You teased us with the prospect of two separate week long trips DS with jet skis and cameras so where are the pics?

I said before we were binning it because of the conditions. We were expecting a big swell in Denmark and it came in easterly and turned to 5hit. The second trip was just a Margs one and the only place with anything above a ripple was surfer's point...and the best clip I got of that sesh was of a dad pushing his grommy son onto a small wave. I guess I could post that if people want.

Hoping for another chance soon before silly season kicks off. Just picked up a new housing yesterday in anticipation.

Red thumbs incoming I am sure.

No red thumbs, just thought you were holding out. I've spent a bit of time down that way and have been $crewed by the easterly too. Bad luck and thanks for replying.

I don't know the area well and have never surfed in Denmark. I was tagging along on my mate's film shoot but they decided to bin it. They still went down, but without all the kit and jet ski and apparently didn't get a single decent wave. I spent the weekend looking at algae under the microscope...so I don't know who had it worse.

I wish it was a case of me holding out. The trip wasn't binned until the night before we were suppose to drive down which is always disappointing.

^^ I could be your guide for a small fee

Haha, I don't know if that's in the budget

Tempted to head south tomorrow to give the new ikelite housing a go.

I was thinking of going down to Margs for the Foam Lust thing but I have to work on Saturday

Ha, just remembered I can't go down anyway. Have tickets to watch the Force lose on Saturday.

Chuck a sickie man and go down. That expo looks awesome!

Anyhoo, here's the only clip I kept from the last shooting trip down south.
Pretty dismal results....and god knows what youtube has done to the colour. I might have to re-upload when I get hom.

^^^ How bad is that?!!

i wouldnt mind regular waves like that, would beat perth waves 9 times out of 10

That would beat local waves 100% of the time, looked great

Don't get me wrong, the wave looks good enough, but the surfing/style/timing/behaviour...

True, style and timing wasnt that great but the wave was awesome

The kid on that wave was like 10 years old...give him a break

ummm have I got this right? you guys are criticising a kid that got pushed into a wave? Behaviour??? WTF

I'm equally confused mate.

I was looking at the wave, plus how can ya tell that, (A) it was a kid and (B) he was being pushed in??

Looked to me like there were two people going for the same wave and one gave up and left the other guy in.

Thats how I saw it

Haha, I explained the vid in my first post but I can see the confusion now re-reading the thread.
