RealSurf Surfers' Forum

I’ve been wearing fsc 2 reef booties for the past couple of years surfing any reefs where there’s urchins or barnacles. Only took a few sessions before becoming used to them. Now I can’t even feel any difference/compromise between going barefoot. Might be overkill but time out of the water sucks and...

Nearby wind protected reef at 3-4 ft plus. Consistent sets and plenty in between. Spread out setup with shifting bowling peaks coming through with plenty of waves to go around. Was feeling lazy after finishing work and it’s a bit of a paddle out so opted for the 6’10 freeflight 2+1 midlength round t...

So I’m assuming you’re pretty fucking happy with your decision?

Oh yes indeed BA, more than happy. And yes Steve, it’s a great wave.

Then a late arvo session out at the bommie. Head high plus sets, flawless conditions, plenty coming thru. Only three of us out there.

3-4 foot offshore beach break barrels, a-framing rights, bank to myself.

Bombie 5-6 foot. Couple of screamers and a couple of solid slap downs getting pitched on take off

Yeh I changed my mind to thud.

Keep it to yourself, but my guess, the artist formerly known as hatchnam

It ain’t me. I’ll stick to shit-stirring/informing on keto/meat, that’s time consuming enough

Slobadan = Thud

Seems like Iggs is bored of the regional lifestyle already and resorted to trolling.

Wrong. Just like the contents of your pantry and refrigerator pal, it’s wrong wrong and wrong again

How's the hip Iggs? So far so good. About 2.5wks back surfing, albeit only in the 1-3 foot range, feels like I have full range of motion (roundhouse cutbacks etc) with no detriment. Have surfed the bombie in the head high range a couple of times on the twin fin, loose, fast and easy enough to manag...

Bombie with head high sets and a little bit of push to it from the long period swell.

This blows my mind. Steve cabellero late 50s upside down and Tony Alva late 60s (surfs good too)

science says no.

the average Australian man was 175.6 cm

bang on my height. though my wingspan is 6 foot 5. a freak of nature

Appropriate time to post the brazo pumping a mini-mal at Maroubra to understand your definition of style. lol. Don’t worry mate, I’m sure he’d surf rings around you. I’ve seen pics of him on the same shit heap mini mal carving big chunks out of solid overhead indo reef breaks. And said older bloke ...

Anyone tried the Alpha Omega bonzer twin? it’s a sick looking board, I’d get one. There’s a goofy footer his sixties that surfs North Maroubra point on one. He’s surfed there for decades, bald bloke kinda short, you may have seen him before. Stylish pendulum-like surfing rail to rail. nothing ever ...

I’ve had it out in anything from waist high beachies to DOH reefs and points. It holds, it goes.

Plenty loose, no need to over-surf the board either. Love the drag-free feel and freedom on the wave face.

The skatebowl with loose trucks cross-training has been working a treat, v-similar approach

What size is your twinny Iggy?

6’2 x 20 1/4 x 2 5/8. 39 litres, plenty foam = plenty drive.

Flawless 4-5 foot Cronulla beach breaks. Surfed the Gunther twin. Such an easy board to surf, effortless, fast, loose, plenty of drive and hold.
