What my friends are scoring in the US while I'm visiting home...

So, sadly for me, my friend and girlfriend are scoring back in California while I surf in (relative) mush with my friends back home in South Australia.

For example, Pam got County Line two days in a row.

Here's a photo of the second day she had some fun:

At roughly the same time, my mate Andrea scored El Porto.

Here's a video of that day he uploaded onto YouTube (If you look at the above satellite photo, you can see the rock groin he filmed the footage from):

I on the other hand, have been flapping around in plappy waves in South Australia's Goolwa Beach.

Here's a photo of how much worse I did than my Californian friends:

To add salt to the wound, pardon the pun, I also hurt myself in the process:

But then again, I can't complain: my mate Michael dislocated his knee in the same session...

  1. Funny coincidence...you may wonder why I didn't walk up the rocks to shoot the video closer...well...I was injured too....I got stung by a bee on my toe....I could barely walk :)

    1. It's funny how things happen.

      I guess I'm wondering then: did you still manage to get in for a wave? Nothing's worse than being injured while it's pumping :(
