Re: How is wave height measured in Australia?

*breathes out slowly from the nose* Inconsistency is the sole preserve of those of us who use ‘surfer feet’. It doesn’t need to be accurate because it’s just a ballpark, a suggestion. For the measurement ultras like you and Trev (who can forget his #sixfeetissixfeet campaign) it has to be the actua...

Re: How is wave height measured in Australia?

Where’s the shot, bro?
Wrong about what?
The best you can come up with is potentially inconsistent.
That’s not wrong, you goose.

Re: How is wave height measured in Australia?

Outed yourself as a chronic overcaller GST. Not to mention creator of the Covid Ultra tag that Steve flogged to death.

Re: How is wave height measured in Australia?

Can't help myself. Calling any object which is double overhead, 4-6ft is just fucking ludicrous. Regardless of how many people and "authorities" do it. One of the previous times we’ve had this discussion, I posted up a long boarder on a shitty little wave that both you and beanpole agreed was two f...

Trev, you aren’t allowed to have a different opinion or point out the absurdity of commonly held systems of measurement. Steve has gone off on one ...

Re: How is wave height measured in Australia?

No point trying to have a rational discussion with Steve, Foamy. I learnt that a long time ago.
Hawaiian Wave Scale in Hawaii?
Hardly the rest of the rest of the world.

Re: How is wave height measured in Australia?

It’s funny how conformist and doctrinaire surfers can be.
The amount of vitriol and emphatic adherence to perceived norms never ceases to amuse me.
See also the refusal to wear rash vests.

Re: How is wave height measured in Australia?

Well yeah. The Hawaiian Scale used in Hawaii.
Steve’s end of argument…commonsense rules “argument” is laughable.
No one is arguing that everyone doesn’t use the scale.
Just that it’s totally illogical.

Re: How is wave height measured in Australia?

Can someone tell Steve Surfline is calling it 4-6’.
Not actually an argument. Everyone has agreed it’s a bullshit scale that everyone uses.

Re: How is wave height measured in Australia?

OK, its time to drag out that big day at Ulus in 2008. No-one out at 7am, it was awesome! Two guys tow in at about 8:30am Skip to 1 minute where a surfer tows in and rides from the outside bomby all the way... https://youtu.be/HV5baEVfTbE So how big was it? Great waves. Definitely over 6’ :-D-:
