RealSurf Surfers' Forum

Everyone put your hand up if you would like to read The Outsider (Steve Shearer) articles in between ASP comps as well...? I dunno what about, anything about the surfing culture/world/industry....

What does everyone think? Where do we vote?

The surfing world needs more journalists like SS that say it like it is in his own way! A good laugh as well!

*puts hand up*

I vote "Yes"

That washed up, self serving, nescafe drinking, window waxing Gonzo wannabe???

Is the Pope.....

Hell yeah,
but as he's ensconced over the fence with swllnt, he might not come cheap.

And besides, since the vanilla revolution swept through here, he may not wanna

the man always delivers insights, far better than the usual drivel that passes for surf journalism.

I would like him to write about his experience with different breeds domesticated fowls in between ASP tours stops.

I want to read stuff biut the surfing and contest not the bullshit that bloke writes. I donteven understand what he's talking about half the time. I think the reason he's not in a mag is cause he's rubbish.

Perhaps you should have gone to high school.

Steve is quality.

nappydripper is a troll having a fish. the lexico-grammatical skills on display are not his actual lexico-grammatical skills.

Perhaps you locals should try and listen to someone elses opinion without putting shit on them.

Wise words, again, There young fella.
But you know, one minute you're a Grom, next thing ,yer a charger, mouthing off at all and sundry. it happens very quickly. Bide your time there youngster.

you're onto something there too kiddo.
But you'd be surprised to learn however. that despite his fondness for a savvy turn of phrase. Steve's a man of simple pleasures. Much like yourself, I hazard a guess. No frills, no bells, you know the rest. In fact he loves his xxxx, just like you. and secretly harbours a deep desire to be accepted within the hallowed inner sanctum of the pro surfing journalistic fraternity. But he stubbornly refuses to wear silly hats.
Suggest that you read some Dan Brown or Harold Robbins, that should help frame your understanding of this simple but thoughful man.

By the way, that's a wicked avatar you've got there!
is it MP?

No its some dude that got his face melted off by an electric shock.

come clean on what

But he's had a face transplant now, so you should update it.

Having seen some of those other transplants. I dont think it would look much better.
