Seems you have a lot of fans in the comments on beachgrit .
Haha shit. We went easy on him here.
Don’t think Australia is really his audience , might have better luck in Europe . @seeds , any idea where carrot cake rock is ?
No idea but Barreled is obviously an Aussie.
That is still the world’s worst word except for here.
Well he actually admitted to being Blowin with a link to an article he wrote on this sight a while back.
Haha
& this …
“Don't know much about him, but I like to think of him as the Toledo of commenting - a massive amount of haters, and probably couldn’t pack a tube if his life depended on it. Ironic considering he’s spent half his life chasing the world’s best waves, named cloud 9, and is somehow getting the attention to etch himself into surf history (mostly thanks to the haters)”
…reckon ppl know the calhounian better than he does ;)
^^^ and in that comment he spelt ass correctly ;)
hear hear. If espousing no other moral lines-in-the-sand, SN's commenters proudly hold firm on the UK/Aus/NZ spelling and pronunciation of 'arse'.. sadly we've all but lost Canada to the inevitable southern influence, but we stand proud. We stand tall. The USA can shove its ass up its arse.
(how's Gerda Nicolson, who played Robyn in Neighbours, fagging on with her cuppa?)
They spelt cabana wrong in cabana hotel if you get my drift

Bargearse is a true Ozzie legend.
I wonder how the Late Show got permission to parody Bluey for the Bargearse character.
Hey gang, I've recently gotten into surfing and I am looking to find a good book or two that will introduce me to this world a little better.
It doesn't really matter what genre it is, I'm just keen for any insight into the beautiful and often mystical world of surfing.
Cheers!
