Ah I dont think anywhere will be working tomorrow. I managed to score a sesh at putts today, which was cool untill the winds totally messed it all up. Judging by the winds roaring outside nowheres gonna be half decent. Infamous and dangerous storm swell me thinks. :roll:

Shame for the Jesus Surf Classic too!! The final was supposed to be tomorrow? But I guess it breaks the tradition of all Christian Surfer events getting flawless waves every year! :P

You bboard?! Whoa I thought you vertically-surfed.
Respect to you, it must suck in the summer when all the tourists come out to play on their polystrene boards, and give you guys a bad name. No offence intended if your quiver includes a tasteful polystrene number...!!
Just goes to show how simular surfers and bboarders sound on forums. Im thinking the picture could have been a bit of a give away :roll:

what ive allways wondered is why it was ok to drop in on a bboarder, but like the worst thing ever to another surfer.... I think they should get equal waves or whatever, I wouldn't drop in one, and hope other people wouldn't when I board too.
