Small blown out Rocky Rights yesterday morning, after a couple hours my good friend Neal (http://www.hisurfadvisory.com) wnet in and grabbed his camera for few shots in the declining surf. Managed to snap a few of me riding my #4 -

Oh and I’m super stoked that the freakin thing WORKS, pretty damn good too

5’10" x 18 1/8" x 2 1/8"

thanks heaps for the shots , Bud , and for resurrecting this thread .

cheers

Chipfish This is such a great thread. Some great boards - and some fantastic photos. I know that you’ve been a bit coy about posting shots of yourself (you shouldn’t be - there are some goodies in there!). But if you (or anyone else on Swaylocks) have got video footage then you can share it on www.mywave.tv.

I only mention that in the context of sharing surf imagery. No Oz waves there. Yet!

I’ll take a turn at some shameless self-promotion!!! I’m feeling the perimeter stringers!!!

4 different waves from the recent San O trip on a compsand balsa

First 3 by Surfore, 4th by Mike.

Chip, I use imageshack.net (which comes up imageshack.us for me but might be different for you) for free hosting. You can always try that too if you exhaust your allotment at photobucket…

Benny, if i could have waves of that size and shape consistently , i’d never be at work, or at home!. Lucky bugger!. Seem to have had real crap shape the last few surfs, dont know why, hope it changes soon, its hard to improve on messy bumpy waves!!!.

Cheers!

no one ever takes stills of me

but here’s Sharkcountry in all his splendor hanging out with the boys at tennis courts in September some time

riding his sapele and sycamore skinned lowes EPS 8’ hull design one of four made.

Hard to believe there’s moke hiding in there somewhere

yeehaaa !

I hope you’re enjoying this thread , Oldy !! …it’s for you !!

do you have any recent photos of YOU on your fish , please , Nathan ?

I love looking at these pics. I’m working at a place that has made a few ‘virtual boards’. You can make one too, surf stuff here: http://www.meez.com/main.dm?ic=51 (click the guy)

You’ll need:

java, speedy connection, patience (we’re still in beta!)

Have fun!

Ian [‘sandgroper’]
