a contest-free sydney beach on weekends ?

[aaronn]

does one exist? surely a backlash or concerted protest from free surfers is overdue . it is becoming WAY too much. WAY too often.i pity the average weekend warrior. soon the paddle board contests will begin. add them to the longboard, shortboard, mens, boys, girls, masters, lifesavers, ironmen and women, nippers'...contests...ad infinitum

Where are you surfing aaron?

Aaronn is a visionary

actually ... at 7am yesterday I was at Longy looking at the dribble, and I noticed at the low end of the carpark a crowd of dopey looking fat uselss b@stards standing around ... then a guy towing a big trailer sign written with "Learn to SUP surf" pulls into the car park , paused and looked around then obviously noticed the crowd of dopey looking fat uselss b@stards standing around and figured they were his guys and drove over to them ...

I then slammed the car door on my head to relieve the pain of wittnessing what happened next ... then left wondering why I ever go near Longy on a weekend ...

Sort of explains why I left Northern beaches in 1973 I thought it was crowded then

Hows the bar been lately Jaffa?

It was at its current state yesterday________________________ banks are good to go but zilch swell.
The southern right whale 50 yards offshore was the most exciting thing for weeks.
Let me k,ow if you coming south I'll put a request into Huey.
only two contests a year here and none hit the Bar.

Best kept secrets good value has its classic days. That's why I've lived here for sixteen years!

I believe Coogee is available.
Personally I reckon your average mal contest is the perfect spot for a few uncontested waves. Particularly if its a bit larger.

Merimbula?

Only when she works and she's fickle, there are others more regular/ tight knowing crews and others boat ride away.
I grew up at Dee Why, a crowded bar is still less crowded than Dee Why.

^^ Fair cop, guess I should have checked that posted especially closely.
(I think I'm a dyslexic typer - as time goes on it's getting worse rather than better)

Dyslexia probably not more like the fnucking fat finger syndrome for the hunt and peck typist

Is today the second Sunday Dubbwah?
You're missing the point. All those fat old bastards have got money to spend - on themselves and on their kids. Why wouldn't SDS want to put their name out in front of them.
Besides, it's only Bondi.
