Re: The Duke dethroned as our surfing history is rewritten
Probably because I spend my working life report doing projects and writing up the results in govspeak. Like these last months I been flat out jumping between both worlds and often forget when I need to adjust the delivery to suit circumstances. Now I know :idea: I don't dis(parage) surfers or anyon...

Re: The Duke dethroned as our surfing history is rewritten
Just can't see why you want to hijack it with side issues. Gee I reckon purri's arguments albeit ever so slightly left of centre as they may be, are no less relevant than jm55's Dino, I'm obviously missing the point. I don't see how they relate to who was the first surfer in Australia. I don't disa...

You can't count people swimming ashore from shipwrecks or canoes in the surf. "Surfing" at least to me and I guess most on here is an enjoyable past-time as distinct from a...

Re: The Duke dethroned as our surfing history is rewritten
Re surfresearch post and quoting loosely. Local surf activities: FFS sake, the tide came in between BCE 14K and 6.5K in a series of up and downs. Thus the relevance of local activities are only documented if culturally relevant to major social observances. Petroglyphs record culturally significant ...

Re: Where did you surf today ?
Yep. I had nice clean if a bit full waves. Got a decent barrell despite it being full.
Was all set to go back at low tide but got called to Brissie to help out with some work.
Worth the money, though.
