What the fuck is a bellybogger?

That's what the toilet repairmen call Grooter after a conference buffet.

Surfed Pacifica this afternoon on the Christenson ultra tracker. Was definitely a great way to end the week but I am starting to think I'll move the board on. On a steep face it's a scalpel but it is too refined for fuller waves and flat spots. I wore the 3mm yammie because it was relatively balmy, ...

Appreciate the review.
I'm staying very conservative and using terrain management but if I move to Europe or find some decent touring buddies I'll get one, probably the Avabag with the Litric system and the swappable pack sizes for hut tours.

September is way better.

No worries.
Lot easier to strap in and out with the buckles on the outside too.

Candide is a bit like JJF, but much older.

That dude is a freak. That was pretty good snow, he is normally skiing and jumping on shitty snow and moguls at 70km/h and hucking 50 foot jumps onto flat transitions.
Amazed he has any knees left.

It's directional too, even if it has minimal setback and no taper.
So the writing shows you which end is the front.

Looks like you set it up backwards?

Assuming you are regular, your back foot is normally somewhere between -6 and 0 (+6 for a really surfy stance) and your front foot is normally +12 to +24.

With size 10 boots you may need to move the heelcup back too.

That was funny.

I surf in the middle of the red triangle off California. I haven't been eaten yet.

I mean this in the nicest possible way Kulharin, but did your school classrooms always have two teachers?

Fort Bragg/Mendocino and Santa Cruz have both surf and MTB. Redding is a good base for biking, if the snow has melted by then. Highway 1 between Big Sur and San Luis Obispo is the best stretch in California. Surf options are sharky and wild. That's a fuckton of driving in a 2 week trip. And a few of...

SRFACE look like a cheaper Yammie option. Doesn't look like they ship to Australia.

I'll probably do the same, but at a different resort.

Could be 3 feet of snow in California over the next few days. Still way behind the average.

My boss is 6'2" and 120kgs and has surfed a lot on Maui so he's not a shrinking violet. Your boss has a BMI of 34, classifying him as obese ... have a quiet word with the fat fuck. Believe me I have. Last week he was all excited telling me he lost 12 pounds and I responded "Great, only 50 to go".

Santa Cruz has a reputation for fairly assertive localism in the lineup. Grooter and alakaboo, have you found this? Nah not at Pleasure Point. Seen a few arguments but nothing that constitutes localism Steamer Lane has a bit more of that vibe.but never experienced it personally I'd say it's a reput...

Thought it would've been wrapping in there a bit more.

Is there a reason you mainly surf Eastside?

I would've gone to Indicators.

Was excited to see Colby+ come out with some full Yammie suits at $300.
Until I saw they're rebranded Need Essentials.
