I see a subtle downgrade due to duration limited fetch but a very much better outlook for Teahupo'o.

It's called a dingleberry, foamingham, an occasional collateral poo event.

Well I`d actually forgotten I was on here . Checking the forecasts led me back here . I`m heading down to Bendalong Thursday night and if it gets as big as they say I`ll be watching as my biggest board is 6'0 . Hopefully can find somewhere a little sheltered from the swell so I can at least get wet . If anyone has any ideas suggest away .

Suggestion would be to hit up gumtree and ASAP sort yourself a cheap step or gun and get amongst it.

Yep , thought about that and still thinking about it . I`ve just bought a bunch of fins to try out too , so not sure if the the minister will approve . She`s actually at me to reduce the amount of boards I currently have . Maybe I can hide it .

Ten years between posts.

Buy a cheap cloth boardcover from sideways surf and put your board in it. If she ends up spotting as a recent purchase then promise to sell a couple of others soon, then don’t.

You might want to get your keyboard checked. I think the 'o' is buggered.
