Oh boy, lucky surfin turf isn't around any more.
Do tell , love a good story .
Well as you know these forums have little to with surfing so the real question is WTF is that sorry excuse for lawn you are standing on?
Ahhh , at the start of winter we tore down a pergola / bbq area and the only thing growing on it was weeds ( we grow them well here ) . Now that the weather is warming up the grass is starting to send out runners . Its roughly 6 meters by 3 meters . I reckon by summer the grass will cover it so no more dirt patch .
Surfin Turf would never have accepted that weak excuse. :-)(

BTW. He's still around. Just not on here.

95% of real surfers are probably still around Trev, just not on here.

I did expect perfectly manicured lawns and edges and also to see tomato plants.

That is a great spray though, Mario.

I have a dislike for mowing and snipping . Especially when you have to do it every week . We tried the whole growing veges thing ages ago but we were definitely half assed at it . We did grow some very impressive weeds though . Very proud of them .

I imagine there's quite a few Realsurfers who are good with weed.

Oh! Wait!😱

$300? Why so cheap?

I think cos the guy lives in Labrador and no one wants to travel to look at something they might not buy.
He’d had it up for a couple months at $450 then $350 and I happened to come across it just after he dropped it to $300.
I didn’t haggle at that price.

Reckon it would have been snapped up a while ago if he was in burleigh or cooly

Would the fact that it is a shortboard single fin reduce its market appeal?

It looks brand new!

It’s in almost untouched condition.
A 1980ish pipedream or freeflight channel bottom which are very similar would probably nudge $1000 in good nick.
