shout out to the Gong (where my wife comes from and I've been many times)

What that photo doesnt show you is what you see if you are looking from the water onto the shore...(wollongong is a big steel town. However, outside of the steel area its really beautiful). I also love that Wollongong has 'north beach' (north of the lighthouse) and 'south beach' (south of the lighthouse). Because, obviously, the wollongong lighthouse is the centre of the world!

Every time I see longboarding videos like this I can't help thinking about how many turns I could have done on a wave like that but I guess in reality not too sure just more than any of them did
So what is worse.... dying or regretting it for the rest of my life? Obviously I chose not regretting it.
