No he didn't JB he started to paddle away until Matt gave it to him,all he said was he was waiting for ages for a wave,Matt said so the only way you figured was to drop in,you should not be out here its above your ability.He will get his JB.

Red board single fin hipster with unusual stance ,was watching him the last big swell at Burleigh cove, dropped in on a few , got dropped in on by a few... the banks were good , some long rides double tubes going down.. 11 stitches f...ked board , you'd want some form of compensation....




A 100 kg guy around 30,local on white single,know him?



If he's a local he'll be back. Hopefully he'll be happy to help in some way.... if not replicate the destruction on his stick

I dunno......the "look at me look at meeeee" contest scene not really my cup of tea. Also don't like rugby or cricket.
Quite nice small waves at town beach this morning......towball just wouldn't do it
excuses were "its too small" "I can't be bothered" "I'm going home" "I'll just go to work early"

The only reason you kicked my arse was because you were on a 33 inch wide table top and I was on a 29 inch wide curvy bottom one with quite a lot of rocker!!!! But yep.......you were the winner
The swap meet looked quite colourful. Didn't get there myself....this off the f/bk page

And Jack is nearly back......his excuse for his absence is that he was trying to find a way to carry his board on top of his BMW convertible......is it a Z3?

Surely he would get rocks thrown at him if he pulled up like that?

That old Bonga Perkins SUP that he uses as a longboard is looking a bit shabby......but fear not !!! Have sold him my starboard 10'3 gun.
I actually think its probably a very good "big person" surfboard

Mind you when I think about it he did glue carpet on the Bonga for a deck pad so I shouldn't be surprized

There are probably quite a few "larger" people that want to surf who will never find a good fit with a short board because of their weight....or with an average mal because of their weight. Some of the narrower sup shapes are probably a potential good option ?

Yeah bad luck indeed...

Mac just the usual **** driving you see these days. old love wasn't looking,I was stopped at the lights and she drove into me.

I saw the moment in my rear view when she saw me. But too late.

Car is a bit messed up boot all smashed in but **** happens eh.

Feels nearly as bad as dinging a new board...
