After I got out of the water last Saturday almost every car had a card from some guy saying to go to his web site surfphotosofyou.com.au because he may have taken your photo.

I went there and had a look, there were certainly no pics of fat old turds like me on longboards but plenty of shorties pulling off maneuvers.

I though, what a good idea for someone into photography, you just use the shotgun technique of blasting everything and if just 1 guy in every 50 or so buys a pic of himself, your probably covering your costs for the day.

If I had seen a pic of myself, I would have been tempted to buy it, regardless of how bad I looked.

Maybe be should have moved up to the bommy and taken a few pics of all the old farts.

Nice pic doggie but if it's a tropical location, which is very much what it looks like from the background, how come you had to wear so much rubber?

I just bought a new L/S rashy yesterday, it's an Adrenaline and it's just about the thickest rashy I've every seen. The guy in the shop reckoned it was the equivalent of a 2mm wetty.

Was only $49.50 so I thought I'd suck it and see.

I think my paper thin L/S quicksilver cost more than $50 4 years back.

Funny little shop, it was in the middle of the CBD in an old building down some stairs. The name was a bit of a SDS ripoff, he called himself "Surf Dive & Snow"
