Please, elaborate

It's certainly a shifty look to wear a hood in the surf this far north.

Was still plenty of swell this arvo but just enough strength in the NE wind to ruin it and not enough tide for the spots that were cleaner.

Can't surf till about 4.30pm unfortunately.

Didn't look that big first thing this morn but it has jacked big time.

Did they say first time O-dog has beaten Jordy ever?

Take it easy on Beery thanks, Buddy. He went to Waterbom after all.

Did he go on the flow rider?

Now I'm laying down in a three seater lounge at the empty, as usual, gate 55 departure lounge. Plane leaves in an hour, an old friend will pick me up at the airport, bike guy will have delivered my bike, my room will be ready, and I can ease my way back into surfing. Thank god. It seems like an ete...

Good swell here, shit banks.

I'm hoping to be one of those hopeless hacks out at the Ox tomorrow. Good luck mate, find that little knob of sand and sit on it. Wait for the good ones. If I was down there you could rummage through the quiver but it’s too risky while I’m up at Bribie Thanks Steve, it's a bummer we couldn't meet u...

Steve, why do they have a red vest in one heat, a blue in the other, but a white vest in both?

Thumb-rests.

but proper step-ups can ameliorate the deficiencies in a sub-par skill set. Only because they stop people from trying to turn. god dickless fcuking urban vegans who can't turn a 6'3" in OH surf should be put against the wall. but no-one rides 6'3"'s anymore, we've been brainwashed into thinking any...

I find I'll choose my turns more wisely on a bigger board/proper stepup ie do a proper bottom turn and line up the section or bit of face that you want to turn in. And the more you surf it, it carries back to your surfing on your regular shortboard. Anyway, I won't go for turns that I'm not going to...

Ujung bocor to start

Nope.

What I meant was, in response to BP, if you've bought it cheap 2nd hand already, shouldn't be too hard to sell cheap at the same price or for a small hit.

I know what you're saying though, Nick.

ha ha the modern surfboard industry has killed the second hand market

Makes it easy to score good boards that you wanted to try. Pity is you have to keep them if they don't work for you.

Why?
Buy cheap 2ndhand then sell for the same price or a tiny bit less.
