I noticed my boardies were getting a bit old recently & wanted to get some for a trip to Bali. Checked around the usual places & was surprised how much boardies had gone up in the last couple of years. Was like ok Hurlies US to Oz exchange rate could explain for highly priced pieces of Hurley cloth. But a local company was gouging almost as high. The winter specials you'd expect brought them down to what I'd expect the non sale retail to be. Must all be made in US Chinese factories or something

I ended up going to the Bali surf outlet stores along Ngurah Rai bypass road & grabbing a couple of Rip Curl Mirage boardies with good stretchy fabric for $30 each. The ripsurl store was the best out of the lot.

But anyway I just got this email from surline offering me a 30% discount on Kelly Slater's boardies range. I thought over $100 was ridiculous...no thats cheap apparently, Kelly's are $268 or ok just under $200 with a coupon code wtf
