Re: Just general surfing stuff

…and loofy has got even fatter since he moved to Avalon. Plus ca change etc Hang on the fcuk! You’re shïtting me? Could he be anymore of an English cliché - Bondi to Avalon? He’d have way more cred if he moved from Bondage to Albion Park Rail. God Save, I see you showed respect and changed your mon...

Re: Just general surfing stuff

You will notice that Beanpole has retired, aj. He has also fallen out with a number of people, some of whom have blocked him and others that are just pretending to have. I’ll leave you to make your own assumptions as to how that is playing out. daryl is still fighting the good covid fight, so if you...

Re: Where did you surf today ?

Mate, you’ve been peddling that line for years. The quote from Nick Carroll outing you as a fatty is below. We all saw it, we all know you’re a disgusting fat fuck but we accept you for who you are. Ha we pulled up to a little right hander and a nearby resort boat was there. There was a bit of surf ...

Re: Nth NSW sharks. Can they p!ss off already?

I’m sorry steve but aren’t you the bloke that wangs on constantly about the absolute purity of pristine wilderness? Surely shark nets are the oceanic equivalent of the Enclosure Act?

Re: Nth NSW sharks. Can they p!ss off already?

You’re not moving the debate along at all. Yours is an essentially Old Testament viewpoint, no matter how you dress it up in pretty words: “And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the ...

Fuck, 10 turtles and a few other big fish so a city of nearly 5million can play safely in the ocean. As if you wouldnt.
Absolutely loof. Let’s call it what it is though instead of trying to dress it up in some weird aquatic ape costume

Re: Nth NSW sharks. Can they p!ss off already?

You haven’t come close to providing a rational argument against it though. Humans don’t cohabit oceans, we use them for recreation. There is always the choice to completely avoid the apex predator in a way that a village living next to a tiger doesn’t have

If you don’t want a shark to bite you, don’t go in the water. It really is as simple as that

Re: Nth NSW sharks. Can they p!ss off already?

Being in the sea for 99% of users (probably more) is very much optional recreation. We don’t ‘share the sea’ in the way that people who live next door to land predators share territory. Indeed, many people choose never to go in the sea and their lives appear little different to ours. So the whole, i...

Nice technique.

I feel "bad" about being such a pussy in the sub-tropics but I hate wet wetsuits.
You don’t have a shady tree that you can use? Eg

Re: Just general surfing stuff

The Chinese tour groups are great. They have common items of clothing so you can identify members of the group, and a couple of leaders with an identifying flag on a long stick that they wave around. Even family groups dress in the same colour and style, all obviously made by the same tailor. And o...

Anyone tried the Vissla winter suits? Almost top shelf price for their top of the line.

Re: that wetsuit discussion...

Thanks leej, interesting article. I only kinda skimmed it so didn’t see if it mentioned wind chill. Pretty sure that a 2mm upper body in a biting NE on a genuinely 0 degree day would drive me out of the water pretty quickly Read the details- experiments conducted in mild conditions. Still, nice to ...
