Re: Ask Carroll

Hi Nick,

Nick here...

Do you reckon you'll get into this tow in thing?
Have you surfed much in Bali?

Always enjoyed your scribes & Tom Bakers most of all.

If your over in Bali again anytime soon drop me a PM...
shout you a Bintang or two.

Cheers

Re: Kuta/Legain Accommodation Recommendation?

Get off the plan, jump in a taxi & find your own place...
All the other recommendations are spot on as well if you want to pre-organize something.

Be prepared for a shock if you haven't been in a while...

G-Land should be good in the mornings & evenings.

Have fun

Cheers

NC what is the biggest wave you have ridden. Scale: 1ft = 1 x 0.5. 25 feet. I was a parent at the time :lol: Nick... that doesn't count for you. You come from a bloodline that's meant to ride those beasts! If there is an exception to the rule then your in the same class as TC, RCJ, T-Ray Laird and ...

I know exactly where you mean. Makes me wanna surf there again. Cloudbreak is the damd jewel there. Frigates doesnt rate next to it I reckon anyway. Wilkes is sectiony and now where near as good as the left across the channel. Like you said too exxy. Na fark it, I still wouldn't go for the surf alon...

Tavarua

What's the deal with restaurants. I thought you could surf it but only if you stay at the resort. Is the resort seriously expensive? I've thought about Fiji in the past for a family holiday, but I would really want to have a break out the front that didn't require boats and large sums of money. Whi...

Not so good...

As surfing destination on the cheap it's a no way! Nearly impossible to surf Cloudbreak, Namoto. The Wilkes Passage is your only real option for a decent wave and it's the worst set of all the reefs in the immediate area that your not f==ken allowed too surf! The rivermouths ok but fickle. Beachbrea...

Hey salty, how'd you manage to live there for 5 years? The old man (now retired) was an Ozzie diplomat. I've been lucky enough to live in serveral emabassies around the world over the course of my younger years. In Fiji I was a freelance graphic designer and making some serious money (the old man s...

Surf for you.
If she doesn't like it well Stuff it.
You gotta do what makes you happy.
Contrary to the saying it not "All about her".
Geezzus ... harden up is a good call.
Give her a chiko roll and tell her to shut up, loose some weight and get a smaller bikini...
