Fun little waves on a lower tide then I walked out to the rock platform and caught 5 tailor.

I see a few more good dawnies happening in the near future.

Nick never used to say skill-set until I started using it.

Too wide for me.

I need under 20.

Pretty good week of dawn patrols.

My hands and feet are pretty sliced up from the high tide rock-offs and come ins -made a meal of it yesterday morning but no dings, so I'm happy.

Feel like I've been really tuning into my dawny routine this week. Up at 5. Coffee, quick skim of the news. Suit up. Few squats, farmers carries, get the blood pumping through the big muscle groups. Out the door, and in the carpark between 5.30-5.45 and a rock-off just after as it's light enough to ...

Who is Old crusty?

yeah, Melbourne still a shit hole.

Shame to see Nick so neutered now.

100% smaller than Melbourne.

Maybe that is why he declined the advertorial - because the pictures wouldn't back up the words?

Did he write a piece on it?

Shit, that is Nick!

I thought it was just some random old dude with a bad tube stance.

Nick Carroll?

Why is he so angry?

Correct.

Bit slow for the dawny but some good ones when they came.

Got hold of one set wave and my son reckoned it was the biggest spray he'd ever seen from my turns.

it's fun for kids and kooks and as a one off laugh for serious surfers.

Same as Melbourne.
