I take it this means you and the girly have gone your separate ways then Hang in there TC and I hope you get some good ones !

Your dreaming young TC.

I love Tassie and have been to Hobarttown on numerous occasions. But one thing I have never seen is any waves.

They must be kept in secret locations.

ET.

Yep for sure mate.

I sent you a pm about some other gear as well. I wasn't sure if it went through will check.

ET, there are waves around Hobart, but not immediately in Hobart!


Teacake, yep my Mum used to live over there, and I have surfed there a bit over Summer. Mainly surfed that right-hander, just over the hill, from The Wedge...? And the Wedge... Been ages, forgotten the names! South Arm area, near Betsey Island.

Had plenty of waist high days out at The Righthander. Really fun little wave actually!


Surfed at Clifton a few times, but not very memorable!

Rebounds. Funny. You say it is fun waves, absolutely crap compared to the EC Photos next week when I get home guys

Ted, me and missus are fine, just quite a distance apart

Brothers and sisters shouldn't argue....

Hahaha , TBH I witnessed more brother / sister/cousin relationships in Qld then in Tassie (not including the west coast )

was reading there was a bit of swell around today on the south and west coasts , flat as here should go for a drive but seriously lacking motivation .

Should be nice over on carlton beach today where the PBBR are having there monthly comp . If you are close Tom should duck around and meet 2MT , Riverrider , Cruisen and all the crew , top bunch . Hoping to get down to next months if all goes to plan .

Bet you had a large bulge with your Hawkers shoving a large Krakowurst up the 'Roos last night Taz

Could say that Pup , bit of a history in Launceston of the hawks giving the kangaroos a flogging , another example of the northern Tassie team kicking the team from down south up the butt . Even without buddy I reckon the hawks are looking good for another premiership year .. Would like to see Majak in a Hawks jersey . He is going to be some player in a few years .

I am on the northwest Tom , tend to head west most of the time so don't get to the east coast or south that much .was hoping to get down to Hobart next month for the park beach board riders comp but I think the next one is on the long weekend so can't make it , bit of a bummer

Good news because of the west coast classic the PBBR comp has been pushed back to the following weekend .Long weekend I am booked in for some camping and trout fishing so no surfing that weekend . Will be pissed if it's pumping .

Favourite spots for me - Midpoint , Penguin Reef , Fairylands and a few spots over around Stanley .

bet your pic's don't show it like this TC

How often does it break like that RR? Looks like Raglan in reverse to me. Heaven in other words

Geez .... think we have just uncovered the best kept secret in Oz

You can visit the place on you're east coast adventure PUP and pics of you in the pocket or you didn't surf it

Wasn't that big but just as perfect shape! Certainly a place to visit pup!

My brother got a few good shots and I have a few not bad ones as well!

I will post them in a few minutes, after tea!

get a mango up yaaaaaaaa

Mango? Bit of a weird fetish there pup...

Ah 4/3? Are you nuts? Haha Na 4/3 is good for most people in winter, but a good 4/3 as you mention. Personally, I am all bone so I am in a 5/4/3 fully sealed billabong suit in the winter but for you guys with a bit of blubber a 4/3 is fine. 3/2s in summer. If you come down to Tassie, shoot us a message and I will show you the places to go mate, so many fanastic uncrowded waves!
