Gotta tell ya mac - at the moment I am ripping mate, some of the best sup surfing never seen in this state

Will get some piccies on the weekend - it's absolutely stunning down the surf coast - amazing seascapes and deserted beaches/dunes/waterways to explore. I paddled down at a place called Dodges Ferry today and it was a really nice change being out on such a pristine waterway with no supolution everywhere - in the hour and a half I was out paddling I saw 2 little tinnies out fishing and that was it, and it was a beautiful sunny day (really sunny - shorts n tee only)

Get used to it Bill , have had locals tell me I shouldn't be in the water when no one else is around . Trouble here that would mean I never got to get in the water ,especially in the winter

Got a couple of 1-1.5 footers today on the old Mal off midpoint . might have to venture down your way if the disapointing surf here continues

Tassieman there's a picture of this place at 1.5 foot and one guy on a log killing it.

TassieD - mate more than happy out on my own if its small but shlt happens all too easy on a sup when the surf has some bite in it so Im happy to hit the flatwater when Im a bit iffy about a solo surf.

Hey Pup - yep, all good mate - got some wonderful new things happening in my life and just lucky that tassie is home for me, so its all kinda falling into place for a change.

Mac - gunna get a mal cos I'll happily venture out on a mal in surf that may intimidate me on the sup. Really nice big and fat and cold mal waves everywhere.

I wasn't killing it Mac .had to get in pretty close to get a wave so I was too busy dodging rocks. Bit of a tightarse hate breaking fins or dinging boards

But your right have seen others having great fun on big longboards and SUPs on the small waves . At leat on the LB I get to get out and have a go .

Had my first surf with the breeze crew today (spencer, riverider)
Kinda surreal paddling into my first wave and hearing "go BB"
Beautiful clean and glassy 2ft and a big crew out, but nice vibe in the water and a really stunning spot.
Thanks for the very warm welcome guys.

very happy for you Bill too many dic. pullers on this site stick to the real people who say it as it is all best mate

Went out today for an hour and a half in the surf . After that got out with completely numb toes with booties on . How did you manage to stay out with no booties on . Young girl next to me had no gloves on and her hands were literally blue .

I had booties on but still got cold feet . Riverider wasnt wearing any - buggered if I know how they do it. I think I fell in twice and it wasnt too bad in really (well not in a sealed 3/2)

Probably no surprise BB , solid ice aint that far south of tassie!

Yeah mate I got a wake up call when I went into town and there was a bigarst ice breaker "aurora australis" tied up at the wharf. Im buggered if I'd go to antarctica on it - it musta been more seaworthy than it looked I suppose !

I suppose they take it for granted here but I dont see a lot of huge fluoro orange ice breakers on the goldy.

well the old girl herself would melt if she came over here , when I was over a while back I thought it was chilly on the GC & Brissie

hey bill

got news for you, its going to get alot colder yet, you will need at least a 4/3 or a 5/3, and a vest with hood attached to stop the icecream headaches, the local surfshop in hobart has a deal on where the will match any deal you can find on the internet, looks like the have a new customer.
