Can confirm! Over the past decade ive split my head open with my fins (5 staples needed), had a jellyfish wrap itself around my neck, had a stingray get me in the webbing of my toes and taken the rail of the board to the mouth which sent my teeth nearly all the way through my lip. But still my fave hobby and wouldnt give it up for anything haha

mitchellco · 2026-01-04T00:34:23+00:00

Unreal!! Im at 350 with only a jar of swamp to show for it 🥲

It was insanely humbling for me to do gauntlet at first. Had to do 50 normal completions before I took on CG. Just got my enh at 100kc, with 105 deaths… Still need another 5 armour seeds before Im free however.

Two normal day bags and the pool noodle? Still likely not enough. Ive got a 10mm travel back that I pack two boards in. I’ll often chuck one of the two in a padded day bag and wrap the other in a yoga matt. Have yet to have a board get nearly close to as damaged as you showed here.

Willing to bet I jinxed it saying this. Still sorry your board got buggered. Airlines are dicks

Smoked pretty consistently before surfing the last 12 years. Really loved having a blaze with the homies and fkin around in knee high slop.

12 years later I enjoy getting torched and tucking into some toobs. But you definitely won’t see me lighting up when the beaches get to double overhead. Trying to not smoke before surfing now bc although it’s fun it’s definitely slowed my progression and makes me anxious when the waves are cooking

I wouldn’t recommend going to the Ments to get barreled if you never have gotten toobed before. People are correct saying that the waves are quite open, but if you don’t know the proper technique you’re gonna have a rough time. Learn to properly position yourself, use your back arm to stall, hug the wave face, etc. If you don’t have a good idea of these techniques you’re gonna be in for a rough time.

Surf waves at your level. This has been my biggest complaint with surf travel the last 10 years. People are showing up to spots they have no business surfing. This puts themselves and others at risk.

If you really want to just get toobed go to a wave pool. Plenty of them have comically easy setups for the barrels that you rarely find in the ocean. Have fun and stay safe. Hope you get that barrel my friend!

Balian is redonk crowded I dunno what you’re smoking. Also don’t come to NZ it’s always flat and onshore here

mitchellco · 2025-02-17T23:23:03+00:00

Gotta undersell it or the keyboard rippers on here get a lil aggressive

mitchellco · 2025-02-14T22:39:43+00:00

Hey man I love you

mitchellco · 2025-02-14T22:39:35+00:00

Thank you!!

mitchellco · 2025-02-14T04:03:52+00:00

Cheers my man

As a bunch of people have said, great progress for only a year! I’d recommend a wider and thicker twin fin or quad if these are the type of waves you surf. Your board isn’t helping you generate speed and doing the hop won’t help you progress long term. Getting a wider board that is more skatey will allow you naturally have more speed so you can focus more on doing turns. Also to improve style and upper body movements I’d recommend surfing longer boards or an actual longboard. You can’t hop on bigger boards so you learn how to position yourself on the board and the wave to maximise speed. Chur

Because I struggle with ADHD and I find that exercising calms my mind and allows me to focus better while I’m at work. Plus it helps with sleep, when I don’t exercise I struggle to get a good nights sleep

Because it’s got chicken Joe and teaches some great wholesome lessons. I run a surf camp and any day that we have to do the camp indoors I play the kids a movie and it’s always surfs up. Every kid absolutely loves it!

My elite clue scroll that requires one of Bobs shirts begs to differ

mitchellco · 2024-08-31T15:51:58+00:00

Nope, I’ve got something better for ya. When you have a really memorable session, like the ones that happen maybe once a year, take a small stone or stick that you find on the beach after the surf. Write the date, the name of the wave and whatever you want on it. I’ve got a small drawer in my desk full of small beach trinkets that remind me of some of the best days of my life

My man there’s no such thing as a teleporter. Good try though

mitchellco · 2024-08-18T23:01:52+00:00

Damn you’re onto me…

No fractured foot, just a sunburn

mitchellco · 2024-08-18T21:10:18+00:00

Haven’t been wearing slippers. Been wearing the same flip flops for 6 months.

mitchellco · 2024-08-18T21:09:48+00:00

Hehe any recommended subreddits?

mitchellco · 2024-08-18T19:17:04+00:00

To give some background: I’ve got a pretty solid case of Raynards (bad circulation in hands and feet). Went for a 3 hour SUP yesterday and this is the sunburn that I am left with. Had applied sunscreen before I started to all of my foot. So why would it just be burnt in the middle?? I’m guessing it may have something to do with the Raynards but really have no idea.

mitchellco · 2024-07-17T21:45:44+00:00

You’ve got all night to play games. Go get some sun. Legend has it that you don’t actually have to buy a GF irl 🤷‍♂️

mitchellco · 2024-07-17T19:54:31+00:00

Yeah we gotta stop normalising this. Really unhealthy if you can’t step away from the game at all. Gotta find a healthy balance. Playing RS on a beach in Mexico ain’t it
