Girly, wanker, f'ckwit little boogey riding turds ... sorry but that is a pretty funny sentence.
Don't get me wrong ... I know a few exponents of the shark biscuit that are quite impressive to watch ... I have respect for all dedicated surfers ... but ... girly, wanker, f'ckwit little boogey riding turds ... is just so funny ... girly, wanker, f'ckwit , little boogey riding turds ... girly, wanker, f'ckwit little boogey riding turds ... Ok I'll stop now ... although the phrase does remind me of revolution.
Are you still here aaronn

hatchy it is the other way around.
the little dears want to create a Flow-rider-style standing wave in the open lagoon mouth, as the pent-up rainwater flushes steadily out to sea.
the standing wave can reach up to two feet in height!! and if you slip off the back, you get washed down the spillway at up to four kilometres per hour.
It's one of those absolutely sensational fun ideas that's guaranteed to bring happiness -- not to mention a warm inner glow -- to your day.
on a pure thrill level, probably up there with riding one of those Razor scooter things round your living room
certainly well worth frightening old people with shovels.

either way, they've made themselves known.

(grimly) I am afraid so.
This whole terrible contretemps -- with surfin getting all fired up and rev flipping him off, and coops defending bodyboard honour, and old people being threatened with shovels -- has all been over something even less exciting than the Munich river standing wave thingo.
I tell ya what, shovel wielding whatever-surfin-called-'em crew, why don't youse just get into it with the shovels? Fight club style. That'd knock the spots off your original scheme for flat day fun. Nothing like beating the shit out of each other to put a zing in your step.

The standing waves occur in nature often.
This one has always fascinated me.
Standing wave inthe St Lawrence Seaway, Montreal.
Remember, this is snowmelt from the Great Lakes and beyond.
ps. ignore the first few seconds of the vid where they are towing behind a boat.

I still don't buy the "official" narrative about 9/11. Oh sure, it happened, fcuk yeah. But who and why and how I'm, not convinced it was what we've been told.

danny .... "they" don't let it out ... you need to wait till there is a combination of excessive rain and high tides with decent size surf and the lagoon will open by it's self, and you need to be standing there ready at the precise time it happens ...
on rare occasions the lagooon is opened by the council but it is done for specific environmental reasons ... however there will be life guards present stopping anyone jumping in for a bit of fun ...
so you need to get up really early and get your mates together and try and dig a channel between the surf and the lagoon before the rangers come and catch you ...
before they got caught these guys I saw were at least 4 feet deep in a 20 metre trench and had another 20 metres to go so you will need to get up pretty early ... plus you will need to fight off hords of disapproving old people ...

"Flushes" is an apt word. If it's any consolation Surfin Turf, the little shits who ride in this water have a pretty good chance of catching some nasty (with any luck fatal) immune-system disease.
The trouble is that in the current small surf conditions opening up the lagoon will create an evil-smelling cesspit along most of the DY-Longie stretch for days. Short-lived cheap thrills for 12-15 louts will be at the expense of polluted surf for the hundreds of legitimate beach-users.
A natural opening during storm swells will flush things out a lot quicker, and hopefully in winter when less people use the beach.

there's a big difference though ... they are not carrying shovels and threatening people ...
Salty ... yes, you are correct ... but they had shovels and were wearing their angry eye's ...
unless someone would like to hijack this thread and turn it into another landscaping discussion ... this thread should end here ...

Surfinturf is possibly the wittiest dude on the whole internet. I hope one day I can be as cutting and original as he is.
To be honest, while I don't think it's really worth the digging, a 2ft standing wave on a flat day would be pretty damn fun.
