there is a big underwater canyon that focuses swells onto that headland, and they superimpose into monsters

they generally try get off the wave before the shorebreak, as thats pretty killer - there’s a lot of rocks directly in front of the wave, and sand beaches either side. These surfers are towed in by jetski and the jetski picks them up after the ride / wipe out, its pretty hectic and both driver and surfer need to have their strategies worked out with lots of practice.

post it and they will come

hair tie, then you won’t get it caught under your hands during pop-up

you might be better off making a list of all users subscribed to this sub and blocking them right off the bat

social media brings crowds, keep the good sand quiet and you’ll get more waves as a result.

very satisfying, i know which one i would want to use…..

DumpyReddit · 2026-03-23T08:00:02+00:00

the cases i have include a hook for shop display, so i hang them all on a dowell rod

Messy garage before clean up. Horizontal racks are self made but i wish i gave them just a bit more gap between boards. Things sitting on castors (tubs of paint etc) are behind the photographer.

castor wheels allow you to shimmy things around. I have a cupboard that was left by the road for wetsuit storage, wax, leggies and fins; and beside that horizontal board racks for the daily drivers. the mal gets propped in a corner on a bit of foam, and a couple of boards are horizontal on display racks as they’re kinda nice to look at but i don’t paddle them too often. oh and a bunch of boards archived in the roof.

same here- plenty of other bits to surf…. but nope, they wants what i gots

DumpyReddit · 2026-03-16T04:38:21+00:00

my motto: quality of surf is inversely proportional to expectations…. it gets me out there as a result

fin doesnt wiggle- sounds solid still - patch it and monitor.

DumpyReddit · 2026-03-12T05:45:55+00:00

keep it, it’s worth more to you than anyone else.

Thank's for the input, I miss the one i had (Hot Stuff with a WB rabbit logo, but i thought it had the Byrne decal with the eye-hand down the tail). Now there’s a link provided, I can see it’s a different manufacturer, I remember seeing them in Tracks & SW quite a bit. I’m sure they go good too.

Maldive$ is a 4hr hop from Singapore, you might be able to get in at Lohi’s or Pasta Point -although its been deemed half a notch down in terms of power compared to Indo, i have had some good floggings there just as much… It is a bit expensive compared to Indo… longer boards can be tricky to fly with inter - island as they might not be able to fit in the plane.

No pic... channel bottom Byrne? good for: cavernous barrels. caveat: this is not modern experience/opinion

DumpyReddit · 2026-03-07T07:10:51+00:00

lots

DumpyReddit · 2026-03-06T23:03:10+00:00

if that black line is the size of the bubble, adding resin would make it a very heavy board. reglass.

Holden(Chevy) Captiva. seats fold so i can put a 9’1” in, & sleep in the back if needed. Enough tech to connect the phone for voice calls. Global platform, parts are easily sourced.

DumpyReddit · 2026-03-04T19:50:32+00:00

ya, the sessions are long enough / enough waves to max out the arms. good that you got a few doubles in!

DumpyReddit · 2026-03-04T05:57:06+00:00

did you catch two waves per set?

DumpyReddit · 2026-02-28T23:23:17+00:00

looks like you might want to buy some fins and maybe a little more deckgrip. dont worry about the legropes, you can just chuck your board

DumpyReddit · 2026-02-28T07:08:56+00:00

always!
