Hi there,
I have been surfing for almost two years now, taking lessons or solo. I am riding a longboard, most of the time in Wanda, but I am open to any spot as I have a car. I would be awesome if I can find a surf buddy to improve my surfing skills and help to motivate in rainy days.

Corsu, welcome.

If you're ever on the Northeren Beaches, drop me a line. Don't often get to Wanda, although I hear it's pretty decent for a longboard.

Chrispy is right, say g'day to people you meet in the surf, eventually you'll find a few who you get on with and exchange details so you can hook up weekends etc.

No dog walking tomorrow morning MR, so I'll be down there early.

I'll send you a text if I find something decent and maybe I can have a second sesh when you and Brad get there.

Yes, welcome to the breeze.

The more you surf, the better you get, and then the more you surf... It's a viscous spiral! (UP!)

And just watch some other good longboarders... Plus, watch some good longboard movies... Speaking of which, there was a movie doing the rounds... think it got lost in the mail...

spending a lot of time at one break is not a bad thing.

You get to know the locals, and they get to know you.

Without any effort at all, you eventually become a nodding acquaintance, that then leads to a greeting, that then leads to a discussion about the weather the wave the other guys in the water, your grandmothers lumbago, etc.

It may take a couple of years, but it always happens.

I cant. Well I can Aus Post can't.

Mac the one Chrispy is talking about was a replacement one I sent up, it wasn't "sewn", I couldn't get a replacement one sent over. The one I sent was 'sight and sound". If its dissappeared let me know I have another version of it I'll copy and send up.

ok so does someone want to BORROW ( to receive something from somebody temporarily, expecting to return it) my copy of SEWN? I need it back by Christmas as I have a mate over from the UK who is looking forward to watching it.

PM the address details and I will send it tom.

I have to say that you guys over here in the longboard room are a friendly bunch. I'm pretty sure if a newby in the short board room asked for some company he'd get a different response unfortunately.

Keep up the good vibe guys
