Re: Where did you surf today ?
50 out at Bronte. A bit smaller than yesterday. Nice conditions with a few good looking waves in the mix but too crowded for basically one peak.

Re: Injuries Blog
Just have a word to Bugs about where he gets his long pants. He had some impressively baggy ones on yesterday during the broadcast.

I never realised Baja was one of the most violent parts of Mexico. Guess I’ve watched too many longboarding movies.

Amazing how cathartic letting off some steam can be!

Re: Just general surfing stuff
My absolute worst type of wave is one with a tight small take off area where situations like this are more or less geared into the experience.

Re: Just general surfing stuff
That’s what happened to a friend of mine. Went to take off and someone had eaten it on the take off. He tried to miss them and got pushed into the wall and dragged down the pool.

Re: Where did you surf today ?
Well yesterday made up for the last three surfs I had at Bronte. Floundering around catching nothing. Just had to be philosophical and enjoy the view. Yesterday was just a classic little surf day. Got plenty of waves. Good vibes in the water. Happy with how I was surfing.

Re: Sun Screen
Dude, I’ve had multiple BCCs and a melanoma cut out of my back plus regular sunspots burnt off.

Re: Sun Screen
The big beef is about some ingredients effecting coral reefs. Zincs good for your skin if anything. Some stuff burns your eyes but that’s got more to do with the stability of the ingredients than the ingredients themselves. Soap burns your eyes too. No way is using sunscreen more dangerous than not ...

Re: Sun Screen
Who remembers bullfrog. It was like superglue. I’ve got a big pump pack of Le Tan. I put some on every time I go surfing. Banana Boat was pretty good too but they had a bit of variation between the different styles of bottle. Followed by Tan Zinc on my nose. Just stopped wearing a hat or cap since t...
