Re: Surf Etiquette in the Line-up

Yes i have told Tom to fcuk off for dropping in on me and will do again.

Just cause he can out surf me doesn't mean he can take ...

I'll second that. Top bloke. Probably bought my last half dozen boards off him and most of my wetties (at a discount :wink: ). Good surfer too.

Re: Rip Curl Search 2011

^^ I spent 4 mths in NorCal, some 13yrs ago. Only surfed Ocean beach the once. It was on one of the smallest days of my stay, the spots I frequented over there were knee high at best. OB was head high and like a fun day at Sth Straddie, peaks detonating all up and down the beach as far as the eye c...

Re: Rip Curl Search 2011

Worst decision ever. Dream tour my lily white arse.

It'll be just like the old days in no time. Contests held in average grovel type waves. There will be a contest back at Manly in no time. :roll:

Owen Wright surfed his heat very well, 3 strong scores, it does not look like an easy to surf backhand but he did some giant moves.
If it stays sizey, Owen's a big chance I reckon.

How farken perfect is it!

Why would you put this in the tangents/non-surf section? You are clearly looking for some people to put shit on you. Clown. :roll:

Re: Surf Etiquette in the Line-up

He did have stickers on his board Fong, but he was a very average surfer. That's what made it all the more amusing. I'm pretty laid back so getting in his face/following to his house/slapping him ain't gonna happen. I guess a bit of tone in the voice may have helped. Or acting like a complete nutter...

Re: Surf Etiquette in the Line-up

This happened yesterday. Pretty much sums up what surfing in Sydney is like these days. Sorry if I ramble. As you're probably aware, the waves have been micro, but the conditions perfect (maybe half the problem). I needed to get wet, it was a beautiful day, warm water, glassy, but lucky to be thigh ...

I have been working on an invention since 95 for a kinda solar powered car airconditioner, but i keep working for companies that make me sign intelectual property clauses that mean they get any idea i come up with, so it keeps getting put on the back burner.

Re: Mavericks death

They are saying he got held under by two waves. 25ft is the call.

Agree with your coment about Shippies Skipper, just a matter of time I reckon.

Big wave charger Hawaiian Silos Milosky killed whilst surfing mavericks today.

Always sends a shiver down my spine when I read of a surfer dying.

Re: harlequin baby - where did it go?

Yeah sincere apologies guys...

Keep in mind I'm only 20 years old, possi...

Re: Surf school graduates.

1. 35 years

2. maybe 5 years or so

3. no

Another question. How did ya learn?

Me, I was pretty much self taught. Just used to watch the older guys and copy them. As I got older some of em would offer advice, help me out.

No surf schools back then.
