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.

Why has huie forsaken us :cry:


We need a sacrifice :idea: :evil:


Suggestions :?: :arrow:

Rudd & Abbott.

We plant Abbott out in the middle of the Tasman Sea halfway between Australia & New Zealand.

We move Rudd up & down the east coast on a daily basis.

It will be exactly like a high pressure system cradling a low pressure system creating non stop swell & all day offshores for-ever.

Victoria can have Hockey & Bowen arguing about whether there will be barrels in the next financial year or the year after :D
What's the difference between Elizabeth Warren & Kamala Harris?

Don't get me started on the old kunz on mals and SUPs that come out of the woodwork in these conditions. What is it with mal riders who can barely surf yet insist on surfing a crowded line up without a leggie? Saw a poor young girl injured at the weekend by a stray log from one of these low life kunz who did not even have the decency to see if she was ok.
No leggie for your mal. No surfing. You dangerous kunz.

I had a great surf today. Probably due to "reversal of neuro-adaptation", or in other words, withdrawal is over and I can enjoy normal doses of wave joy again....

The best part is that the other junkies still seem to be stuck in cold turkey mode, so I was the only relapsing :D surfer out in those super-glassy, knee-high after work peelers at Main Beach today. A pack of clubbies moved through once, apart from that it was undisturbed sunset beauty. Not even a SUP in sight! :B :B :B

this flat spell is too much, its gone on for weeks, :( at Manly this week there was one desperate bloke on a mal 10 feet from the sand. I wanted to go and tell him..."Its O.K.., the waves will come back one day, not today , but soon..."

And yesterday there was no one, not a soul in the water.....
i think theyve all gone to the race track.

I rediscovered skateboarding a couple of years back. Ramps & bowls, not street stuff, & it's a fantastic substitute when there's no waves. Keeps the surf skills (what little there are) from getting rusty as well.

I jump on the motorbike and find myself surfing the road, cutting in corners, ollies off raised sections, especially if theres any steep sections or overhanging branches to pull into the tube.

its an illness , I know... :oops:

Hopefully that doesn't bring on any decent swell.

I'm surfed out from yesterdays efforts, although it was supposedly flat... :-)(

Three hours at Seaworld, then 2 hours at Snapper Rocks. Loads of waves!

I managed to catch a half-dozen waves at the take-off point at Snapper Rocks, because there were only a hand full of other surfers there. Very nice opportunity to practice this sort of intimidating take-off without 20 red-hot grommets getting in the way.

Finally got a wave yesterday, its funny how appreciative you can be about tiny waves. I'm not ashamed and I'll do it again today.

I walked to Dy from Manly along the coast and up the beaches. Got the feet wet at Curly. Felt good just to get wet, Ive seen bigger waves in Cannes on the Med, Still didnt stop a few sunday warriors trying to learn to surf - I think more in their imagination than physically evident.
All the clambering over rocks good for core strength. Man, 8) that stretch must be one of Sydneys best kept secrets
