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.

No Brock Little definitely died today. He had cancer and was literally a walking skeleton.

He was too young. Makes it all the more tragic.

I like this bloke and his trick surfing dogs.
OK, he's on a SUP, but this clip does tend to contradict the idea that surfing is hard.

Anyone ridden a tomo v4? I'm curious. Look like they'd go insane.

Karlos has got one I think. My board (lost weekend warrior) is similar and sparked that social media spat a couple of years ago between Tomo and Biolos. I love it; not sure how close it is to the V4 though

Yeah the outline looks very similar (too similar for someone not have copied the other), but the tomo's got more herbs and spice re: bottom contours and funky channels etc it seems ?

Of all boards I'd be prepared to slap a grand down on, the 6'2 v4 is looking pretty tempting. I might start turning up the dial on gumtree trolling.

How do you know that it is Clovelly?

There are no references on youtube to the location that i could see. Clovelly btw is a steep and very pretty little sheltered fishing village - went there years ago. No surf.

He didnt, a mate of mine did though. Grew up about 30 mins away. Rare event - like 2-4 times a year.
