SEE BEN SKINNER SURF THE CRIBBER!!

Post by MyCornwalltv » Sun Jan 17, 2010 4:51 am

The Cribber is heralded as the UK's big wave surf spot. It renowned for its volatility, ferocity and power, only tackled by experienced surfers, this dangerous reef can produce wave faces of 30ft plus!!
Well, MyCornwall.tv saw the Cribber ‘going off' the other day, so we took one of the UK’s most talented and accomplished surfers, Ben Skinner and dropped him into the waves to see what he could do. Click the link below to see our exclusive personal insight into his experience in tow surfing the infamous Cribber.....

Hello MyCornwallTV....are you a human being or some kind of pomgolian speaking artificial intelligence that has been randomly programmed to spam forums?

Why not introduce yourself before you subject us to ghey tow-ins?
It's only polite after all.

Thats respectably large, I'spose...

I enjoyed a quick tour of that coast in 2001, but did'nt get it that big... Always the way hey!

Loved the wee English villages. Porthleven, Penzance, St. Agnes, Newquay, Bude...Could almost picture the clanking cages they used to hang pirates in to rot, called a "gibbet." Hey thats a scarier name, the "Gibbet" instead of "Cribber"...

Like Steve says, don't be afraid to say who you are...it goes down better.

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.

That's my local, Speedneedle.

There's a slabby right just a bit further inside this which is pretty good on occasion..

If you're ever over this way again, then drop me a PM. Bring a few boards :mrgreen:
