Re: Snowdonia Wavegarden

If and when evidence of the two metre wave is forthcoming I might be tempted to go and have a look if I find myself in the area (in itself pretty unlikely but not impossible). A wifebeater in M sound OK steve? Assuming I can succesfully battle my way through the throngs of surf heroes stocking up on...

Re: Ask Carroll

How much of you, by the end, wanted to kill your brother for paddling so fucken slowly? Did you find yourself at any point clenching and unclenching your fists and saying in a squeaky voice "Well maybe this time we could try to go a little bit faster and a tiny bit longer"?

Re: Ask Carroll

I'll look into flights and let you know. Just to give you a heads up though, I couldn't decide between the pancho thruster set that I already owned and the plastic biolos set that came with the board so I've got a mix of both sets filling all five boxes. I call it a quster and I'll expect you to do ...

Yeah I know, and it wouldn't be the worst option in the world. But we are NOT going to be the weekend warrior twins and that's the end of it

Re: Ask Carroll

Nick, Can I ask you a board question? It's for a friend (no really, it is). Anyway, said friend has been surfing for a while, probably 20 years plus, but still doesn't really have much of a grasp of anything beyond the basics. When things go absolutely perfectly I suppose he can go along a wave and ...

Re: Ask Carroll

Nick, who's paying for Kelly Slater to do the tour now that he doesn't have a headline sponsor? Is he self-funding or is the WSL picking up the tab?

Re: Ask Carroll

rmb, it's a little unkind of you to assume that just because Nick's getting on a bit he's automatically an expert on postural aids and has a raft of musculo-skeletal practitioners on speed dial

for his age he's actually pretty sprightly, you know

Re: Ask Carroll

Nick, on that point (ignore my other stupid questions) do you think that proprioception is key? The "ability to sense movement within joints and joint position…to know where our limbs are in space without having to look"? I suspect that really good surfers don't have that 'Oh my God' moment when the...
