Should have given them a smack in the chops.

Crowds scare me so much. So do big waves, but I hate crowds. I'd rather surf a dirty close-out by myself than be in the position you just described. It's not good. Especially because in my opinion that place can have some seriousness about it.

Haha no I'm not into localism at all. Seen enough ugliness in and out of the water North of Perth to see it does no good and completely destroys the vibe in the water for everyone else. Last time was out with Smicko and it turned what should have been an absolutely perfect session into a mediocre one.

That is true. When I do surf with small crowds you definitely try talking to the people and have a good time and take turns. But if someone keeps paddling to the spot, as long as you've got about 5kgs on them, I could definitely see how some people would just go. I personally don't do that at all unless they're a real dick, but could understand it happening. I am by far not the best surfer at all, but it is funny that the average ripper doesn't weight more than 70kgs usually, it would only take one person with sufficient testicular fortitude to pull them up. Then again, some of the animals at the rock are big fellas and if they wanted the set wave you'd probably have to let them.
