I get stoked surfing with short boarders!!
Not the throngs that descend in summer, or the weekend warriors, but the guys I grew up with and more often these days, the kids of the guys I grew up with. If someone is shredding the vibe is infectious and you find yourself pushing that bit harder.
The bloke I am surfing with in this clip, yesterday arvo, is KB. His old man used to be the lighthouse keeper round these parts and he has lived his life in, on and around the water. One of those classic salty dogs that you can find in most coastal towns around the country. Couldnt begin to count the number of surfs we have shared at this little sand bar reef combo since we were kids but needless to say I wish I had been paid for each and all in currency apart from stoke.
Hav'nt seen KB for a while cos he has a Balinese wife and kid and spends a fair percentage of each year in Indo. Reckon you can see a little of the Ulu's influence in his down the line style. Bottom line is he stills shreds like a grom and he pushes as hard now as he did when he was eighteen.
Have'nt filmed this spot before so the angles are all wrong, sorry and better to take the HD option.
Cheers Sparx

Thanks Phill and Hilly
Like I said I could'nt get the angles right on this one. What you dont see is the section out of frame to the right where the sand ends and the reef starts. The good ones were as long again but going square in about twelve inches of water. KB was pulling in, I was hanging on by the skin of my teeth.

Next time you're down this way I'll hook you up with a couch and we'll go surfing.

Looks fun! Loved it.... wave after wave.... dancing across the screen.

At about 2:25 you cut about 1 second of footage out... I would have like to see that roll through without a cut. You both get good consecutive waves. First time I watched it, I didn't notice the cut actually.
