Here's a gem! http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/mudgeeraba/surfing/joe-larkin-longboard/1115046160

If I had the shed and cash this would definitely sit on the wall.

I think Chrispy or Cuttlefish were after these

FCS bonzer side fins,

Too funny...they were mine from my set of 4.
I've got a new bonzer centre fin for him that we ordered two of from the US so that's an easy swap.
True heads up as I didn't know he was selling them.
Probably figured I didn't need them any more since my boards have been sold off at such a rate I will soon have none left for the fins to go in.

The bonzer side fins that are fcs are a lot different to the glassed in ones they look shorter in the base and not as keel like. This is the second bonzer I bought a few months ago black Apache 6'4 now have this and a 5'8 Campbell Bros in my quiver and love how they surf

More the I've had enough of dealing with crowds and having to put up with "new locals" that just make it unpleasant to be in the water with.
Can't summon up the aggression needed to get waves most of the time anymore.
I'd rather ride my motorcycle in the hills than surf lately.

That's unfortunate.

I think Chrispy was mentioning a similar situation in which he was wanting to get a 10 footer "warship" I believe he called it. I think the intention was get out of the way or else you WILL get mowed over.

yeah that sucks CF - know how you feel. Thats why I wanted to get out of Sydney all those years ago. Now I am in the opposite situation - looking for people to surf with ! But is dam cold - so not the ideal set of circumstances either.

Hey, one less competent surfer in the water means more waves for others so good from that perspective.

I forget who but someone was telling me that they wore a heated veat in cold water and swore by it. Could be worth looking into

Don't think the idea hasn't crossed my mind. But I'm thinking even longer.

Thanks heaps Mac, but the populace has nothing to worry about, YET.

I am only allowed to SUP and then only on flat water. No surfing of any description yet.

However, I am about a month ahead of expectations so will keep, going as I have been and hopefully I will be able to SURF in the next couple of weeks.

Yeah I read about this on Inertia over the weekend.

Looks a bit like a meat market to me, especially some of the shots of the 13 year old daughter.

It seems that vanity, looks and sexuality are good money spinners in the tech society. Apparently they have a bunch of followers and are paid to post.

Can't blame them though if they are making good money and living a surfing lifestyle.

Maybe you should tell that ex member to haul his butt back onto the Breeze as we are in serious need of some good old fashioned diatribe between the ex Prez and the ex-member to liven the place up

Be good if he did post again...
