Forgive me Prez for i have sinned, it has been too long since my last confessional...
but i just bought a

6'0....

so its 6 x 21 x 2 5/8 wide tailed quad... tints, polished finish...

photos to come when i pick it up..

and


picked up a magazine / book called paper sea, comes out quarterly, havent had a good flick yet but 200 odd pages of what look like good stuff.

$15 from your local newsagent, keep an eye out for it, it is not magazine size but more of a book size. the website is below,
www.papersea.com.au/


ok so for those that are wondering... i didnt like the first topic, no one replied so i have changed it..

Whats going on with your Avatars... Maddog
Pups a soft touck for handmade Australian products, and it isnt an ordinary white 6' o. i'll get off with a slap on the wrist and a six pack fine, if not ill get Grahams lawyer, oh hang on he was **** How good is that blokes nick name BUPA, cause he is the unhealthy version of Aiden Tolman.

Hows your Boyfriends board going? Kiana

Yeah the prints look alright, they always send me **** on fb, some of it looks good. the photos are really good.

There are some interesting articles too... the strangest IMO Fireproof plants that was a bit different but the images are great hopefully they do a nice glossy version oneday, maybe a yearly one would be good in glossy colour.

New board sounds cool SP. Short fat quads seem to be the go ATM.

Whats the delivery time like on it? When I was looking for the new board all the local shapers were like about 3-4 weeks. I was in a hurry so I got one off the racks. Looks like its going to be pretty busy in the surf this summer around here.

And what happened to the "Insert face here" avatar. That was my favourite.

The Avatar.... Was supposedly not in good taste and was removed by the mods...

Boards Not new, shop guys board, has a small depression where you stand but no other marks. Wait for a new one was 4 weeks... ish... I knew I wasn't going to surf for a few weeks so I just left a deposit and said I'd be back on payday.. But yeah most places around town are 4 plus even a few of the smaller guys have lots of orders.

And yep always busy around town in summer, crowd tripples, the earlier the better is the only way to beat them. Or there are a few spots out of town where you can get away from people.

Couldnt take any more was too windy, damn thing nearly got blown across the water, but a good catch by me averted any dings .

Snapped this one quickly on my phone, it is a crappy photo and wedged against the log so it didnt blow away.

I will get some more later.

Maxing out.... Maybe early but I didn't get there till late, after lunch late, had backed off a bit. I actually rode the LB, cause it was very crowded so yet to pop it's cherry and Saturday I was flat out all day

But looked a lot better down your way than up here over the weekend, we still are suffering from a lack of banks and the swell didn't seem as big up here Saturday as your photos.

Have you ridden it? Did you leave the nub fin in?


Yeah the stringer is a bit different, has a green coloured foam in the middle.

Yeah I saw that the thread had vanished.....not sure why? Sure he was advertising but at least he had paid his $14 to Laurie - unlike others

Yeah I have wanted one of Ron's boards for a while.....If I can get it for a reasonable amount I will stay in it.....I have set a max bid so we shall see. Its the thing I hate about ebay the most - having to wait!!! Sometimes you just want to hit a buy it now price!

Shame abt the w/e for you.....I stayed in Dee Why Sat night and when I got home on Sunday late morning could get over how much bigger it was at home than down that way. The swell was just marching straight in. So was the crowd though with only one decent bank at the beach with the surfclub. I hit the water at 5:25 on Sat morning whilst still a bit dark.....had a few rippers - lots of fun. Need to get you down for some waves soon.

Its a Colin Earle, a local shaper just up the road from me, bloody nice bloke.

I rate this board as one of the best shorties Ive had so far for general surfing. I rode it on the weekend at two different beachies and it just went so well I was grinning like an idiot for hours afterwards. The best quad Ive had so far. Its 6,2 1/2 x 19 1/4 x 2 5/16 and yea I left the knubster in, I will need to try it with it out but it was a bit over head so the stability was nice

I've got nothing other than take this SB sh-t to another room

I do like the look of the second board tho OK I get it this is a SB
thread in the LB forum.

Just watched a story on Dave Taylor 120 kgs on the GC news,fk he
rides a shortboard and not too bad at all in small stuff.
