those waves
the nose riding
and the cross stepping
Particularly the last as he makes it look like dancing compared to my short board inflenced shuffle
wow - that looked like a lot of fun......can not wait to get back there one day soon....that place is just heaven. Thanks for posting.
Wow awesome...watched it about half a dozen times..
Trying to work out how I can get away from work and head up that way before the end of the week before the swell peters out....
just watched it again....aahhhhh seems miles away from here this morning - stuck on the 8th floor of an old office block at the Uni steering out over the new buildings been built....its miserable - light rain and an onshore wind - definitely a work day today sadly....Nossa is one of my fav spots in Australia - remember my first trip there around Easter 2000 or 2001 and we lucked into a boomer of a swell.....had it at 1.5 overhead for 4 days straight out at TT.......thought it was just normal like Raglan ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! Never seen anything close to resembling those waves the last 5 times I have been there.....still hoping that one day I will get it like that again. Although I do recall the car park being full at 5am and the number of people at Nationals was out of control. Was a great roadie that one - we surfed Kirra on the way back at 4 ft - best surf I have ever had...........absolute heaven the 1.5 hrs I had out there that day. We paddled out just as a shift change was occurring and lucked into what could only be termed as uncrowded perfection. Still the best waves I have ever surfed in my life. Will try and dig up some photos.....
One of the best stories about Kirra I read was about Luke Egan's dad not wanting to go out because of the crowd. Luke said dont worry about it just wait to I am on a wave and go. Now thats looking after your old man.
Seen Snapper Board riders comp at crowded snapper with the older guys whistling in the groms competing to drop in on them to make sure those competing got waves.
One of the Jack McCoy films has some great Kirra footgage including the comp if I remember rightly. My copy seems to have disappeared so cant remember which one.
Great vid, great photos, gret post Jas.
That vid should be in the text book on how to ride a log, great feet position, doesn't miss step, and that run to the nose is so well measured, doesn't miss step on the way up or back
How'd did your better half go on the Tak?
