actually he paddled in front of me trying to get around the wave.I love how people makes assumptions on situations that can't be fully detailed in print oh well

Well ok my bad if it makes you feel any better mate ...pretty common scenario though, especially at my local that gets a lot of LB's & 666. So I can sympathise...

I noticed this and thought it was relevant to the leg rope debate

Hipster 101:
1) The ultimate hipster coffee to order?
A Piccolochino with Dolphin Milk ... Or if you just want to get your heart started, then hit up a Quintupple Espresso. That’s five shots, a.k.a “population crack”.

2) Word of the moment?
Cray. Or some variation of cray. Craymazing. Fifty Shades of Cray. Crayola. Cray Pot. It’s always good to put a shortened word inside something. Redic is okay. Chronicles of Redic is craymaze.

3) Most hipster fashion accessory?
Something made out of something that’s practical. A headband made out of a seatbelt, or sandals made out of old mobile phones.

4) Beanies or fedoras?
Fedoras are all the rage. Because wizards.

5) Hottest trend at the moment?
Normcore. That’s basically this new fashion trend where the worse you look the more fashionable you are. Also a fridge juice detox, you drink the juices from the bottom of your fridge as a way of staying lean.

6) The most ‘scene’ location right now?
Mollymook. It’s where they send all the models when they want a photoshoot to look like it’s in some exotic international beachside location.

7) The most hipster thing to do?
Throwing your own art-based event to “raise awareness” for something.

8) Skateboards or fixies?
Those shoes that kids wear, with the little wheels on the heels.

9) What is the ideal beard length?
What about dudes who can’t grow a decent beard?Three fingers. If you can’t grow a beard, then find a fashion blogger, make them cry, and apply their tears to your chin. It’s the secret cure to everything — tears of a fashion blogger.

10) One sign that you’re a female hipster?
You wear designer clothes but your hair and make up looks like you just spent the last three weeks living on the street.

11) No. 1 tip for hipster wannabes?
Stop giving a **. Give literally zero **s.

12) What’s the common misconception people have about hipsters?
That they are intelligent.

13) The one place you really can’t go sans shoes?
Anywhere with Ebola.

Novice falls off 9 foot surfboard relying on 9 foot legrope to save a swim. Board flung by the wave, swings around madly in the whitewater. That board has a possible arc of swing of 25 feet ; 9+9+2foot ( legrope stretch )+5 foot (body stretched out ). Person falls and or, jumps off 30 times in a 3 hour session ( obvious learner ). Swing a board through an arc of 25 feet out in the surf and if you do not hit somebody you have been dead lucky, or unlucky depending on your intentions Experienced surfer in 10 surfs, falls off 10 times, board get away once,and he or she ( not wearing a legrope ) has to chase the board. Who is more dangerous? If you can't say, go and watch, you will soon find out.

spot on! its about respect for other water users.

BigSpazz, while i agree that a beginner with a leash is more dangerous than an experienced rider without one. an experienced rider with a leash is even safer.

if you care more about how pleasurable it is to not wear a leash. than about the safety of others.. thats not cool
