y0 I surfed at Torquay (oz) on Friday (yesterday) and it was choppy and high-tide. Because I am a beginner, I had a very hard time trying to get past the shoaling water to where the waves were a bit more smooth etc. Also I have about a 2 hour return bus-journey to get to the beach, with one bus change on the way. I have been dire for more than twenty-four hours. *drinks seventh cup of green tea*

surfed manly beach, sydney yesterday. 4-6'' offshore, beautiful... got some nice rides, saw some huge standup tubes, got a sneaky few myself :) .. headin' back out today, not sure if I should take my 6'2'' or my 5'6'' rocket.. surfed on my 6'2'' yesterday and it felt like a boooaaaattt!! I've been surfing my little 5'6' rocket so much lately that my shortboard feels like a damn longboard!

Been trying to get used to my shortboard, stood up today for first time and was awesome the feeling I got! The swell was small here though so hopefully in bigger surf like we should have on weekend I'll be able to stand better :D just sooo stoked at moment :D

4ft cleanish at woolacombe devon and I had the added pleasure of being run over by some fool on a 9"3 log

last friday i went to folly, swells were between 4 and 6 but super choppy and pushing almost straight to the pier. paddle out for 10 minutes to catch about 5 sec ride, 8 if your lucky. at the end of the day i was exhausted and only caught like 3 or 4 solid rides but it was a good experience for a beginner like myself, didnt take any pics
