Has Wayne Lynch been in Byron long? Interesting change of scene from the relative quietness of Western Vic to Byron.

For sure.

What's that single fin yellow board held by the guy with longish white hair (apologies I don't recognise who that is, probably someone famous to everyone but me)

thanks fellas, haven't seen it yet.

Most of the photos were taken by Carly Lorente, a shitt hot documentary photog and really good writer.
I took the shitty ones when Carly wasn't available.

Don't do it Roy! Stay pure and Heed the wise words of Mr. McCoy. The surf culture has devolved into something of a collective wank there. Then again, if you're into that sort of thing?

Read his latest thread, his ego has hit the stratosphere. Wants to hit "the big time"

I for one look forward to Roi mowing down half the surfing population out at The Pass.

Ego Shmego I just know what I've got and would like to see it up there, that's a good thing and there are plenty of others who are ambitious.

Anyway stop hijacking, I'm interested in Byron ( or other spots) as the winters here are starting to get tedious.
