You’re waving your arms around like a traffic controller, you do the wrong turn in the wrong part of the wave and you spack it up. The wave’s OK. It looks quite fun

To tell the truth eggs are one thing I avoid buying when I’m grocery shopping. So you may say I’m an intermittent egg buyer who usually lets someone else buy them.

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.

To be fair, Hatchnam's arms are three feet long Iggy scale. It's all he can do to keep them from dragging in the water like two simian sea anchors.

The right turn would’ve been “blowing the tail”, right after a big poo stanced frantic bunch of tick tacking. Hey god save.

It was a burger of a wave that went from bowl to wonk in the blink of an eye

I'm watching surfing from yesterday. Strider Raspberry Wasilewski just twice mentioned how people have more cubic litres in their boards. Can anyone explain cubic litres to me and how they might improve my surfing?
Are these cubic litres higher performance than regular litres?

Bondi’s got nothing much going for it. It’s a product of the worst absence of environmental planning in history. It’s garlanded by sewerage outlets to the north and to the south, and every time the rain tries to wash the beach into the sea the Council get their bulldozer out and fixes things up. If they left it alone, the bank in the south corner would probably be much better, much more.

Yes, it used to stink. Not a bad little piece. I only saw Brad Mayes surf there once. He was pretty impressive.
