Re: Strahan tassie

Cranked's stats look fine, digger. Rain and cold doesn't stop you doing anything, just make sure you get everyone the right clothing, the right thickness wetsuits. I was down the beach with the kids on Sunday in fact: 4 degrees and drizzle and they happily spent an hour and a half looking for shells...

Re: Pipe Masters 2017

You have posted a superbly shit stirring post. Australian's as over enthusiastic blobs devoid of glib European like analysis I think you misunderstand me Thud. Blakey is a good commentator. Not 'good for a surf commentator' good but actually, properly good. I was just referring to his accent; he se...

Re: Pipe Masters 2017

Some thoughts: Ronnie Blakey is, head and shoulders, the best WSL commentator. Despite his enthusiastically Australian delivery, I genuinely look forward to hearing him. He has reached a point where he is actually enhancing the heats he calls, and that's about all you can ask for in a commentator. W...

Re: Sri Lanka to the Maldives

Independent travel's a relatively new thing in the Maldives (last ten years or so), so it might be tricky I guess. Depends what you're intending to do. Speculatively flying into Male and hoping to pick up a spot on a boat probably won't work but if you book in advance with someone like Surf Atoll (h...

Re: Just general surfing stuff

Jonathan and Alex clearly looked at different weather forecasts that morning. Can you remember what the correct choice actually was Al? Beach dude or minicab driver?

Re: Bribie Island Board Riders

Would I be right in thinking that places like Bribie exist to make the rest of Australia seem palatable?

I was just thinking about airplanes blowing up. We're you flying reconnaissance low over the Board Riders Pointscore ctd and collided with the club historian's drone?
Al, am I dreaming this or have you previously been in a plane crash?

Re: Just general surfing stuff

My suspicion has always been that the emergence of a discrete fin market was a gloriously surprising golden goose for the surf industry. It's really not in their interests to restrict choice or to allow any suggestion of emperors new clothes hence the vast and confusing ranges of essentially the sam...
