Hi

Im Tom, 17, currently living in Milton Keynes (miles away from any waves ). I skateboard and snowboard, but went to Hawaii over the summer and pretty much spent the whole week surfing. Fair to say I got hooked, so when looking at what uni to apply to this year, bournemouth is my favorite choice. So Im hoping to get in so I can be surfing again by september. Fingers crossed aye

Welcome to the forum Carl. However we don't allow URL's on your first post, otherwise people would think you only came here to advertise your own business rather than join in discussion topics and we dont want people to get the wrong impression do we?

Hey there Zero Cool Gallery was formed in late 2008 by a group of artists, curators and collectors. Our aim is to work closely with a small group of artists whose work we love and 100% believe in and to develop this work overtime.

We endeavour that everything released from Zero Cool is the highest of quality while still remaining accessible to everyone and we don't really no all that much about surfing but when were out paddling we would rather not have crap floating by... viewtopic.php?f=8&t=14954

Hi everyone, 47 years young (age is just a number in your head) Live in Derbyshire, UK which is 110 miles from any decent swell! hence the name....

Still a "novice" but improving everytime, which is great. Riding a NSP 7'6" Mal at the moment - I was told it was a good board to start on.

Now looking at reasons for being within striking distance of any decent swell whilst out and about "working". Defintely been bitten by the bug......

My 12 year old son got me into surfing after he we had a couple of lessons two years ago, we previously messed around with bodyboards. Our favourite break is Gwithian

Cheers

Hello all, another surf deprived essex member here! I live in Rayleigh, about 90mins from Joss Bay, probably my nearest surfable beach. It seems the name 'essex sucks' was taken!

'Sup? I'm Chris, I'm 21, I'm from Thurrock (pronounced with an 'F') in Essex and I'm a cartoonist... but don't hold that against me. As of this moment I've been surfing (on a proper... ish board) for just under a day.

Thanks in adavance for any and all posts. I'll report back what we decide to call the place and if I can figure out how to do it, I'll post the menu too. Happy Holidays from OCMD

Hey all...I'm new on here too... I try and get out at Bournemouth pier as often as I can...its way too crowded at the moment and no one knows the rules of the game!

Simon...don't go too far down the road looking for boards... try and support the local surf shops. I'm told that in two weeks or so there is a new Surf Shop opening in Bournemouth near Snow Togs which will have the biggest boardroom on the whole of the South Coast.
