For Gold Coast based 'breezers and visitors, we are having a big weekend at Board Culture at Mermaid Beach. Members from Burleigh and Narrowneck clubs have been invited to come along, but don't let that deter you from showing up!

On Saturday 25th Feb from 9am there will be a sausage sizzle put on by Burleigh Longboard Club. This is part of the club's annual fundraiser to promote awareness of its long running Anzac Day contest. You will also be able to buy raffle tickets to win a new board or $500 in cash.

For the kids there will be snakes and crocodiles (no, not Mac) to keep them enthralled courtesy of Wild Rangers wildlife encounters.

And for the surfers, there will be heaps of bargains on new and used surfboards, bodyboards, skateboards, clothing and accessories (and that was the shameless plug part). So come along, grab a coffee or cold drink and a snag and catch up with fellow longboarders/shortboarders. And we will be live streaming some contest that is apparently on at Snapper. - Mark

Hey Mac, enjoy Byron while some of us have to work! The BBQ will go to mid 'arvo sometime - depending on volunteers and how well our snags & bread supplies last. i can save you a shrivelled up cold one

Just use your permanent VIP pass
As for parking, while your instore i'll get one of the boys to take it for a cruise up along the Surfers strip and see what he can pick up for you - hopefully the national womens lawn bowls titles are still on here - guess we can hose it out for you later

And if this rain keeps up we will have the BLC club tent set up out front for the bbq to keep you dry

8.30am and a beautiful sunny day here.....about time!!! This is probably the 3rd Saturday all summer when the sun has come out to play. Shame its only 1ft with the occasional bigger one.

Hope the BBQ goes well Mark.

Just spoke to my wife whos in Sydney and she said it was a nice morning down there.

Chrispy bailed on our Byron trip so look out Mark I'm coming to eat up big

That wife of yours Mac gets away a far bit.....no wonder you can get a few new boards a year - you treat her well!

Been watching the Quiky pro streamed thru to the TV - looks like tough conditions but they make it look a lot easier than it is I am sure. Weather still looks a bit rubbish. Hope it clears up for ya's. Good to see some sand back on the point for you local types.

I am off out for the night to a head wetting - I will do my best not to drink and type when I get home - but no promises.

Popped into Board Culture after my big day out and it was all over
However,I had a surf at Rainbow then a look at the Quickie Pro then Bumped
into the man Bob at Kirra Surf and chatted for a hour or so.

Second Photo is LM on high tide for those who don't know

You could look at this all day !






And this !
