Cannot get psyched for another session on that shifty beachie I've been surfing all week in brown water.

Even with a brand new F Bomb.

I thought your area was no brown water or brown people.

Not as bad, still shitty.

I've been surfing spot x/flatty lefts all week.

Can't see your feet when sitting on board.

Think I might get drunk tonight- that should bring the sun and offshores for tomoz.

God getting a good workout in the post heat interviews. Surely he’s got enough to do in the Middle East killing kids and whatever.

I had an excellent surf at flattie when we went for a holiday last year. Had a look at Lennox but it looked a bit like hard work

In her post heat interview at Snapper, Erin Brooks thanked the lord for letting her win ... yeah na.

Although you could argue surfing has a higher proportion of random luck than a lot of sports.
I think they should be required to specifically identify which god they are refering to.
“I would like to thank Huey for sending me that double up barrel that got me out of a combo.”
“Kanaloa God of the Surf and the Underworld has gifted me this win in the semis.”

Interesting story from Stu on Swellnet. Be interested in Cranked’s thoughts. Looks totally fucked to me.

Fuck that. I get the reasoning but no way I want to go somewhere like that.
