Hi guys
I'm heading over to Geelong for a sailing competition in early Jan. Any advice on where to hire a board and go for a surf locally?
Cheers

Geelong is about 20 min from Torquay/Bells area. Give Rich a call at Strapper.

If it's a strong Westerly, and sailing is cancelled, we can get you out for a Downwinder on Corio Bay also!
PM me if you or others need crew too. I know my way around the deck.

Thanks Paul.

It's the Etchells Nationals, I'll keep you in mind if someone pulls up short. Would love a downwinder, sailing is cancelled at +25kts usually. Mostly would like to get out in some decent waves - perth metro is pretty inconsistant over summer.
thanks
