How many of you are needed to carry the said Cruiser

I guess now you can share waves with family and friends, all on your board at the same time

Nice board Mac, welcome to the +10 foot and over club.....

Took my "short" (9'4") Wayne Deane out today, and got some good ones, but the 10'1" is plenty more fun to burn even my mates on their 9 something's.....

where did you go? the bommy was no use this morning.

BTW, earplugs asked me to ask you if you'd be interested in a surf trip in April 2014 cruising around the breaks off Taiwan for 6 or 7 days?

I think it was around $990 twin share including transfers.

I said I wasn't interested.

Went to Sough Lugga, was OK, bit a bit sucky. Should have gone to DY point, because when we went down to watch some of the surf carnival it had a lovely clean set of waist highs.....

May try for Manly tomorrow, but back to one car, so not sure what time.

Not really interested in a trip to Taiwan, because we're going to Europe in May, June, July.

Text me in the morning.

Bugger, you've lost the shag'n wag'n, that's a shame.

Tomorrow I'll be way out west visiting mum so the only time I can go in is between 7 and 8, before the shopping and late in the arvo

I send text whenever

Sure you're right and loving it. Just a personal thing, less drag, goes faster when cruising, alows you to get to the nose more often.
Hey , but who am I to question the Master, McT.

Those of you who don't know Grant is the organiser the Alley Fish Fry which is on this Saturday and the wooden board show.

Wow - that Grant has some serious skills with his hands / tools. Impressive collection of finished products there. Thanks for passing that on Dazzler.

See there's your problem. You can't just be friends. You need to woo them. Take them to bed to be your lover.

He's doing some amazing boards, I'm very happy with my 10fter, thought I would only surf it on waist high days but had it out on a couple of head high + days and it is fun! Suits me as I'm 6'5 & 100kg.

Thinking of putting in a large raked fin & seeing how it goes.

If you love your single fin, it will love you back
Even a muppet can get out there

Easy getting there, but harder getting back.
Still working on that. Glad I didn't run over Steve paddling out.
