you could swap your days off to suit the swell

After spending the last few weeks out with a dodgy back and then add poor conditions,I have not spent as much time in the water as I would like.

This weekend is typical.yesterday crap and today worse,so its a waisted weekend
in my books.

What ya reckon

That would be an interestingly worded employment contract.

"The employer (herein refereed to as "the aresehole boss or TAB") does hereby agree that the employee (herein refereed to a the "Useless Bludjing Surfer or UBS”) can differ working hours if the swell size is above 3 feet and considered to be going off”

Works for me

Surfer contract addendum 1

This agreement is only binding whilst it is know that the UBS in question does at all times, of his own powers and skill rise to his or her feet unaided or unencumbered by a long silly looking stick with a paddle on the end.

This addendum being intended to ensure that no persons masquerading as surfers are allowed into the lineup on the aforementioned (cause 1, item 3 of surfers contract) days when it is considered to be "going off".

Back in 84,I rocked up to an interview with my board on the roof.
One of the first questions I was asked,so you surf? yes I enjoy surfing was my reply.
The interview lasted 10 minutes

I got the job the recruitment guy was a keen surfer and I soon moved up the ladder

My son surfed Snapper and said it was ok,which means unreal when your 17.

He said it was super crowded,he is at the gym and then going back out later,so it must be good.

Hey BB
We surfed Snapper LM to Gmount this morn at 6am there was big peaks and troughs coupla good waves every now and then but swell coming from all directions ( I was actually starting to feel a bit sea sick waiting for waves) my mate got hit in the neck by his twinny on his first wave so we bailed after an hour he is so accident prone he is the same guy that got smashed by the jetski while paddling his SUP during the Quikky Pro a couple of years ago, you dont want to be in the water around him cause hes always trickling a bit of a burley trail behind him

I'm lucky I work shift work and get plenty of days off. I'm lucky because I can mostly surf through the week and brush the crowds on weekends.
I know where you're coming from Mac with the bad back.
I had surgury on mine nearly 2 years ago and took a while to get back out there.
For the past 6 months I've been doing pilates and now surfing better than I 've done in years. Its made a massive difference.

Hey fellas I just got back from Crescent head yesterday .
I took the fam up for a week,s camping what a hoot
The point worked 4 days on 3 off (must be in hueys eba )
Anyway the crew were going off the age was 40ish plus and very relaxed
apart from some short boarders on day three
I got some memorable waves and you had to negotiate a busy channel with crew scattered in groups at various spots of the wave the biggest day got to about 4 ft
and very crowded , I drove down to point plomer one afternoon to find the beach empty the solitude was bliss after the crowds at creso
We did a little sight seeing and sampling of the local fare .
I even found a a reason to visit the local Bunnings when a near gale blew up on Wednesday and buckled the tent after tearing the fly off, anyway I fixed the problem and by the generosity of a couple of blokes with some extra rope and stuff, got everything back on track , the weather was warm and sunny mostly , but the rain started late Friday night and so we had to decamp in the wet s--t happens anyway
We stopped off at a couple of places on the way back to Syd-ney and all in all had a pretty good week anybody thinking of staying at the camp grounds should book early
unfortunately i don,t have any pics as camera shat itself yeeha
Oh yeah before i forget, on the last day there was one guy out there who,s name was Pete he was 70+ without a doubt and charging harder than anyone awesome
