Digger, sor...

Good read Nick and thanks for sharing your insights with the rest of the RSers. I have often read that Parko has often been scored 'down' because he's just too stylish for his own good. This has always confused me. You have also raised the point in this paragraph: - In the past, some doubts have bee...

Thanks for the reports lads, I almost feel like I'm there... well, not really

Although if anyone else has pics, feel free to post them up

Hahahaha, good call Marcus

And Mark, yep you're right... Kelly did go on to win number 8 that year. I reckon this year is going to be a cracker on the WCT
