5 weeks of self imposed isolation was taking its toll on my now, 72 year old body, so, back on board!
Our beaches were never closed to surf or paddle, I simply did what I felt was right.

My body thanks me for getting back at it.... as you can see, no distancing issues here

Hey Rick, I want to Google earth where you paddle.
What is the name of your area?

Checking the waterfalls....

Safety Beach today to try to avoid most of the wind and beat my 5k time.

My regular Smik ride is having some treatment whilst my girl is home, keeping her busy.


The southerly normally knocks our local flat but the hound needed a walk, so I thought I'd take a board to the point to see what I could see. But which board. Over on another wall gathering dust was a board I've never had the heart to sell. My 8'0" minion. Hmmmmm.....I wonder. The beach was pretty much closing out all the way along, but the point was peeling. I sat out wide as the sand in the middle was making it stand up and close out on most as they took off. I took off after that point, and had an absolute ball for about 2 hours.


I'd forgotten how much fun this little skateboard was, left me frothin' and grinning like a cheshire cat.

Sunshine Coast at it's finest water temp 24 degrees

My Martha today, bit chilly but lots of sun!

Dave, remind me the width of that board,23 or 25? How are you finding it.

27 and loving it. It suits my level and balance although it has improved with the Indo Board if I use it every second day for about an hour. Maybe one day I could go narrower but have no real desire to do so, I am competitive but someone is always faster.

Same coordinates.
Brilliant.

Good on you STC. A few more of those videos would be good.
