Not sure about you da curls but for me I think legends has a nice ring to it sounds much better than old farts.
I have entered, hope I can make it back, might get 'stuck' somewhere North.

The directions on the flyer might be a bit confusing, ya can't (legally) use Beacon Rooad through the bombing range anymore, best stick to Indian Ocean Drive and take the sealed road down into Wedge.

Sure did didn't it well powered on a 7, and by late arvo I was wishing I had taken my 5 with me, what a great first outing for my new board.



Was like a scene out of mad max or something though 4b's, buggy's, quads, bikes everywhere.

We were on the point by Wedge "town". I was testing a new board too. My first ever strapless session and it was awesome.

I hope that forecast improves over the next couple of days. Looks pretty bad at the moment.

yeah looks shocking at the moment, best leave it till next weekend,

^^ and i'd say more points for the amount of skill required, say strapless unhooked will score higher than stapped hooked etc
done a few before that was agression, power, style, skill etc im happy i can do all catergories so see which they want on the day

I think a 5 sec clean deep barrel followed by a few big roundhouse reo's with fins out of the lip followed by a massive punt (with some new age move) landing back onto the same wave, should do it. more points for best looking style
