check out the local free paper (clarence review) while you are in the valley and you will see why dogman is so happy, how do I get a job teaching private school girls to surf[?], nice work if you can get it.

Yeah good spot down here just had a feed of taylor we caught today.,no waves today but apart from some stares no probs with the prone guys.

i hear from surfing mates that spend time at yamba that sup has been barred from angourie by the localsmaybe thats a good thing

Hear what you are saying Firstpoint. Wouldnt have dreamed of taking the SUP out to Angas. The beauty of that area is that there are so many places that you can paddle off to and be pretty much out of everyones hair and still score some classic waves.
CHEERS

yep,i totally agree,if we are going to get along with the locals anywhere i think we have to give them something and there are waves that are sacred to these guys,maybe it will turn around in time.

Hey Teatree
Stayed at Yamba in September and lucked into a swell. Surfed a wave well down towards the coast guard station on the inside of the wall on the Iluka side and it was in freakin sane! Peaked and heaved about 10 metres in front of the rock wall and churned right into that little beach there, or ran left down the inside of the wall. The right was actually a tad heavy for a Stand Up and looked more like the sort of wave some nut case on a boogie board would tackle. Bizzare the way the swells would travel down the river, bounce off the Yamba side and then focus on this one spot. Surfed for a couple of hours shoulder to head high and apart from some curious fishos didnt see another punter. Needless to say the paddle to and from Yamba was scetchy.

That's thje same experience I had to much fun , their where some boogie boarders getting barrelled near that wall , it was amazing how it did jack up though.ther dolphins where havin a ball too

haha

some of the locals up that way have a pretty closed off thought of sup "that if you let one come then they all will invade" but who knows

hell might just freeze over and some opinions may change

plenty of out of the way spots that are sh1t hot rather than to be bugging the silver backed males out at "angers" opppphhhss angas

as said before "the take off" is very tight and everyone is sitting on each others lap waiting for a wave to drop in on each other on

unless your couscous........lol........haha.... and you just sneek back into town on the rare occassion and sly out for a quick paddle then get the f@ck outta town before the linch mob with white hoods and pitch forks come knocking on the front door

heard a few stories from lots of different crew that i see at yamba about it "not happy jan"......lol.........my reply is who cares what he was riding and i bet he was having more fun than all the crew in the water put together......lol.......good on ya kizzzzzza

the waves inside the river around whiting beach can be sooo much fun on a big board when its on

nice work taterchip

yer that little wave can get a bit wierd at times but still fun as you can pull off at the end of the wave and let the water drag you back to the take off point without even having to paddle at all

rock on
