Re: Bruised ribs
More likely to be rip cartilage damage rather than a fractured ... but then again I'm no doctor. Either way its the same prognosis for both scenarios ... 6-8 weeks ... sometimes longer. Paddling is a no no. Enjoy.

Re: Summer 2013-'14
Hey Don. There's been some really sneaky, super fun ones really early down my way. Clean & Glassy. Not a whole of push, but some excellent shape. Dear Mr Braithwaite ... everyone knows that there is never any surf "down your way" ... stop getting peoples hopes up ... its unchristian like behaviour....

Re: Which FCS?
Base refit fins are boring. Futures is the best system if your main issue is the idea that base strength makes the big difference. It's a fcuken good system anyway. FCS 2 has more base support and is piss easy to use, click in and go. I think people who still claim glass on fins are missing out, li...

Re: Ask Carroll
Dear Nick. Rest assured that no malice was intended. It was a throw away, tongue in cheek comment. Poorly thought out; well actually not really thought out at all. Humour gone astray. I didn't realise that the wound was so deep. Anyway, I apologise to both you and your brother for my poor judgement....

That's heavy NC. Do you approach the board bible/test/review in the same way? I mean, if you say something untoward about a board and the shaper/manufacturer objects, do you say 'F'you that's what I think or do you smooth it over in the interest of the mag? Oh I have a bit more of a nuanced view th...

Maybe we could chip in and buy one for shearer as a surprise. It might cheer him up. Are you by chance insinuating that he has anything but a sunny disposition ... I'm flabbergasted. Framed as well? Oh a frame would be essential. The frame would most certainly have to be made from recycled fence pa...

Re: McTavish Surfboard Voucher.
Steve ... is it like transferable ... could one use it up the road at say Michael Cundith's or zip around the corner and redeem it for one of David Parkes masterful creations. They ... being Michael or Dave ... could then pop around to Bob and swap it back for the cash.
