To the vibe killer- got some alright waves. Actually they shaped up nice. Could have surfed other boards.

Alley.noserider.
Something gt said last week got me thinking about nriding.
Rather moving up the board think of it was pulling the nose back to you with your feet
Works I believe

You need to try my Electraglide but the thought of traveling over your way with it doesn't excite me .

Speaking of new toys...bought this lightly used Vflex Outer Islands last week.
From the moment I started paddling it I knew it was going to be good and the first waves confirmed it.
It's (at best guess) a smart board model but in big boys dimensions. 6'8" X 21&1/2 X 2&7/8".
Floats me at 88kgs to my belly button. Silky smooth as a relaxed rider.
Paddles like a dream around the line up and gets into waves smoothly with early planing ease.
Once up and riding its got excellent speed which is a product of the concave bottom. Likes a steep wall to lock into and I've already had some nice barrels in last weeks swell that it happily came out of.
Easy to do roundhouse cutbacks.
When a fat section presents itself it doesn't mind a step forward to trim across them.
Taking off on my backhand I purposely left it really late on some and with the board almost sideways on the take off the rails would still allow a controlled drop to be taken. Really forgiving just as my fave midlength the Woosley 7'6" vquad is. It's very close to feeling like a shorter version of that.
If there's any longboard crew who'd like to spice things up and ride a shorter board then they couldn't go wrong with one of these.
Here's some pics next to a Firewire 6'8" addvance. The pic angle makes the Outer islands look chunkier but its the other way around with the Firewire feeling much thicker under the arm.
Also nice that it came with the Switch blade quad fins.
Compliments my 6' Lost round nose fish perfectly.
The lost mayhem FireWire fish looks like a weapon mate! How's it ride?
Summers day here I hope it holds up for the weekend and there are some waves to enjoy.

some bloke yesterday said its where you surfed not about tomorrow.
but don't worry about him.
Surfing pfff dial up McTAVISH for sale on gumtree a couple of that blokes ex boards for sale.
Felt so nice to lean into some bottom turns today after the tiny waves I had in Malaysia. Thought I'd never get down with appointments perfectly spaced to fark up my chances of getting down in the morning.
But swell kicked midday by the time I got down & ended up scoring overhead peaks with long walls with 1 other bloke out

Good on you
Good to see someones getting waves Mick-flat as here for the long weekend so its barby,beer,footy and kitesurfing wind swell for me
Must be some strong winds off the coast somewhere. Was really hungover looking this morning even though there hasn't been much wind the last couple of days. Still the odd head & 1/2, but not as consistent as yesterday. Will probably get better while the final is on with the tide drop, but I'll be drinking beer & making 150 gouza...seem to have used up todays energy levels yesterday, I had a sh1t of a surf. Need to get paddle fit again...but the water was bloody beautiful, good to get back in the springy
^^^%^Was pretty fun thurs and fri out front early mick. Tuesday looks pretty nice for your end

i know your being sarcastic....well i hope your not because i saw that place twice today. first was before i headed down the coast,it was not that bad,well small and crowded. Then on the way home it was horrible. I thought main beach was bad. ....... you need to surf more mac if you think that was good 
Just got back from some glassy waist high waves. Stinking hot down here over the last 2 days. First day back in a short john and rashie
surprisingly scored some knee high offshore peelers on the tolhurst single fin good fun but hanging for swell

actually I was umming and arring but it was pretty good first up with some solid walls on the right waves
then it filled in started sectioning out a bit.
I kinda lost interest after jagging some rippers first up
