No surgery, apparently the MRI showed all the mechanics are in order, just time and rehab. I'm paying the price now for 3 sessions over 2 days but the doc did say to just try to get back into normal things and work through the pain, he said it might actually help.
Funny though, ribs are sore from not being used to laying prone and paddling. Anyway I'll take it slowly but good to be back.

Yeah good stuff V,glad to hear you are getting back in the water mate,slooowly does it

Spanners head high plus .. occasional long peeler .. only a dozen out at 1st light badly sunburnt face falling off going to get a surf hat .

Finally a day with the right wind. Head high with some overhead sets and getting bigger. Banks still not good but still got a few.

Good to read the Gods provided for you friend

There was a guy out there riding a foil board as well. Looked like a short fat egg shape with the big foil underneath. He looked like he was struggling.

Ban those things within 200 meters from fellow water users bloody dangerous.

I agree. The guy looked like he was having a bit of trouble controlling it and I could imagine the damage caused after being hit by one. As if 666's aren't bad enough out there

Anyone seen someone ride a SUP FOIL or is that FOOL

That's probably even more dangerous. Heading out soon for a look.

It's been going on up here for a while, I don't have a issue with them other than they should be under the same rules as power boats, 200 meter rule.

Lol....just like all the pros on the goldcoast ignoring all the ski rules because their next ig clip is more important than the safety or fairness to others?

I think pup might be right,the goldcoast is all image and ****ery without any respect for anyone. It is a place filled by the fake and selfish. I have stuck up for this place since I have lived here,but truly the name should be changed to foolsgold coast . Where image is more important than substance in and out of the water

Imagine towing in at bells on a 6ft wave? I would imagine there would be blood spilled

Yeah. Them and bloodly mals. Especially 12 ft mals
Its bloody rediculous




Ps fact. Ive been hit by more mals then any other surf craft so they are my biggest danger

I've been hit more times by my own surf craft then any other.
So I am my own biggest danger.

Just back from some pretty good waves at a local reef break. Its a left that runs down the side of an island. Al will know where it is. Overhead sets and a bit tricky on the 11 footer with side wash and wind but got a couple of good ones. Buggered now but in a good way

Ok. You need to stay 200 m away from yourself

350 if you're a dirty little shortboarder with no style

Ah yes S,a good wave indeed although I haven't been out there in a long time Good to see ya get some nice size ones to on the 11 footer mate,the take offs would have been funBeer time soon

No worries with the takeoffs Al . An 11 footer gets you in early . There was some nice long clean walls running down the inside . Heaps of fun .

Had a wave at this set up yesterday. Got a really long wall. Rugby Point I'll call it.
