and looking quit fit,we had a good old chat and he so excited to get back into surfing frothing.I gave his board back I think he could be looking for a new one real soon.He asked about all the beer garden gang and WILL be coming back in here soon.

Chrispy passed on your message and he returned the comment

Your just jealous Mr Red,shame you no longer fit in but hey look in the mirror and ask yourself why

mac nice to see a "sea of green" in the thumbs

if enough are on the ball the stalker can go back to theirt normal like which is who knows.

Maybe it involves a long coat and a bag of sweeties

G'day fellas, so good to be back in the scene, it was great to catch up with mac today, talk about looking fit, he looks 20 years younger!!!! He's inspired me to contemplate hitting the gym myself.

Thanks for the message Chrisp-man, back at ya!

I'm frothing alright it's been 14 months since I've had a paddle & I'm actually a bit nervous, I know I'm going to be a complete noob first time out, not that I was ever any good but it's all about the stoke anyway hey.

Be good to catch up with a few of the crew & hopefully get to meet a few of the new guys, I've certainly got a lot of reading in front of me to catch up with all the goss & find out how many dozens of boards asea's had over the time.

Big thanks to mac for babysitting the big girl, I almost felt guilty taking her off him, she might be headed for a trade in soon anyway.

Anyway it's good to be back, talk soon fellas.

haha good work all round and good to see more new regular posters it keeps things interesting and alive.

Good work Vanders! Welcome back.

20 years younger!? Really! Cool!
Good work Mac!

Mac is doing a Kelly Slater... He's doing some surfing training that doesn't involve surfing!

As long as he hasn't followed the Lance Armstrong training & performance manual.

welcome home mr vanders. so you have done some reading already on here....go the mctavish screwdriver get the crew together and get some salt water on ya mate

welcome home vanders

Vanders, I think the Cruiser would really suit you. It has more rocker than the Redline, so it will actually be easier to ride... in my opinion...

"The Pink Wategoes Board" was an R&D Cruiser board... is in Torquay. Not at my joint!



Mac, guess who's popping in for a surf with me in 2 weeks time?
He frequents Seabreeze... we could almost call him a Greenroom Member.
He frequents the weather/wind/swell reports... He's a top notch shaper...
He's also a great guy to share waves with...
Bob McTavish !! One of Bob's sons lives in Melbourne now.

Thanks for the tip mate, yeah I think I'll go that way, just tossing up between a Cruiser & always had an idea about an 'In The Pink'. But the cruiser's a nose in front atm. Looking forward to mac getting his & his opinion.

Maybe you can sweet talk a good deal out of Bob while he's down there.
