Re: Planning two weeks thru Oregon and Cali in May

When we tried to drive through Big Sur the road was out. So we got as far as the first village and had to turn back to Monterey. Went inland which was interesting and came back to the coast at Cambria. Drove up to the Southern Extremity of Big Sur plus checked out Hearsts Castle which is a total tri...

Re: Foamies

My Chopstick fcuking kills it. 60/40 rails. I occasionally drag something else out but unless you want to nose ride there’s not much performance advantage in riding a fibreglass mal in typical Bondi conditions.

Foamies

After watching regular clips of Jamie O’Brien getting shacked at Pipe on a 9’ bright pink foamie it’s time to admit that all surfboard design is irrelevant to performance.

Re: Where did you surf today ?

I’ve been glad to have some cool weather and a couple of days off from surfing.

Re: Where did you surf today ?

Further south from you at Pleasure Point (33rd avenue) Mostly 4 foot waves, got a couple of nice long rides on the longboard. Cold but it was a beautiful morning, clear, blue skies etc... I had a surf at Pleasure Point. So many right hand point breaks in California. All around Santa Cruz. Same arou...

Re: Where did you surf today ?

Tama was fairly solid this arvo and looking the best I’ve seen it in a while. Thought it might be doing it with more swell. Fairly large pack. Out of my league these days.

Re: Where did you surf today ?

A bit bigger today and really crowded. Solid rip running. Managed two long fast lefts and a good right I barely managed the take off on. Called it a day after that. A lot of expensive mid lengths and mals in the water with very rudimentary riders.

Re: Ebay Bargains thread

Speaking of…You’re only young once……one of my biggest regrets is not jumping onto fish way earlier. On the plus side all the brouhaha about midlengths was sorted 20 years ago.
