Re:

Surfing Box Head before leg ropes I lost my board and it went all the way into Ocean Beach (it was the biggest I've ever surfed it) and had to swim in. Sharks? Nah there's no sharks around there!

Re: Andy Irons Dies

I feel sorry for AI and his family and his friends. At the end of the day though he was just another celebrity that I didn't know and who's death has no real effect on me. It certainly won't cause me to reflect on life or death. Ive got real tragedies close to home for that. Like the father of one ...

No ... the technique is to just before takeoff throw the obviously enormous nutsack out the back to create drag and hold the tail in ... do not attempt this unless you have huge balls ... :shock:

Re: Andy Irons Dies

See that seems to me like you are way to emotionally invested in things that are of little or no consequence or relation to you. Maybe I'm the odd one out, but there is no way I'm going to cry because a pro surfer dies. Yeah it's a tragedy, but these things happens thousands of times a day around t...

Re: Andy Irons Dies

So sad. Doesn't matter how he went, just a massive shame. One of my fav surfers of all time. Powerful, stylish, and fearless whilst being so casual. His performances at Chopes and Pipe over the years were just mind blowing. If someone can post up the footage of him from Blue horizon of that crazy l...

My first child, a son, was born two weeks ago so the idea of his wife about to give birth under these circumstances strikes me pretty hard. Is that reason enough for you? You don't need to justify it to me. I just couldn't imagine b...
