The Ripcurl seamless boardies are almost foolproof.
-solved my problems
If you're still suffering, or dont want to set out 70 clams,
get a set of the eurotrash style long speedos
-kinda like cycling shorts without the chamois.
wear them underneath.

Aquabumps is, of course, technically a better photographer, but his shots are more like standard surf fodder, with the occasional sunrise or booty shot. The bondilife guy is more evocative, and shows a wider array of the experience of surfing at bondi. I like em both tho. -Even if Uge is sucking up ...

Chris Isaak surfed Bondi a few years back,
and there was an article about him in Surfer mag a few years back, going over the falls on an 8 foot day near San Fran.

I recon recovery days are an important thing, although with the cross training you're doing it might be ok, as you're working different parts. Even elite athletes take days off to recover. Push too hard and you'll start to injure yourself. Speak to your coaches - they should have a decent idea. Depe...

Macca

I recon decent starts at about 3 foot.
so half decent = well, about what it was around noon.

in the same way a pretty girl might be an 8/10
so a 4/10 is half decent.

Like the waves, you might give her a ride cos you're desparate,
but its not going to be something to remember fondly.

In Indo, at waves like Shipwrecks, and Bingin, some surfers will pay locals to get them into waves. The local will sit deepest, paddling for the wave, meaning he has priority over the other surfers, the paying kook on the shoulder is then called onto the wave, and the local pulls off.
