Just a friendly video reminder to play nice, it's tourist season again

Nice clips fellas.....does anyone have that one of the girls who scare the boys off for surfing their patch - think it was filmed up northern NSW just south of the Tweed there on those beachies....

We get tourists here nearly every weekend being fairly close to Sydney.

we get a lot of tourists at the alley

















and i'm one of them

mmm warm water + dickhead = summer[}:)] no need to worry about tourists

Touche Chrispy, oh how I hate summer crowds.

Winki this morning...

A so called local... roughly 45 years old, proud to boast he's been surfing here for 30 years... he has 2 kids with him, one is his son... Both boys are roughly 11-12, can sort of surf, but both kids are pathetic paddlers...

There's about 6 people at Uppers. A regular Winki surfer light-weight Lady (roughly 25), paddles out, waits 3 minutes and nice little one pops up exactly where she is sitting... naturally she spins around and grabs it... The two kids are scratching on the shoulder after she's already laid a clean bottom turn and she's shooting down the line... it was her wave every day of the week... no question...

45 year old "local" chatter box turns around to everyone and starts ranting... "that's not her wave... she paddles straight out, takes one from the pack... blah, blah, blah"...

I chirped in... "mate she surfs here all the time, knows where to sit, she was on the take-off spot (for that particular wave), it was her wave, and she's done nothing wrong"...

He goes..." blah, blah... she could have given that wave to the kids, they were waiting longer... we always give waves to the kids... blah, blah..."

I go, "the kids weren't even in the right spot for that one... if you have an issue, talk to her about it, not us..."

He didn't have the balls to discuss it with the lady... She was even helping call the kids in later anyway...

Gotta laugh!

Yep mainland terrorists are back in force again , caravans , motorhomes and hire cars lined up down the street .

Good thing here though 90 percent of mainlanders are to scared to go near the ocean because it is too cold for them . so surf still very uncrowded ,

feeling for you blokes on the gold coast

^^^^^just people full stop. the surf was unridable,the water was so unstable with large amounts surging. the flags were about 7 metres apart. it was small yet very harsh. so many people not swimming in the flags. 3 rescues that i had seen. fmd people respect the ocean and learn how to enjoy/survive in it. every person rescued should be charged $1000 on the spot[}:)]

not to mention the tourist teaching themselves to surf,another fmd. the french one was cool

Sepirott, what fin is that in your avatar, looks great...

And I bet you hate tourists, where you live is a magnet for them
