Thinking a bit more about Legion saying its not his job to teach Kooks, Ive been thinking about it some more and my question is if its Not our/your/experienced surfers jobs then whose job is it

Secondly if we are not prepared to tell someone the rights and wrongs (politely) then how can we complain when someone gets in our way, or drops in on us, or paddles out in the wrong spot

I learnt from the older guys, more experienced surfers in the water when i was a grommet. SO i figure its my job to pass it on now. As for a pack of 666's taking over a break i still don't see the issue with educating them on some basic etiquette. If they don't wont to learn than its up to the crowd to sort them out. If you go out with the attitude of ill just drop in on anyone, because i'm good enough and i can, you really cant complain when others return the favour IMHO

I'm not having a dig at anyone i just think it important as crowds will only get worse, so i wanted to share my thoughts..
