This was an extremely strong motivating factor behind top surfers from PT through to my brother and many others. They were sick of feeling like they were social outsiders. For many surfers, for most surfers I would hazard a guess, that feeling is long since gone. I don't know if this is good (ie "o...

1 or 2 pieces of fruit in car on the way. Glass of warm water or herbal tea. Chanting "om mani padme hum" until first wave. After surfing, tofu or vegetables or more fruit, more water. For a treat I might have a carob covered licorice stick. :D Just a thought, are there many other surfers up with Bu...

I agree with Maxi. Its not Ben Matson or his website Swellnet's fault. They are just supplying what the masses want. Not everyone surfing lives on campbell parade, on the hill at kirra or on the corso at manly. The surf is crowded because Billabong, Rip Curl and other companies have cashed their che...

plan b is fine to post these shots and to draw people a map if required.

This article is total BS. This is a complete fluff filler. These guys are from Pfizer.

What a read fb. Guilty or not. I really feel that koby has been stitched up through a couple of things 1. Never piss off the cops. They have long memories and will pole axe you eventually. 2. Tracks Magazine. Cover reads "Beat charges goes surfing" Ben Mondy and his crew have exaserbated the cops vs...

I used to work in the restaurant bar at the Cauldron in Sydney during the early 90's. At the time it was still owned by Charles B and Gary Cameron. Interesting place as you would get a reasonable non infectious stray most nights and the coca cola flowed pure white. Anyway, I met penthouse pets like ...

The sentence of 20 years was a bit tough given the evidence, the court process and if she was tried here it would be around 2 years max. But punishing an entire nation of genuinely hospitable balo's is really unfair. The Australian media are Cucking Funts for pushing this issue so hard. Indonesia ri...

I agree with ya phil - I just spend 3 hours in the water at the superbank today. 12noon to 3pm. It was pretty dredgy on low tide so I surfed the greenmount takeoff point as there was about 5 million guys pitching, snaking and dropping in on themselves from behind the rock at snapper. Actually I reck...

After 25 years of surfing on wax only i finally put a tailpad on my new dalhberg 2 weeks ago.

I bought a palmers tailpad. "nathan hedge model".

Unbelievable to think I lived without the extra grip for so long.

I will never go back to just wax.
