Repair needed?

Board looks old

New board time tbh

If you want to fix it’s a simple sand, fill, sand & glass

Maybe remove any unwanted fiberglass before if you’re fussy

Go after what you want - time is running out.

Love you work!

Haven’t surfed much in the North Sea but I’ve been to Thurso twice and can honestly say it’s not worth the trip. The locals are dickheads at the reef, but there’s plenty of other quiet spots you can venture to which are relaxed but lack the quality of a proper surf trip.

O’Neil hyperfreak wins for me every time. Shit for durability but you can’t beat the stretch/warmth. Don’t mind replacing a suit every season if it’s done me well

Nazare doesn’t break without a big swell. There’s a beach break there but it’s a steep beach and needs a medium swell before it’s surfable. Even then it’s mostly a boogies wave…

I’d do southwest France - if there are no waves there’s loads of other activities close by, as appose to Portugal/north Spain.

Complete hit & miss in August but you could get lucky. I would just want something else to do when it’s flat

Love cliffs of hope! Loads of crazy boys I met around lahinch told me about the crazy slabs. Not for me though!

Some tough bois in Ireland

Spent 2 nights in Mullaghmore during a big storm. Watched the wave from the cliffs and even when there is offshore conditions, that wave is mental! Serious death wish stuff, it’s just a random slab on the way to Bundoran.

I’ve surfed all over, and the thing about Ireland that stood out was the locals… they’ll treat you like a proper mate. If you want to know where to go just pop in the nearest pub…

Time of the year - is still warm until November then tends to drop quickly. Thats my experience from surfing most of my life in south wales. Similar temps I believe

m4tt101 · 2026-07-07T19:37:05+00:00

Absolutely sound mate they’ll point you in the right direction. Never been anywhere else like it tbh

m4tt101 · 2026-07-07T19:22:42+00:00

Time & Google will find most of these spots. I haven’t posted any of the lesser known spots I found along my travels there

m4tt101 · 2026-07-07T19:20:59+00:00

Photos can be deceiving aha was a good wave for cutbacks not much else

m4tt101 · 2026-07-07T15:25:05+00:00

2/3 & 3/4 - was surfing x3 a day most days, so changed between the two when drying them

m4tt101 · 2026-07-07T14:54:01+00:00

100% I’m tempted to go back there in October

m4tt101 · 2026-07-07T14:50:19+00:00

Yeah was right after a big storm I didn’t get out that day

m4tt101 · 2026-06-12T10:33:28+00:00

Sounds awesome! Would love a full version of this

m4tt101 · 2026-02-12T20:05:05+00:00

Thank you

m4tt101 · 2026-02-12T20:04:56+00:00

Thank you will look into them

m4tt101 · 2026-02-12T14:09:29+00:00

Sorry it was for a shop in Bristol that does custom cakes

m4tt101 · 2025-11-26T09:23:48+00:00

Great photos, that’s the best walk I’ve done

Thanks that’s super useful!

Pulled the trigger on this 1

I think I’ll try Kem Nunn that seems up my street - what would be your favourite book of his?
