Tom Carroll and Quicksilver

Post by Natho » Mon Apr 28, 2008 11:46 am

Has Tom Carroll and Quicksilver parted ways?

Just noticed TC wearing Oneill wetsuits of late and no more Quicksilver stickers on his board.

Possibly I am jumping to conclusiuons but just interested if he is still very much part of the whole Quicksilver thing?

Mabye is was just 'testing' different wetties?

Sounds like TC won't be putting a wettie on for a while unfortunately, after what
NC described happened to him on the weekend :cry:

Poor bugger, could be a while.

Sh*t I just heard the news. Hope he is ok.

He was in good form on Saturday out at the peak considering the waves were not too flash. To think he is now out of action.

Lets wish him a speedy recovery.

Tom's been testing wetsuits...no splittage occurring. (Xcept maybe in the wetsuit seams.)

Natho you were watching someone else on Saturday, TC didn't catch a wave.

Speaking of Oneill ... what was with that big fuck off truck driving around the northern beaches on the weekend? How can they possibly claim they give any shit at all about the enviroment and all that hi-ho when they are driving a car that makes a hummer look like a mini.

Once Tom gets past the Ice stage his challenge will be to keep off it...poor bastard.

Wishing you much healing and support from those that can assist your recovery.

I saw that bohemoth last week around Brookvale, I swear some helicopters would be more fuel efficient than that thing, but imagine having that thing run up the ass of your car!

Moondoggie if that's an intentional pun like I think it is, it's pretty poor taste

if not then ignore this
