The 2000kj was referring to a meat pie and milkshake after a strenuous surf in knee high tiddlers.

To tell the truth eggs are one thing I avoid buying when I’m grocery shopping. So you may say I’m an intermittent egg buyer who usually lets someone else buy them.

What’s your beef with bonzers Cranked?
There was a clip of Taylor Steele about a year ago on a bonzer, everyone thought it was great but all I saw was someone forcing a board that didn't want to turn in a tight arc into turning, it was jerky and disjointed, no flow . It was like a dancing bear, its not that the bear dances well, its that it dances at all. Machado is flowing, he's not forcing the board into doing something it doesn't want to do.
Taylor may have been hardwired to try and surf it like a thruster.

Surf forecast said 2000kj three? Days ago.

That was their forecast.

It was out by a factor of six compared to the reality on the day.

Magic Seaweed wasnt much better.

Three days out is pretty close to the event to get it so badly wrong.

Not so Godsave?
Surf Forecast is definitely pretty bad at predicting big swells in Bali

Honestly you dingbats who gives a fcuk about these tardeific Adult Learner forecast sites and their incomprehensible gibberish

Like, fcuk, just get up and go.

I had so much fun this weekend! Connected some real turns at speed. Surfed with my buddies. Mucked around with different boards. Ignored various responsibilities. Did a half air over a ledge and didn’t pull it. Nearly ran over a big dolphin.

I see much more potential in this next low.....this one looks a lot more like the beast Carroll presupposed the last one would be.

it sits in a much better spot in the Tasman and even though the fetch isn't primo....it's still far, far better that the last one.

longer term progs another low following that one......truly extraordinary for late Nov/early Dec.
