Mick Fanning
Just “fanning” the web pages and video blogs for a bit of interesting footage to share, and came across a couple of videos of Mick Fanning. One was footage of Fanning courtesy of Steve Maloney of Sunnycoast Klips here on the Sunshine Coast, and the other by Mick Fanning him self from the Goldie that shares an interesting concept of surfing.
Just a little tad different to river surfing. Check out the tidal surges! Woosh!!

Hope you “like” both clips

BARRELING at Pitta

Jun-6-2011 By Birdie the Boardie

BARRELING at Pitta
Sunnycoast Klips have provided some great footage of local surfers doing their thing at their best spots.
Stevo says “It was pumping and if you were in the right spot when a set marched through, then you were in the running for an all time tube”.
Tucking under some good sections, bailing or running through on others. However, some sick little waves have proved that local surfing talent is on the up, and that Barreling is still fun .

Some sick young locals doing their thing at Pitta, on equally sick waves.

NEW SURFBOARD CARRYING DEVICE-BOARDSLING

boardsling vetical1 NEW SURFBOARD CARRYING DEVICE BOARDSLING

SLING IT!--BOARDSLING

New Surfboard Carrying Device

Surfboard Carrier- Easy As, A…BOARDSLING

How lucky if you only live a couple of minutes to the beach, but if you are like most of us you usually have a lot of walking to do to get to that perfect break.

Boards are sometimes awkward and heavy when you need to carry any distance.

Boardsling Surfboard Carrying Device

There is a way out however, and it’s called a Boardsling surfboard carrier that is surprisingly easy to use. Gone are the heavy board bags with their slings when you use one of these. Simplicity and ease is it’s major feature.

Just a few points in the Boardsling’s favour.

a/ Carries that big heavy board with ease

b/ Don’t need long arms.

c/ Makes a long walk easy.

d/ Helps eliminate sore back and muscles

e/ Hah! Even the kids can carry their own now!

You know it’s available at the Surf-Shop Peregian Beach and it’s only $49.95

So get every body to carry their own boards, and you can bet when you have one and forget to throw it in the car when you leave for the beach, you will definitely kick yourself for doing so. Just leave it attached to your board when you pack it away, that way you won’t forget it, and hang it up by the strap when you get home is the trick.

New Surfboard Carrying Device is as easy as

Available locally at Surf-Shop Peregian beach

Robert August was the second child to “Blackie” and Pat August.

Out of this union the second child, Robert arrived at the end of the War in’45. Blackies well known history for partying, surfing, and his generosity, made the August household the place of choice for all the surfing community over the 50′s and 60′s in the Seal Beach coast line of California.
