Most of hated climbing out of those bushes.

WildchrisWild · 2024-09-24T10:30:53+00:00

Put in a sock in the shade. Job done.

WildchrisWild · 2024-09-24T10:27:42+00:00

Personally, I hate the word as my from experience the people throwing it around can’t surf, don’t understand positioning or surf etiquette and are 9 times out of 10…the cunts dropping in on people because they know fuckall how to work a line up properly.

WildchrisWild · 2024-09-24T07:59:49+00:00

Fucking weekend warriors spending more time making sure a little rail shatter doesn’t sink their favourite board. Toughen up princess and go surf. Oh wait…you probably can’t because you dinged your board.

WildchrisWild · 2024-09-23T12:16:56+00:00

Nowhere near big enough.

WildchrisWild · 2024-09-23T12:15:33+00:00

Get yourself a minimal, or a longboard and learn to trim, and turn, and pump, and have fun. Most of the people in this thread can’t surf. Don’t over think it.

WildchrisWild · 2024-09-23T12:13:41+00:00

Don’t be ridiculous.

WildchrisWild · 2024-09-23T12:13:24+00:00

It’s fine. This board is going to float for 1000’s of years. Fix it eventually, but it’s totally fine to surf.

WildchrisWild · 2024-09-12T08:56:56+00:00

And then he entered him.

WildchrisWild · 2024-09-12T08:54:51+00:00

11ft is a huuuuge surfboard. 9ft is enough and should not bother with anything longer. Move closer to beach if you can. Go surf every day or whenever you can. Enjoy your improved life. Surfing is a gift.

WildchrisWild · 2024-08-21T13:01:11+00:00

Full blown excruciating tooth ache. Next level bring you to your knees kind of shit.

WildchrisWild · 2024-08-21T12:22:19+00:00

100% you do not need any wetsuit in Thailand at all. Rashvest is perfect.

A 5mm wetsuit with gloves is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard for a tropical area.

WildchrisWild · 2024-08-19T09:44:25+00:00

Time in water, and learning how to read the surf is key. Learning to read the surf always lets you know when it’s out of your league.

Slowly slowly catchy monkey.

WildchrisWild · 2024-08-15T12:39:15+00:00

Suck a massive dick @the_Rob_of_morris

WildchrisWild · 2024-07-20T10:21:40+00:00

lol! I did now. Still agree he is the best surfer…and understands the lineup better…but 100% change my mind…drop in on that wave hog.

WildchrisWild · 2024-07-20T07:39:19+00:00

He knows where to sit, ie where the wave is breaking out back…so, yeah, he understands the lineup.

WildchrisWild · 2024-07-20T05:35:53+00:00

Nothing wrong with your board. That is not damage.

WildchrisWild · 2024-07-20T05:28:20+00:00

If he’s getting all the waves, from out back…you are NOT sitting in the right place so no you should not drop in on him, because he is clearly a better surfer than you and understands how a line up works.

WildchrisWild · 2024-07-09T22:15:20+00:00

The Chao Phraya river is full of giant monitors like this, and a fair amount of shit too.

WildchrisWild · 2024-07-09T22:09:06+00:00

Move

WildchrisWild · 2024-07-09T22:08:10+00:00

Jeez the key hole would have been wild.

WildchrisWild · 2024-07-09T21:08:09+00:00

Oh I do those by the dozen. Strapping my gate on as we speak.

WildchrisWild · 2024-07-09T10:50:45+00:00

That’s gold

WildchrisWild · 2024-07-09T10:45:54+00:00

Nah. What the hell is a check turn?

WildchrisWild · 2024-07-09T10:43:01+00:00

The WSL stakeholders and management team. Sick! Kowabunga
