I've been thinking about getting into beach yoga. But then again, maybe not.

That wave the women are surfing in Portugal is utter crap. Straight, rippy and junky every time I've watched it. Like a really bad version of Curly. Commentators even having a tough time talking it up.

I haven't seen it but 'really bad version of curly'? Didn't think that was possible.

sorry but not sorry but this surfing looks like utter shit and it's boring.

the same turn over and over again and everything in between looks wrenched, underpowered, flappy and fking hideous.

It looks like he left the handbrake on or something, the wave is OK but he's sluggish

The wave is not drawing, its just crumbling. GSTQ would own it on his Biscuit.

Saw a guy about a week ago down the beach spinning his arms around like a windmill before going for a surf. I mean really spinning fast mimicking paddling. Now Ive seen some kooky warm up exercises over the years but since when do you need to warm up to paddle?

Portugal is on and looking horrible. Solid closeouts on a dead low tide with cross-shore winds. Halfway through first heat and noone has made a wave.

Day 1 of the big wave challenge at Peahi was on today. Looked pretty bloody big. Replay on Fox tonight at 7.30.

what a ghastly tragedy for the Sport, the Australian Open is no more.

Destination NSW withdrew their funding, following Hurley out the door. Then so did the council.
