    That’s a SLAB that wave you posted surely not Margies where is it? Its a towie wave for sure. The ripples were head high yesterday here and fun small barrels I don’t do tow in myself hahaaaa geez your posts make me smile GT2
    Actually that slab you posted is a good metaphor for interferon erghhhh. I would defs wipe out and I did on peginf lol!!
    Have a look at my avatar that’s a couple of weeks ago we are just getting swell after swell in Vicco.
    Hey, Tasmania….. If you are in Hobart head down to Shippies because the fellas are towing there like huge waves
    I’m fascinated by tow in surfing it’s another league and they seriously risk their lives have a listen to Ross Clarke Jones on it or Greg Noll of course
    See what’s happening GT2 once I am wound up on surf I cannot stop! Argh
    Anyhoo the thing is how much can you take in wiping out? Surfer Today explains it:

    ” Big waves are surely heavy. If you want to get an overall weight for your specific wave, you can roughly memorize that a cubic meter of water (1000 liters) weighs one metric tonne (1000 kilograms). How about that?

    Example: a 33-foot (10-meter) wave with a falling lip that is 66-feet (20-meters) wide will mean that, if you wipeout, you’ll feel the equivalent of 410 tonnes (410000 kilograms) over your body. That’s the weight of 488 Volkswagen Beetles (1967 model)!

    Another example from the average surfer’s perspective: imagine a 20-inch (50 centimeter) thick wave lip, only 3.2 feet wide, in a summer three-foot wave. Total weight? A solid 500 kilograms (1100 pounds).”

    My preference is 3-6 foot and they are more than capable of holding me down if the swell period is over 14 seconds! I don’t wipe out much but I feel it when I do
    Love the pic GT2

    Hope this next doesn’t offend anyone…

    Hi Matt

    Way to go … you’ll soon be feeling better than you ever have for years … this’ll be a game changer … drink plenty of water, maintain a positive attitude, and you’ll be HCV negative in no time (OK, to be pedantic: HCV RNA Undetected).

    You will be amazed. It’s pretty great to know what normal feels like. Like GT2 says, drink plenty of water. Most people get pretty thirsty on the treatment.

    A favourite indeed. I saw them at the Sydney Town Hall back in the mid to late 70s. They started off slow but the more they drank the better they got

    PS Mick Fannings board was fluoro yellow when the shark nudged him at J Bay

    When I saw the footage of Fanning and the Noah I though it must have got caught in the leg rope.

    Now is the BEST time to swim at Cabbage Tree Bay. Just this morning I saw 3 giant cuttlefish, a turtle, a trigger fish, many duskies and a plethora of other fishies I unfortunately cannot identify. And dolphins, but not in the bay.
    Warm in the water, chilly out.

    I was using a magnesium supplement to help prevent cramps when swimming but they have diminished since I started Tx. I bought some magnesium ointment that goes on the skin and that seems to help. So does half a banana before the swim.
