Edge of the World on a Bloody Great Friday

Well it can't get any better than this .......BOL is like a drug, you try it once and you're totally addicted and we can only thank Jonny Pott for dragging us out there four years ago.

Jason took these pics last Friday, thanks mate, Nick and I were too bloody selfish to get out of the water to use the camera .

Consistant wind 74L board, 4.7m sail and cranking.....in the water 11.30am and out 4.00pm....swell slowly building through the day.........really has to be 3/4 mast (4M swell) to work, which it did but still would have been better with another metre thrown on top... 5-6 would be perfect....maybe next time

1st couple of pics shows nick sailing out through the channel, not that different to sailing Dorans on a big day......scream out the back pick up the "last" big wave of the set and crank it down the line....if you're like me and bugger up you can get slightly touched up but you always end up back in the channel....even an ole fart like me can handle that

Great photo's. Those waves look perfect for me, don't like it too big. One day I'll get up there again with you guys. Too busy renovating at the moment, once we get it all done, look out!
You looked like a pro out there Ant, it's your little special place.

Yeah thanks Jason you took some great shots, next time we'll have a camera roster running.
Interesting seeing yourself on camera, I can see I'm leaning back too far and stalling the board, got to get forward more and drop the sail going into the bottom turn........it was bloody good fun though, I was pumped

Well done mate for getting back out there. Especially getting Jason to Marrawah!
I miss that place! BOL takes balls and dedication to do! Its nasty and consequences can be serious. I received the biggest working of my life at that place....

I still think we need to blow up that end bit of the reef or at least knock the top of it. Like everywhere it can be fickle to score at times. Here is a picture of Ant eating it on that end section..... haha

Some more photos of Houston going off.

Wally I think you had a major outbreak when you played with your gooleys

Pottssy, any chance you you sending me on CD a high def of me getting trashed at Bol

What's that brown stuff coming out of Ants behind?

I will upload to ftp and email you the address mate. Its way to big.

Kazza that's not brown stuff stickin out my ar... it's the kelp I picked up when I hit the reef

Kazza, sounds crazy I know but the bigger the wave the easier it is to ride...got more time to set yourself up and get into the rythm.
Down south where the waves build up and close out quickly it's hard to line your self up fast enough to get the turns in.........and the big plus it gives you a bigger rush than a good snort of cocaine.....not that I have ever tried it

Nice photos that must of hurt being crushed like that looked like u got a nice ride on that last pic Ant Were you using your 6.6m last week up at Marrawah looks like it in the pics unless u have a look alike

Cool thanx mate i will pick them up when its windy
