Great stuff BB, I should be good to go next week and with any luck the UFO will be as well.

BB, do you know how long after the shaping process is the board finished


Will depend on how much they have on but I am a bit anal with new boards and leave them for at least a month after glassing before riding them !! yeah yeah I know - but that's just the way I am.

Same bat time same bat place and pretty much same bat conditions this morning. Maybe a little bit better waves with more shoulder to them and longer rides. Had a groovy time and even got up the front on a couple - and that is rare for me trust me Not quite as crowded which was nice.

is it as flat everywhere else as it is in Sydney?

I went in this morning, but it was just woeful

The only fun bit was watching a noob on an sup constantly falling off every time he tried to get to his feet.

I reckon being a noob on an sup is heaps worse than being noob on a longboard.

At least on a mal you only fall off after you get on the wave, these sup guys seem to be going arse over tit every 2 seconds.

It's really hard to keep a straight face, I sometimes try to remember how bad I was, but it doesn't help, I'm still piss'n my pants

Dam obct,I was thinking that just maybe 24 hours would slid by without a single post

Its been the same up here for weeks,flat as a witches tits[}:)] With the back coming good and a new board on its way things need to improve real quick.

Oh that sup comment was funny,I totaly feel like a KOOK on my sup every time I am on it (not often )

At least you got wet

very shy mac

Had a really nice sup sesh at L/M and Greeny this morning - nice and clean and punchy and not crowded. Then is just kinda turned to shik with the tide and wind change.
Is there a mal comp on at Rainbow this weekend ?

Oh yeah - caught up with Lfish on the sunny on wednesday for a coupla waves and a coffee - signed him up for the super breezer team for woolgoolga comp, so I reckon we will be a force to be reckoned with. AND got a quick paddle on his home made sup - what an absolute gem of a board and hes even gunna let me loose on it in some juicier waves when we get them - looking forward to that.

What a tough life. I don't wish bad surf on anyone BUT NO I won't go there, hope the surf is good for you, but can us mere mortals please get a decent surf this weekend.
BTW the temp is only going to be about 17 or 18 this weekend over here. It's hard to get enthusiastic when your nuts are freezing.

No smart arse comments from Queensland about warm weather please
