Re: Just general surfing stuff
Believe it or not my father in law is coming out for his 70th birthday and we've booked the light house cottage at Cape Byron for the weekend.
And the surf festival is on....bummer, but I think I'll go and harass Eden Saul for Batoes.

Steve, it would really fkuk his Schitt up if you walked up and loudly asked about the fin situation in front of all his douche bag followers. Though they might get nasty and force you to drink a soy chai latte so be carefulsteve shearer wrote:Believe it or not my father in law is coming out for his 70th birthday and we've booked the light house cottage at Cape Byron for the weekend.

Re: Just general surfing stuff
Speaking of sharks, hows the little rush from the white shark here as a surfer paddles for a wave. Tiny little 2ft wave at North Wall in 3-4ft of water.

So do those drones have any sirens on them or air horns or anything or are they just there to capture the moment you get chomped.

Re: Just general surfing stuff
wonder what the outcry would/will be when a DPI drone captures an attack.

they would never publish such a thing, which makes you wonder if they already have caught an attack on camera.

Re: Just general surfing stuff
I was surprised they published that little white rushing a surfer.
that clearly shows the modus operandi of a shallow water attack.

yeah it sure looks like, for the shark it's a real spare of the moment decision. they kinda look like a dog addicted to playing ball. they see something move and come after it.
some follow through and take a bite, and some don't.
thinking of all the attacks I've read about, most of them are in that moment of moving, lying down on the board. I can't recall too many where they were just chilling sitting on their board and then attacked.
