They say most heat escapes from your head. Assuming that losing half of it from a shark would help with that process.

‘They’ are wrong

Maybe go 4/3 instead of 3/2? n of 1, of course, but I’ve noticed that being warm in a decent 4/3 means I can take my boots off when the water gets to 13 or 14 degrees. It does feel superficially chilly but never bone deep freezing

No photographer out on the 6-10ft days?

It's fine. You've got older, your physical conditioning has fallen off a cliff and you're trying to spend your way out of a hole, ignoring the sensible side of your brain that's whispering "it's all bullshit" and gorging on the Kool Aid instead. Happens to the best of us

Yamamoto has been around, largely unremarked upon, forever. Don’t be swayed by this outbreak of cultish behaviour, BA. You’re better than that

It’s the new magnesium

…and loofy has got even fatter since he moved to Avalon. Plus ca change etc Hang on the fcuk! You’re shïtting me? Could he be anymore of an English cliché - Bondi to Avalon? He’d have way more cred if he moved from Bondage to Albion Park Rail. God Save, I see you showed respect and changed your mon...

You will notice that Beanpole has retired, aj. He has also fallen out with a number of people, some of whom have blocked him and others that are just pretending to have. I’ll leave you to make your own assumptions as to how that is playing out. daryl is still fighting the good covid fight, so if you...

Mate, you’ve been peddling that line for years. The quote from Nick Carroll outing you as a fatty is below. We all saw it, we all know you’re a disgusting fat fuck but we accept you for who you are. Ha we pulled up to a little right hander and a nearby resort boat was there. There was a bit of surf ...

Where’s your nearest non-terrible surf option, beans?

50 people died of covid this week cranked and you didn’t give a fuck. Shame on you

I’m sorry steve but aren’t you the bloke that wangs on constantly about the absolute purity of pristine wilderness? Surely shark nets are the oceanic equivalent of the Enclosure Act?

You’re not moving the debate along at all. Yours is an essentially Old Testament viewpoint, no matter how you dress it up in pretty words: “And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the ...

Are we at the personal attack stage already steve? Unlike you to concede so early

Fuck, 10 turtles and a few other big fish so a city of nearly 5million can play safely in the ocean. As if you wouldnt.

Absolutely loof. Let’s call it what it is though instead of trying to dress it up in some weird aquatic ape costume

You haven’t come close to providing a rational argument against it though. Humans don’t cohabit oceans, we use them for recreation. There is always the choice to completely avoid the apex predator in a way that a village living next to a tiger doesn’t have

If you don’t want a shark to bite you, don’t go in the water. It really is as simple as that

Being in the sea for 99% of users (probably more) is very much optional recreation. We don’t ‘share the sea’ in the way that people who live next door to land predators share territory. Indeed, many people choose never to go in the sea and their lives appear little different to ours. So the whole, i...
