Fcuk me, boring surfing...
Re: Just general surfing stuff
Oh god how irrelevant and sterile. Sounds even worse than watching that tic-tac 5 foot cross-onshore Bells beach event.

mind, if that wave was in the wild and not artificial; the froth meter would be melting under duress.

Re: Just general surfing stuff
I dunno, all this "oh I'm bored" stuff sounds a bit rehearsed to me.
Re: Just general surfing stuff
Nick, bored is probably the wrong word. Underwhelmed is probably a better word.
Every opportunity to push the limits, can't be surprised by a section or more power than expected, yet it is still safety surfing at its finest.

Tell you what, that fcuking Jeep ad is really getting on my tits.
Re: Just general surfing stuff
I watched a few waves. I couldn't get into it. Couldn't seem to see any results. Was there a leaderboard being constantly updated as surfers slip down into the relegation zone? I didn't see it. Seemed little drama.
Obviously, seen two waves, seen them all, doesn't help.
Probably better live, particularly with a tinnie in your hand.

Re: Just general surfing stuff
Looked like fairly safe surfing from the highlights. Seabass and parko were somewhat interesting, the girls' surfing seemed to suit the wave better, maybe due to lower power?
Re: Just general surfing stuff
Yeah. Boring, underwhelming. Call it what you like. I kinda switched off from giving a shit about the pro circuit right around the early nineties when boards became 17 inches wide and I realised that Tracks magazine was written by congenital retards for nihilistic bong addled deadbeats. The tub event just ices the cake.Nick Carroll wrote: ↑Fri Sep 07, 2018 1:21 pmI dunno, all this "oh I'm bored" stuff sounds a bit rehearsed to me.

Re: Just general surfing stuff
Thought I would look up how Occys wave is progressing.

The piston thingy in the middle of the lake that makes the waves is an impressive size, as is the size of the lake.
I just can't get my head around curved lines of swell, weakening energy as the swell radiates out, and once you are on a wave with a curved wall ahead, will that mean that you have to delay your bottom turn.
Hope it works for them as it is an impressive bit of engineering.

Occy's father was an engineer so it's no surprise that Occy is such a dab hand with the slide rule and the pencil.

More like a sly drool and penis.

Did you watch the whole xxckrn thing?
Do you get an unsociable work hours bonus?
Good read. I didn't watch any of it.
