Less kilojoules perhaps?

Buddy that looks awesome.

I still think this is all just a massive troll. I mean really, in which carpark do you think others won't just laugh at you. Maybe Avalon I guess, with a bunch of sup riders new to the water. How have you surfed for ever without using the conventional system that every single other surfer I've ever ...

Trev, you're up.

It is interesting but it’s not corrupted imo cranky, it’s just cultural. That's the weird thing - in the WA surf culture ranging from grommets to people almost as old as Cranked it's all iggy scale. So it's incongruous that he suddenly decided to adopt an obscure British website's system. There was...

If you haven't learnt yet at this stage of your life and it's so confusing to you, I'd stick with your magic seaweed kilojoules.

It's trivially simple to every single local grommet though, and always has been since I was a grommet and well before that too.

I used to do my best estimation in feet from the flat base to the highest point, using a surfer as scale, then divide by 2 and round down. But even this, it seems, is fraught with problems. The biggest waves I surf would probably be called 3' or maybe 4', not very informative IMHO. It's not fraught...

Listening to Kaipo insert three extra apostrophes into Te'a'hu'po'o. FFS, it's like the WSL thought "How can we make Joe Turpel seem like less of a dick? I know! Kaipo!"

I'm watching surfing from yesterday. Strider Raspberry Wasilewski just twice mentioned how people have more cubic litres in their boards. Can anyone explain cubic litres to me and how they might improve my surfing?

aj I found the one downside to those boots. I'd read some stuff saying they stink. It's true. They are getting worse. They currently smell like sewer pits from the depths of hell. I dry them properly each time. Doesn't help. I even bought some special boot hangers. Doesn't help. I don't rinse them i...

He looked more anxious before the hearing, that's for sure:

Haha that's totally my surfing life.

I reckon steve's just winding down towards the twilight of his surfing.

I'm loving mine. First time ever.

Ah, Friday loofy. I went a bit Friday loofy myself today irl.

Yep. That, or like today throwing myself over the ledge on an onshore 1' wind wave. But yep, lots of little tiny things that push my personal limits. You do it too steve, when you're on the stones in the dark and the rain. loof' does it when he's racking up his sixth line on a Friday afternoon. You ...

For your own benefit. Fcuk, I test myself on a daily basis. If I don't, why bother living really.
