north to noosa

^^press on Blue "watch on Vimeo" link

Seriously I gotta laugh. Cool old skool cinematic shoots. Retro motors tarted up and they have all you guys eating out of their hands.

Stop living in their dreams and start on your own.

Hell, even just try walking up your own beach one late afternoon.

Lana del rey has lot to answer for.

Thanks for finding that one cobra

lacey bikes have been chopped since WWII nothing "new" sorry to disappoint.

i did like the surfing and the footage.

but hell you blokes are hard to impress hey i find the same old surf cutback after cutback smash the lip after smash the lip, like a paint drying experience.

i watched a movie the other day about a bunch of young blokes travailing down to the bottom of mexico skating surfing getting drunk living life and riding hogs.

i thought it was a fantastic flick. don't bother i won't share

but if you have better input into the longroom please share.

or just continue your days of our our life drama thread of whats your next 287th board going to be and ill go back to sleep

BTW im too old to be cool and as for walking along my local Haha try surfing out of your postcode

haha No I'm not sooking,,but I'm allowed a different point of view.

Nope it was there. I just can't read. I'm at work - it'll have to wait.

hey Drip, mates solo or family trip

some good points there Mac about whats in your backyard.
but you do surf other places Hawaii Bali byron noosa that come to mind.
yep i know theres nothing better than home for soooo many reasons.



to the haters
its just a vid of something i liked. ummm it is surfing.

i did warn of the content at the start .

I'm over due for a surf trip, will havta do one soon...I like that vid Weiry, pretty sure I've seem that other one you mention too.

Esperence has quite a few very nice surf spots out of town. Just gotta be cautious of Mr Grey suit in the great Southern. Mate showed me a pic of his trip there last year with his mate surfing & a huge shark in the wall of the wave they didn't realize was there, luckily. I'd recommend exploring the whole stretch between Walpole & Esperence. Epic coastline, so many empty surf breaks even in the summer school holidays. Kind of places locals walk up & ask if your going out coz they want someone to surf with...everything is very remote, hours between towns you'll miss if you blink.

Walpole to Bremer can be inconsistent. Hopetoun to Cape Arid on the other hand...

its funny about good surf spots and sharks

little spot up the coast a group of mates go to .if theres no surf we beach fish.

few beers a stick and a fire, now thats bloke heaven.

And bucket bongs by the looks of it if you have fire sticks

lacey i get high on life

Yep and synoptic charts.
you actually had to know what the weather would do and remember what it would do to each spot..

Mark Warrens surf guide was also a must have on the road.

Yeah but your not chasing juice on a LB, I don't think Cobra's gonna be surfing those sucky short board reefies, He'd be more interested in those protected beachies I reckon. I took a HP LB down there January 2014 & had a ball. Really good to have when the winds cross shore on the open stretch swell magnets...plenty of juice between Hopetoun & Walpole too really. A couple of places I like surfing your hoping for no swell so they're only headn1/2 super sucky fun. Predominantly meant to be booger waves, but so fun on a short rockered board...I have family down there, they're boogers, but I still love them


I've got Mark Warren's book too...bought it when I was like 14 & was good to have when we travelled from Marg's to Apollo Bay in '96. Its got a cool pic of a school mate that was in a lot of my classes in Primary school doing a floater at Jakes

Mate I got the impression you were kinda against anything under 9'1 with your protests against mid lengths haha

but NP, break given

got some pics of Sumatra

Still is. Its more reliable than a lot of websites where every 15 year old ferret reckons their local rock is a regional classic.

That's some pure gold there Mr Drip

shhhhhhh

pics well yes some, the other boys have. mate we never knew about the ****d power in sumatra.

i got pics and vid of KL then no power sth sumatra, bit of go pro of some 666 then no power.

by the time we got to bail we were over it.

I've had some ridiculous bad luck with cameras & media storage the last couple of years. I know the feeling...

Not buying any new boards next year (maybe 2nd handy or 2 )...but gonna have to buy a couple of new cameras, don't even own a camera right now which is ridiculous for me. But just can't see the point of rushing out & buying one this time of year unless I see a great deal which won't happen before Chrissy/year end.
