Re: Localism
Mostly its just yokelism ... small town mentality ... even at places like Burleigh and the Ox. Embarrassing to witness let alone participate in. Respect works both ways ... you know ... its a two way street ... not a fcuking cul de sac.

Re: Kirra Groyne is Being Extended?
No womble, never occurred to them. 15t boulders of sufficient density aren't all that common. Apparently the old ones are in a retaining wall at a former councillor's place. Are these the same said boulders that were purportedly being kept in storage ... simple solution to that then ... take the fc...

Re: Ask Carroll
Don't worry Nick ... I've found the answer here ... ASP says ... Only Fanning can clinch the crown in Portugal. If Fanning wins the event: - Slater will need a 3rd or better to take the title decision to Hawaii. - Smith, Burrow and Parkinson will be out of the race. If Fanning finishes Runner-Up in ...

Re: Ask Carroll
As for the issue of big surf hick ups ... I'm guessing its the "corkiness' thats the problem and not simply fixed by blending some V into the tail or such ... kind of like why they put weights in tow boards.

Re: Ask Carroll
Hi Womble, I welcome Nick's expert reply, however just my own take and experience with eps/epoxy is that there is less need for deep concaves as a design example due to how high these boards sit on top of the water. Also I find a finer rail seems to work best. Just in general for me the constructio...
