hi my name is alex im nelly 18 and moving 2 nimbin. can any one help us out with some spots to kite at and maby show us around the area a bit.
thanksssssss
Nimbin is a cesspool of meth heads now mate, I wouldn't be going to live there if you want to get in touch with your 'hippie' side. It's certainly not the place it used to be five years ago, unfortunately.
Although I think the closest kiteable beach would be Byron Bay.
Nimbin is a fair way from the beach.. (you got transport? you'll need it) Good luck man and don't go near the datura.
I was just about to go kiting.....then I got high!
I was just about to go surfing....but I got high!
Then I got high, then I got high, then I got high!
Nimbin.....nah ..move to Currumbin.....sounds kinda the same....but a sp!t load more spots to kite.
Alex .... keep an eye out for this other recent escapee from the TRIPPLE ....then run like hell mate.....she's not the sought of KB you need bro ....but she keeps on askin about you ..... enjoy your new home
and get over to Lennox as often as you can .... its a top spot..

and THANKS FOR THE APOLOGY
poor guy is moving with his parents, he's got no choice in the matter. We'll see ya when you get back to Sydney Alex. Nice riding the other day too.
Hey Alex, it seems I jumped to some unwarranted conclusions about your reasons for heading North, and perhaps when you get to Nimbin that will make sense. There was no offense intended, I've just seen quite a few folk, young and old, head up that way and waste their lives away and I'd hate for an active kiter to be one of them. From Foxy's post it seems you've got some constructive things to do when you're there, and yes, there are some beautiful beaches too.
Seems like you'll be leaving some good buddies behind at Kurnell. They're sure looking out for you here. The North coast is a diverse place and I'm sure you'll make a bunch of friends including kiters.
@Foxy, your post sort of reinforces my point about education. The clear information that you (and Jeff) provided allowed me to respond differently. An ability to provide and to grasp clear information is a fundamental and enriching life skill.
you jumped to plenty of unwarranted coclusions there dojo; about alex, the north coast, and the relevance of the colour of someone's collar to their prospects.
courtesy is an education you obviously missed while you were at school learning to spell.
okay, maybe i read a bit too much between the lines there. it just sounded as if you were suggesting that unless he finished school the only option here is to go and the dole and smoke ganja.....
alex, as has been said you are about an hour from the beach. i work randomly, based on the wind, and am always keen to do downwinders, so PM your number if you can get to brunswick heads area to kite
There was no offense intended,
Call me a nit picker, but I believe the correct spelling is "offence", according to mr Collins anyway Having said that, I admire your style dude, and enjoy your posts. Keep em comin !
Call me a righteous prat (go on, you're already thinking it), but I believe that either spelling is correct. However your choice may indicate a proclivity for either British or American conventions, but only a nit-picker like me would notice that, let alone read anything into it.
A bit of levity at last, hallelujah!
Before we jump on the DJ bashing bandwagon, and in his defence, there seem to be a myriad of youngsters arriving on seabreeze who have the spelling ability of a 10 year old. Their mix of SMS spelling used on public forums is atrocious. Web browsers these days have built in spell checks so there are no excuses. If you write a question that includes words like "nelly" and "mabe", can you honestly expect not to get back a sarcastic or abusive answer on spelling? I've seen plenty before so I don't see why this should be special. Whilst DJ's actions are judgmental, its not the first time anyone here has been judgmental and hey, first impressions last.
I've received more job applications than I can count with cover sheets that include SMS style spelling and I point blank refuse to even consider a Gen Y candidate who couldn't even be bothered to learn a basic command of the english language, especially when we live in a country where education is available free to everyone. There are 3rd world countries where education is a luxury and these people have learnt a better command of the english language.
Thats my two cents, abuse away.
The kurnell crew named themselfs the kkk,
with an attiude like that,would you think they were educated??
Get to nimbin as quick as you can if you ask me
Before the rednecks rub off on you.
Man what a load of cr@p... There is nothing sketchy about the north coast, I grew up there and look how I turned out.
STRUTH ... this thread sure turned into a BIG WANK .... LETS GET ONE THING CLEAR....Alex was seeking info about kiting locations up north ....he got a bit of tongue in cheek stuff from some razzmen....good sh!t ....then a flamer nailed him for some spelling issues....and the flamer made some boofhead assumptions about lifestyle motives etc. ....this was just a result of a university education overuling common sense .... thats all OK as Alex really didn't give a hoot about that ...
HOWEVER ....the Kurnell rednecks ARE offended by certain references about buckling to pressure on this forum to change our name .... SORRY .... didn't happen .....i've been using " The Tripple " just to demonstrate how easy it is to alter perceptions , however, the reality is this.....WE are the KKK...we remain the KKK and we will always be the KKK ..... just ask the Galah ( modman ) ...even the Galah continues to use KKK as our description ... ( search his threads... ) ( and no sneaking in there Galah using your modman ability to edit out the KKK from your posts )
NOW ...JUST INCASE SOMEONE WANTS TO ELEVATE THIS P!SS TAKE INTO SOMETHING....PLEASE DON'T .... it is after all just that ....an Aussie p!ss take ....[}:)][}:)] and for those who are offended .... oh well ....as Ned said " such is life "
