For all our women surfers who post here ( and the guys too) here is a video shot by Michelle Shearer at Lennox Head, northern New South Wales. It speaks for itself and capture the feeling of what surfing can be!

I looked for an old man surfing video but all I could find was an old drunk man falling down in the surf and mooning everyone
So what is worse.... dying or regretting it for the rest of my life? Obviously I chose not regretting it.

Yeah I keep thinking it's a double wave and good for doing foam climbs here is something for old Australian surfers

Nice to see footage from when I began surfing just two years after the Malibu chip, balsa board was brought to Australia by California Lifeguards and Surfers Greg Noll,Tommy Zahn ( who date dated Norma Jean before she was Marilyn Munro). The lifeguards came out for the Melbourne Olympic games in 1956 . I started surfing in1958.
Quick crank up the zimmerframe with board racks I'm getting nostalgic.
