Yeah well I've had one in my quiver for at least ten years. Long before the hipsters got hold of them and gave them a cool name.

About time the mini mal got a PR facelift anyway. They can be highly versatile and fun as fûck

In the blustery conditions I still managed to bag loads of waves. On a 6'2 shorty I'd have been lucky to scratch into a single wave. And a full length longboard would've had too much rail line, limiting the turns. It was a MINI MAL session through and through

Autumn! Finally got a chance for a weekday pre work surf today. Feels odd putting a steamer on in March.

Manly stretch, peaks galore, stiff offshore.

Cold wind, dawn. In the middle ground between warm water but coldish air and wind.

I got out of my wet one, put on a dry one and did a modern dance routine in the car park and then drove home in it.

Have a 1 mil long sleeve vest but didn't really cut it a 6.45am when the sun wasn't out with 15 knots of south west wind. A few hours later, it would have been fine.

Should invest in a springie but I'm usually either hoarders and long vest or 3/2.

Mid-Narrabeen. Some very tasty wedges amongst the usual shutdowns. Don't tell anyone.

"brown and cold," is how our el rancho described our surf this morning.

Heaps of fun in the water. Lots of waves. Great water temp too.
