No need to get testy GSTK. I’m sure the steamer you picked up from Tesco is completely adequate for the weekend warrior.

Yamamoto has been around, largely unremarked upon, forever. Don’t be swayed by this outbreak of cultish behaviour, BA. You’re better than that

I've been strictly utilitarian in my assessments through the ages Godsave, you know that.

I don't get sent 1mm thousand dollar wetsuits from Quicksilver that last 2 weeks to spruik like Carroll did/does.

( I note with a certain glee it disappeared from the market very soon after despite Carroll's endorsement)


But I do have to say the price premium on the Yamamoto is worth every single penny.

It's fine. You've got older, your physical conditioning has fallen off a cliff and you're trying to spend your way out of a hole, ignoring the sensible side of your brain that's whispering "it's all bullshit" and gorging on the Kool Aid instead. Happens to the best of us

Physical conditioning held up pretty well in a week of 6-10ft surf thanks for asking GS.

Must have been all that mile running.

Anyway, back to Yammie.

Looks like a 14ft wave face so definitely 7ft.
