Well, Jack Robbo proved me wrong.
His turns still aren’t on JJs level but he stood up when it counted. He had the wave selection, heat strategy and landed his punches.

Re: Just general surfing stuff
John John.
By far the best surfer in the world.
He’d have so many more titles if the waves were consistently good like today.

His name was Ricky, he had a tapeworm He was walking down the stairs, in the dark deceiving air Before he’d finished, He’d fallen over Ol’ Ricky went a bit too far, He’d tripped on his giant calves And then his ankle blew hopes to surf were smashed in two...

Re: Where did you surf today ?
Hope you get a few Ricky.
I drove down and checked the surf about 5 times today.
Between Lennox and home.
Didn’t surf.

Re: Where did you surf today ?
I’d like to see Jai add a little more aggression through his turns.
Let out the inner Andy.
Mikey does it already.

Banger might’ve been a relative term to the adjusted scale of the day.

Re: Where did you surf today ?
Short window for lunchtime Dbah. Northerly was getting up. Rip along the wall took me straight out to the shallow bank that was the biggest pain in the arse to penetrate the last 15m. Finally out. First two waves caught behind, current dragged back to the wall and stuck again. Then got a 3 turn bang...

Re: Just general surfing stuff
These were the fins I first upgraded to from plastics. Big improvement. (When I later used them in another board that had plastics in them) Not sure the exact construction of them. I bought them new and put them in a 6’2 bushman I bought from RCJ’s quiver. Cost $99 which was a lot at the time - arou...

Re: Just general surfing stuff
Actually I tell a lie, in a mate's board we both tried fcs2 accelerator mediums in neo glass and performance core and both much preferred the PCs.
But I'd love to test my bias one day with a blind test.

Re: Just general surfing stuff
The confirmation bias could be you two thinking we can’t tell the difference.
(I don’t know, as I said, I haven’t swapped out same template with different constructions)

Re: Just general surfing stuff
I notice big differences changing out fin templates even if they only look subtle. Or things like putting a slightly smaller rear fin in. But I've never tried a honeycomb and a fibreglass in the same template/foil on the same board so I'm not sure if I could tell or not. A few in the last couple yea...

Re: Injuries Blog
I don’t think I’ve ever surfed with stitches still in.
I heard a bloke with a cut got sepsis surfing in Lennox recently.

Re: Just general surfing stuff
FCS bringing out a few more classic templates (like MF, AM) in fibreglass and marketing it like it’s a new breakthrough after years of telling everyone how good honeycomb, carbon, and hollow fins are.
