Re: Eggs - how do you like them?

Are you far enough forward on the nose when you duck dive, like about a foot further forward from your paddling position.

Re: bali forecast

.....and as the end of January approaches so does another possible trip to Bali. Any heads ups re: swell? I've never seen the south coast flat Beany. But keep in mind that the wet season has been unseasonably dry most years for a while now and there could be a return to "normal" conditions some tim...

Re: Where did you surf today ?

Tuncurry breakwall huh! How do you like your sharks Ricky.?? Interesting you mention that. I was out there again this morning (lumpy and wind-affected). A couple of locals pointed out a chopper off to the north buzzing around. 'That's the shark-spotter'. There was a heap of birds and dolphins havin...

This place looks alright. Anyone been? Bit of a hike to get to. Maybe keep the crowds low.

So true Beery. Legion's talents are wasted in Perth's suburbia, he needs an industrial behemoth he can use to reshape the planet.

No fcukin' way for me channels. Whatever they did it would be Perth's best wave, the queues world be enormous.

Re: Kelly's wave.

You've lost me. Truly. Is it a feeling of being left behind? Of no longer having the same relevance in a world that you have been a pretty key figure in for a goodly portion of those 45 years? What would a 30 year old Nick Carroll think of wavepools, do reckon? Wave pools are anathema to me too. Th...

Re: Kelly's wave.

Given that the average ride goes for about 5 seconds and most surfers will never have a ride over 25 seconds in a lifetime of surfing, $10 (which is less than the price of a craft beer) for a really good 60 second wave seems not an unreasonable spend. Bullshitt. 99% of QLD and NSW surfers who ride ...

Re: Nth NSW sharks. Can they p!ss off already?

Shark sightings in WA, Perth and MR areas. Didnt bother with the tag detections. Things are hotting up, weekly sightings will probably double over the next few months (see http://www.sharksmart.com.au/shark-activity/) Public report 3.5m white shark sighted 12:00hrs 13/09, Injidup Beach, south of Yal...

Re: Just general surfing stuff

It's super bold! I still don't really know why anyone other than surfers would ever wanna watch it though. Yeah super bold as you say. I believe it would give the owners the best chance of maximum return on their investment but I also believe its a complete abandonment of what surfing means to a lo...

Re: Just general surfing stuff

A lot of things in life are not about the fcuking money: taking surfing, of all sports, down that track is a very sad moment for surfing. The very best result would be for the surfers to take a stand, and say no, this is not what surfing is. That would make them legends. They are fcuking pro surfer...
