Local shaper ex Scarborough boy, Aido Shepard has shaped some retro boards for the movie....look sweet



A real nice guy to boot.

I jumped in to what seemed to be small and slow, but it was actually super fast and hollow so struggled on the wrong board. But was nice to get wet again. Another local was on fire and snagged a few rippers


SO went back out on Sunday, Still hollow but smaller. First time I've tried my EVO out their and what a difference from the day before. It loved the conditions and made for much easier steeper take offs. Nothing to special, but super fun still to boot..

Up early and checked a few spots but ended up were it was working. Looked terrible but was actually a bit of fun for the first few hours of day light. Only a small hand full out and sharing around nicely. Surfed my EVO again and it was great, a bit slow on the waves so ended up surfing of my front foot slightly too much..

(At least thats why i think it felt front food needed)

Enjoyable to boot..

Glad you got out for a paddle JB, I knew last week that there was a chance of waves this morning but nothing I could do to swing a dawn patrol

I think you think too much about your feet btw, get rid of all your boards and keep one, that will sort out your issues, too much choice spoils the fun ha ha

Fun waves this morning. A little slow between sets but enjoyable with about 16 others, at absolute first light

Crazy crowds, crazy vibe and a crazy swell, just crazy...

Still good to get out and paddle around for a couple of hours - saw lots of sand moving around, hopefully gives banks for a little while

Did you? It sucked. Did you walk home afterwards? With a beaten up old Clearwater?

Yeah, creepy

Conditions were bad last night but there was heaps on offer when you got lucky. I love it when it's stormy.

I didn't get lucky but it is what it is. Yeah, not sure why I thought "suba" but there you go. You were walking in front of Sammys pizza bar as I drove down the carpark.
