Pup I have to say....his board was a POS. Quite possibly the worse board I have seen him own
Didn't slow him down though

Today I had delicious sliders on my CLEARWATER, glassy,warm water and a bucket off fun

Glad some of you are getting some. I had a nice w/e but this week its all work, staying in Sydney Thurs n Friday night (do not surf down there these days - too hectic), surf looks poor for the w/e and then I am between Newcastle, west Sydney and Wollongong all next week for meetings with limited surf opportunities plus the ladies birthday to deal with. Looks like no surf for a long long time Please get some for me. I will make it up the following week. Can not complain though - a mate cut his middle finger off last night and was just coming out of surgery when I called him this evening ahhhhhhh.

Fark it was good to get back in the water this morning - not perfect but scored nicely ... funny thing was the up to shoulder highs were the go , anything larger just broke down & cleaned up the flotsam (and there was a few of them fools sadly)

Thankyou Hughie I am grateful

Yeah was nice today, I opted to get away from the flotsam a few reefs further down. Some nice head high rights coming through for my neighbour & I. Surprised we had it to ourselves coz everywhere else was busy.....the new fins are awesome, plenty of drive, tight turning circle (for a LB), yet they have a good amount of release when your landing a floater. I faceplanted my first cross step, but managed to get a few steps in after a few goes & then a final shuffle onto the nose or close to it anyway. Its so much harder than people make it look & I need to get out of my bad habit of shuffling

Newcastle.... You should get a new board

If you have time when you're up here let me know and you can have the BGB if you can fit it in your car.

Well not today but maybe a couple of days ago at Roberts Road.
First looked at town beach in dark.....looked ngarly....drove up to mak (absolutely gigantic)
.....then Sponge Bay the rock....big and unpredictable and the person I was with started bleating about unpredictability and board snapping lol
finally to Roberts road.....the last time I surfed this giz break was maybe over 40 years ago......but this day had ab fab waves mixed up with close outs........plus an absurdly punishing washing machine shore break.....will never look at Roberts road the same way again lol

Well went out at the alley at 3. Very small but here,s the thing. I don't even need to get the good ones on a very small day because my hot log make average waves good.

Its my secret to getting lots of waves- the hotlog makes average waves good

Mmm just been frothing in tropical surf for a few weeks, back now to wettie and booties, gotta love surfing in boardies, they are a good way to stop the ageing process as you instantly feel loose, you blokes up north are lucky buggers....

ockanui - I saw yr post in the other room and I was immediately envious Glad you had a good time.

Finally racked a surf up this arvo - 3ft with clean faces 3 others out in a terrible wind swell. Lots of waves coming through but very hard to find the good ones - if you were lucky you got a lot or if you were like me you were always just missing them - was off my game. Never mind good to get out there after not surfing since last Sunday. Managed to get a puncture as well - was fun changing it in the rain after my surf I think today might have been my last surf in the spring suit until Winter passes me by. Not bad making it through till June this year.

Got to surf some uncrowded beaches on my short board which was excellent because I got the chance to do some tiding up on my SB form. A couple of hangovers from 666ing. To much front foot pressure from the start and while I was rotating I was doing the cardinal sin and dropping my shoulder.
Still pretty happy with that one and I'm going to get back on my skatie and do the systems technique I was shown but haven't bother to do for a long time

Ted the nano is a keeper such a good board when the power and size is ordinary.

Looking like I'm going to get a Campbell bros twinnie. Love twinnies and they make a beautie. Very interesting channel in front of the fins double concave set up Google it fr a look

A mate turned up with one the other day and I was so jealous !! They look awesome in the flesh and exactly what I am after. I really really want one. But its not going to happen in the next few weeks sadly.

Interesting that you like them in small gutless waves - how much do you put that down to the volume you are riding?

Hey LL

Here is a good reason to have your nano and not your 666 - no way you would have got inside that one on a 666

i did surf the 5'10- much the same thing- speed and projection. if i had my time again the 5'10. sure that volume doesn't hurt. did go good in the bigger waves too .

must admit today the 6' er with the litres was a winner
