A little bit Abt my profile, I hv surfed Thailand , vietnam , Taiwan and s'pore and it is my first time here in oz. Can water start and hv quite stable basics. Still working hard on my carve gybes.

My impression so far is that e community is pretty small here in oz. it's concentrated mainly in perth; could some1 confirm?

community is small but all over the country... If you're back packing through melbourne then you'll be in St Kilda. Head down to the Zu in st kilda on the beach.
