here you go .

I know nothing about anything .

But in other sports any one can enter if their game ,or if they have the entry fee .

The cream rises to the top .

Why limit the numbers , just have a bigger event .

or is it that , " i,m to fingg good to compete against that jerk " ?

or " oh crap joe bloggs lucked it in in the 1/4 finals with a 10 second barrel "

and now i,m out .

or, " he didn,t compete in the state titles , so he car,nt compete in the nationals ", oh really!!!


None of the above - and that is a great idea - but who is gonna run it?

Surfing Australia are supporting SUP and run it similar to the short and long board divisions. They do a pretty good job as well - just need to sort out the selection criteria.

PS Anyone can enter the state titles BTW.

'only the longboarders who are already there should contest the sup division. at least some classy surfing would be seen by the spectators and gives the judges something they can work with'.

this was what 62mac said on the longboard forum i think



Funniest thing I have heard in a long time. Yeah if the judges like watching guys go in a straight line.


I'm planning on entering the SPSC events this year having never entered a sup or surfing event before, so you better get used to watching some guy go in a straight line! Besides, I'm only coming cause I heard there's always a good sausage sizzle

Didnt say they wern't good at what they do. Just not my cup of tea. Managed to avoid the whole longboard thing, shortboarder at heart so thats the school of Stand Up I subscribe to. Be interesting to see whos cuisine reigns supreme at the Aussies. Richard Cram style shredding courtesy of the Dogman or something with a little more 'dishpan'. No wrong or right just personal preference.

Dicky Cram was a regular to Maroubra in the 80's as the surf at Bondi was always Sh--. He ripped like nobody else. I recall sitting on the rocks with the boys watching him surf then go home and watch The Performers.
Unfortunately, this vid does'nt have the original music (Burnin down the house by Talking Heads).




great Vid Scotty 88, I,ve never been into the whos, who of surfing , so never heard of him . but he surfed alot like Mark Richards I recon . ?

Yep, Sydney Paddle Surfing Club - 14 Aug 2011 at Long Reef Beach. It's the first event of season #3 so it's a great one to get to. Everyone welcome. Rego starts at 7:30am. And as Dan said above, everyone gets to surf at least twice now that we have implemented the repercharge round.
