Hey that looks like the late Newcastle Col Smith riding Narrabeen Col Smith's local :shock: Now I'm confused. My two cents on singles-I like how they hold in a barrel without having to constantly make little turns to keep going but this is also a limitation. I can't believe how many expensive fish a...

Don't be an aggro idiot in the water. Ultimately its the waves and the fact that you live in the biggest city in OZ that create the problems. The other part of the equasion with adult learners is that as well as not being able to stand up they don't really understand where they are and don't watch b...

Did they catch any waves?

I was down the beach a couple of weeks ago and they were filming some rescue footage for Bondi Rescue. These swimmers had drifted into the gutter south of the flags and the crew was trying to bring them back in where the cameras were. Only trouble was the rip was running hard north into the flags. T...

Getting any good shoots out there this morning? There were a few white horses due to the offshore conditions.

I always liked ripping the bag out of it with its imagery of working in a slaughterhouse disemboweling waves.

Whatever happened to the bottom hand turn?

Eight foot?
Fong youve got the board for Coffs thats for sure.
Does it have any details on it about who shaped it?

You can sing the banana boat song while you dodge the tourists this easter.

You see the odd one of his boards kicking around Bondi. Usually a mini mal or mal with a bit of a McCoyish look and chined rails. Usually riden by members of the mal club. A mate of mine at Lennox told me about having Morning of the Earth on the video as he walked past the unit. He yelled out "Hey B...

Surfanimals your on a quest to own every type of really good surfcraft. Good luck but how about hanging onto em a bit longer :? Most of the boards you go through I'd hang onto for a couple of years and really know how they perform and let them teach me how good they can go. Its great to watch your c...

They used to sell replacement cords briefly. You could just undo the rope and put a new cord on your leash. Funny that didn't last long
Don't try your repaired leggie out at any distant reef breaks.


Spotting hash was a wicked thing to do to your lungs anyway

Hows some of those seventies guns
The Parish looks unreal and that Channin Diffendefer pintail
How could they be sitting somewhere for that long waiting for the next big day that never came.

Anything but a surfer's paradise for past champ Paul Scott | April 22, 2007 "I got punched in the head by some aggro bloke at Currumbin just a few weeks ago because I dared to ask him not to drop in. Interesting. I remember him being one of the most agro blokes in the water even in the 60's. Normal...

Wow, good reading, where do I read more ? I just found that when I did a google on Drouyn. Its from the gold coast bulletin or equivalent high class local periodical from up there. I'll see about locating a link later but but my allocated time on the family computer is short and under constant thre...

Anything but a surfer's paradise for past champ Paul Scott | April 22, 2007 WHILE some of the surfing industry's biggest and richest names prepare for a celebration marking the 30th anniversary of a landmark surfing contest, the former champion who masterminded professional surfing's format is livin...

They always seem to be short one harpoon and a whale.

There seems to be a lot of bagging mini mals. I see a lot of older blokes around stuggling on shortboards because they're too proud to up a foot. They're usually the ones having the least fun. How true. Saw a guy on a fish today catch a little wave and just stop as he stood up. Too much downward pr...

Took the real mal out for a cruise yesterday and I can't imagine anything more suited to the waves unless it was an even bigger mal. Forgot how f#!* heavy it was

Carver is my main mid length board of choice by far at the moment. Just wondering if I'll take it to Bali or not

Look Gumby I've give you a quick tip about choosing a board for Bali. It can be a swallow-tail: http://actionsport.tv/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2007/09/gerrylopez.jpg Or a pin: http://www.malibulongboards.com/bolt.jpg Interesting pintail :lol: :lol: :lol: The top one looks like a beast one of th...
