Thanks Laurie - I enjoyed most of those. Looks like some great waves to host a comp in. Although no 666 photos are posted in this room as a general rule I am posting one.


CAPTION THIS






Should have gone with my shortboard - why do I persist with this stupid paddle

Avalon (wa version) is such a fun LB wave. Just hate those damn SUPs that crowd it. Gearies would have been good to eh Laurie?

No doubt! Was too much going on at Avalon, so hung there most of the day.

Frustating to be watching rather than doing (due to hurty bits), and yet at the same time, so much to be learnt for next time on the water. Was a great day.

Those pics are from last year...the Saturday was poo, most of the pics are from Sunday which was one of the best days of the year. Unfortunately the big event this year was absolute crud, but it was amazing what Justin Redman could still pull off in it, can't believe he didn't win.

Last year I'd just gotten a new shortboard & surfed 2nd's, but ened up grabbing my LB out of the car later on when more people came out. Its pretty rare to get bazzed at 2nd's but this young bloke in between heats took off on a bomb that just threw over a tight little sucky section he managed to squeeze through. It was a great wave, best I've seen there in years. I've had a few barrels there, but they've been rights apart from a couple of 1 second cover ups on the left.

I didn't get down to see this years state round, I was injured last Monday & still limping. Might have a go tomorrow maybe...but anyway, this years pics are here. www.woolacottimages.com/p1049475204#h28bfdd4b
