Howling, horrid freezing wind taking the tops off it down here, managed to get a couple of fun ones but it was pretty hard work. My new Needs 4/3 didn't feel too warm, that's for sure.

My Needs L/S spring was perfect but I've realised my old Quik 3/2 chest zip (coldest wetsuit ever made) is not fit for another winter.

4-5 foot Wanda. Lot of shutdowns, as always with a straight south swell, but still some freight train walls allowing a top to bottom sprint before kicking out.

I got a wave this morning, first time in a long, long time.......from out the back to down past the hut.

A very strange feeling: burning thighs.

Glad I've been smashing the goblet squats and kettlebells.

Kettlebells are great. Good for straight legged deadlifts

good for surfing.
hip hinge, posterior chain strength = power surfing.

Great for conditioning too.

You reckon it's marketing?

I've upped my overall training volume using greasing the groove and am feeling heaps better for it.

Agree, worst wettie I've had in the last 20 years.

wow, just had a look at wetsuit prices.

600-700 for a rip curl steamer.

Insane, anyone paying that?

There's a Sideways outlet in Brookvale. Top end Body Glove wetties with a sticker price of close to $700 selling for half that.
