Uncanny as it resembles the board I was using yesterday. Only it had belly channels and fin-box for the centre fin.

wooo bumpy slabby fun awkward play surf again today, 3-5' and semi clean for a while before the SE showed up

testing two boards, 5'10" and 5'11", same outlines and tails, quite different foils and bottom shapes, fascinating to try to pick apart the effects. I have another one to test, the one I thought of writing about on Beachgrit, nothing like these two. I feel a little sceptical of it for various reasons but I wanna give it a serious opportunity so will have to wait, maybe for approaching ESE swell

pretty soft down the coast. No oompa in the swell at all. 2 foot windswell with some wonk in it but relatively clean with light s/w wind.

Did you activate your posterior chain and glutes?

I had fun. Only 5 guys out, big sweep but took the big wide paddle back out. Seemed to luck in to a set every time. Took 4 and I was done.

Mid-south maroubra. Overhead and fairly punchy on the inside bank. Backwashing pitchy take off with some fun peaks on offer. Surfed the 80’s thruster.

Watched some nervous looking dweeb on a SUP try and edge into a set, then get pelted straight into the trough and get an absolute hiding.

Who says there’s no interventionist god.

SUP on a packed Sunday morning with over head waves. Douche.

Five surfs in the last six days. Three different spots.
All fun.
But today I lucked into two consecutive "from out the back, all the way to the beach" waves which raised the enjoyment factor to the next level.
After the second, my 70 year old shoulders cried "enough".

I still don't buy the "official" narrative about 9/11. Oh sure, it happened, fcuk yeah. But who and why and how I'm, not convinced it was what we've been told.
