(Spike, Friday 3 February 2012)

Friday delivers bollock reducing wedgies in neargale SE breezes and freezing and rapidly dropping 3' surf in translucent ice water. FB kaput tho solid 4' windslosh lapping up against Muizies. Saturday freezing 3-4' surf in lighter cleaner lekker SE offshores if you have titanium wetsuit. FB mushy and dropping 2-3'. Sunday is an exact replica of Saturday. Monday is a classic. No wind. Calm. Clean. One problem. Flat as a pancake. Tuesday light W to NW bump on an otherwise tiny day. 1-2' at most. FB is same, but offshore.

aesop, by the quality of your language I can only assume that you have had no education regarding spelling and grammar and that, indeed, you actually need your fists to do your talking, or you are speaking some unknown, African American/Irish dialect...

Quoting Reza De Nicker:
Jeez I have been following this comment feed for a while now.
First off, the guys that say negative things on here whether it be about Jordy, SUP's,kooks are whatever stop hiding behind your alias on here and say who you are, you have the balls to mock people and stuff but no balls to leave your name. No one at dungeons is going to say-'hey i see menshealth is ripping' or 'Jeez how was Nick1982's last wave!'
My name is Reza De Nicker I am not afraid to hide behind an internet alias, if you want to know how I look so you can tune me, drop in on me or smack me then find me on Facebook.
Stop the negativity, we all surf and share the ocean, respect for one another thats all we need.
I see way to many egos on this comment feed and if you think this is the way to fill your ego, well say who you are first of all and stop hiding behind your made up name.
Thanks.
Oh and I am not saying everyone on this feed is negative, there is good feedback which is the way it should be.
Spread the stoke:)


Ahoy Reza, nice one man, i think we're all a little tired of these stupid internet fights about who's the "main piel" glad you also decided to end this "rediculousness" of this S%@#.. long time no see.. whats crackalakin? hows muzies these days?

Whoa bros, hold back on the racism. Not cool...I see you laaities still feel the need to feel like "big men" on the internet. Unlike me, I save my agression for the session. See in the water fools.
