RealSurf Surfers' Forum

thanks for the replies guys. South America does sound amazing and I havent been there yet. But I am honestly a bit concerned about travelling on my own there with no spanish or portugese. Has anyone here done it solo? If i had a travel mate id be there in a shot. Ive travelled on my own around Europ...

Guys and Gals Im lucky enough to be in a position to take 3 months off work from June to do some sole (and surf) searching. The aim of the trip is to get some great waves but to also have some cool life experiences. Ive got roughly 10k to spend, but would like to come home with some if possible. Onl...

Giving money to poor kids is all well and good, but you are all missing the most important point about this boat.

Big boats produce massive wakes- Wakes can be ridden on boards!

Thanks natho.

im trying to become an exact clone of Slater. Ive even started shagging Giselle.

Anyone one know the rough dimensions of the bigger pro's (75-80kg+)boards?

I'll be there! Just scored a FREE ticket.

Cool as Fcuk!

Strange to hear that people dont hang onto these items. Winning the comp would have been one of the highlights of his BB career, you'd think he would have kept it. I know I would.

i've got about 20 different kinds of old school morey's. very happy to have them too. although, i do want a "VF". undoubtably one of the best of that era of boards. anyone got one? that would complete me! :lol: Got one of these little babies? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Bodyboard-Limited-Ed-Mike-Stewart-...

BRING BACK THE 7-X, preferably the black one.

Ive had 3 of these puppies, funny thing was that there was no consistency with the shape, they were all completely different. I think they just shaped a board however they felt and slapped 7-x on it.

Red 1 7.20 DANIELA FREITAS BRA
White 4 0.00 LEILA ALLI BRA
Blue 2 4.93 KIRA LLEWELLYN AUS
Black 3 4.13 AOKI KOIKE

Geez, Leila didnt even get a wave. Rather embarrasing.

Cronulla had some great little waves on Sunday, I was out Elouera at about 10am and the alley at 5pm.

Alley was pretty much as good as it gets and about 4 foot. Probablem was the number of good surfers out there made things rather frustrating.

Big comp about to go down in the US http://www.bodyboarding.tv/usba/ They even have a webcast. Most of the big name aussies are in it. It's actually the comp in Maui, not the 'Jenks Pro' which is in New Jersey I think. And hows how it says "Which rider will win?" and tells you only five names? No "...

Lester, Kingy, Players & Hardy are all in.

Have a look at the draw http://www.bodyboarding.tv/usba/news.php?id=66

I dont know too much about surf forcasting, but I do know that wind brings waves- E.G http://www.buoyweather.com/wxnav6.jsp?r ... =8&units=e

I stayed at my uncle's over the holidays. He is one of the keenest surfers out there and has NEVER got rid of a board. His son's are also well and trully on the collection/hording wagon. I estimate they would have 200-300 boards. They are everywhere, in old cars, under the house, in the shed, in bus...

I cross my legs, at the ankles, when paddling. Have trieds to uncross them but it doesnt feel natural. Also when riding a mal, I do big leg kicks in time with my strokes, just like the clubbies. I also just got some photo's of me surfing, noticed that just after standing up I drop my right hand like...
