Just finished a surf with a couple of British commandos who are here training with Marines up the coast a bit at Camp Lejeune. Nice guys, from near Cornwall. One could surf okay, his mate was a newbie.

And yesterday I got spam about a Camp Lejeune Water Contamination law suit......................spooky

This you Womble?

Could also be Trev, getting to his knees first in a two-step process. Or Coops doing double drop-knee.

It's still a one step process.
Just a little slower than it used to be.

Although I find that if I don't think about it and the thing is rearing up a bit, I can still get to my feet quickly. Just not every time. 🤬

It was over the border at a place that you’d surf. And to be honest I’ve not seen too many cripples around here. And he looks like an old prick.

Could be my old mate. He was supposed to be on that trip to the Maldives but had to pullout because he just had heart surgery.
Is that your foot in the picture Jimbo?

Its not him either,.

And David Parkes isn't on "that" trip, he was staying at a resort.

I did a fair bit of that on my first surf when I didn't think about the fact I had warm water wax on.

Anyway, speaking of kneeling ... not the Chinese girl Ne Ling, but the act of.

Here's a discussion with David Elfick and Garth Murphy on the making of Chrystal Voyager.

I reckon 4 regular kneels here. One very good.

You're around Avoca, hey ... there's two exceptional kneeboarders live around there.

One named Kyle?
