Back in Da Zone























Living on a Island




After a long week of work Friday night the call was made for a trip down the coast , the forecast was pretty bleak, just a couple of feet of swell with a touch of east in the direction. We were surprised to see a little runner pushing down the side with no one out , with me ripping my clothes off as fast as, wet suit on and mat & flippers in hand , running as fast as I could in the direction of the Ocean. Keith the local kneelo was there also,  taking his dog for a walk and his usual surf check, making the comment he would join us as well, so with just the 3 of us for over 30 minutes including a passing Whale and Calf in the line up , catching these fun little right hand barrels, running down the very low tide and shallow reef , Keith finally came walking down the hill with his 12 fin flex tail , fish kneeboard. Yes , you read correctly 12 fins , 3 lots of double fins , both sides of his tail





and he has the placed wired! He no sooner jumps out and straight into a wave , runs back around and does it all again!




 By now the tide was really getting low and Paul did not want to risk tearing his new Standard from 4GF  , so he jumped out and took some pics from the shelf, leaving just  Phil and myself sharing the lineup , with  Keith catching his fill and heading back home for breakfast !








So after 2 hours of fun we spotted the next crew rolling down the hill , so time for a feed , coffee and time to reflect over the mornings adventure before heading back home !



Call us when you want it small!!

We have a Blow Out! Neal has finally killed his Vespa Round Tail , not bad considering it was purchased 2nd hand and been constantly surfed for the past 3 years , putting up with daily surf abuse!
Anyways here is some video starting from 3 years ago...

So after asking around if there was any 2nd flyers on the market for sale, it was a no brainier parting with one of my Lotus SS models much to the delight of Neal and the SCUMM crew...which he promptly took out for a test run








It was suggested that he could fix the old mat with this, but I don't  think it was going to be a great success!
