We had 4 foot sets here not long ago

how can you forget to declare overseas earnings of over $400000? you don't, not even $400. forgetting has nothing to do with it. seriously,we're not talking about a bit of cash for labouring now and then here. it's just those that think they're above the rest of us that do and they do end up gettin...

Yeah I dont think theres any better fin then the H2 for a short board. I'd go with H2 smalls even though theres something like half a mm in differnce between smalls and medium but apparently it makes a massive difference... Or maybe the K-Fin for a cheaper option coz H2s are bloody expensive but wel...

We had a 4 metre white pointer come up to a guy at a break down here in SA on Sunday then another 4 metre white pointer come up and make physical contact with a guy Monday morning. All at pretty popular breaks

what the hell???

Home break: Middleton Point + Suicides
Favourite break: Cactus, Granites, Winkipop & The Trough (On a nice summers day)

Why not just come here and surf somewhere like Kangaroo Island

My mate dinged my board a fair while ago and I filled it with wax but then after someone told me your not meant to do it because the shapers dont like it but then I was told that they just cut the entire thing out so it doesnt make any difference. Whats right?

Sweet thanks for all the info guys I mostly want it just for a bit of fun and to have a bit of a retro feel to my quiver

Ok sweet thanks that gives me a bit of an idea of what im in for. It looks like it would be a pretty sweet board to take out on the crappy days. I read somewhere that you can fix up your surfing by surfing a single fin so hopefully I can fix up a fin or something Thanks once again Ric

This is a problem that I should probally just PM Ric straight off but some other people may own Single Fins. Down at our shack I found this really old board and its got this massive swallow tail and it looks as if its meant to have one fin as it has the slot but no fin. I'll try get some pictures ne...
