I enjoyed, great cruising, but I was thinking maybe some cutbacks and what not

Sure I saw some big radius cutties in there somewhere.

17' Glides surfing at Bells Beach.

Very nice. I might give my 14 ft glide a go in the surf. Loved the music...Santana's cover of Whilst my guitar gently weeps...awesome.

Has anybody tried to catch some bow waves from the large boats that enter Port Phillip Bay? You could just sit on the edge of the shipping lane, so to not annoy the nanny state. I've seen them do it in the Gulf of Mexico. Might be a chance on the 17 ft Glide after watching the video, you don't need much of a bump to get moving.

na dont need to ring anyone just have to wear hi vis clothing and tie flares to the board,

i was the only one out there, in a sense if it was breaking properly and people were surfing there i would be out there on my surf sup not my glide, sorta like the right board for the right conditions sorta thing

My buddy reports riding bow waves inshore around McRae on an 11'4 Nalu. Ships come in pretty close in that part of south channel. I imagine there could be some good fun on a 17...

Might have to check the shipping timetable and give it a try one day.
