Be offshore in all your surfing days,
The sand warm between your toes,
If in the cold may your snow be Powder!
Be your celebrations hearty,
If you have a Christmas tree,
Let your love be free..
celebrate and say peace to thee. :D



Just go,and enjoy yourself thoroughly :lol:

You aren’t missing much surfwise Jaffa - 1ft at 4 seconds blown flat by the southerly...and it’s overcast. Although probably still warmer than Austria!

Bought myself a new board for Christmas (custom 6’10). Just need waves. Although will take for a paddle later today regardless.

May all your waves be long and peeling

highs in the single digits this week - even if the waves were good, that's "under" my air temperature threshold which is around 20F

It was in the high 80s this past week in the Dominican Republic. Definitely not a white Christmas but a fun one with lots of high points for me! I'm now back in NYC and hating this cold, though planning a snowboard trip in Vermont next month.

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and got all they wished for!

Better than having a white Christmas due to ashes like we have in Southern California :)

Belated Merry Christmas to you all on the forum!

That 49 degrees C is the difference between an Australian Christmas at 40C and Austria where I am at -9C.
White days before and after but not during. :lol:

Got a car now and an Austrian driver's licence, the search for the Mysto Austrian Point break begins.

Somehow I missed this... Thank you for your wishes Jaffa and all the best for your search! :D :surfing:

Indeed cold days in Austria. Down to -20C on the Rettenbach glacier today, but fresh powder, blue skies and a gorgeous day. Had to join my daughter in the fun park, but at my age I can only take VERY small risks..

A lot of fun anyway .. :D :D
