    Going back to go pro, watch the wilde life crew/ backwoods crew's footage, the cut a hole in the traction bad and put the go pro in there. Great for tube shots.

    I did think of webbed gloves...but passed on it, I usually surf in the cold with minimal gloves and hate the mittens.
    Kneeboards are definitely cool but not for me.
    GoPro was cool for the first week and first set of cool videos. I am tired of watching people in barrels on that ****. It's almost like ruining the magic for me. A nice photo is awesome, 10min of it just sucks. Every swinging **** has one. There are prolly 500 surfers getting barreled somewhere in Indo with one right now.
    Enough already.

    Amen. Although I will say that the Raven shots from Sandy deep inside a filthy, semi truck sized tube gave me the chills. Go Pros should be for... Pros. And also, loading the cam looking backwards is utter narcissism & terrible footage for anyone watching other than your mom.

    People who post on forums using self-styled 'look at me I'm a core surfer dude' monikers.

    What does that even mean Yankmee? Are you a "core surfer?" I work on my core when I'm not surfing.

    Hell, for that matter: Julian(a) Wilson and Kolohe (Chloey) Andino style wetsuits. White on the right half of your body and creamcicle doo doo orange on the left.

    Gotta dispute this, at least in this instance. A buddy of mine was living in a shoebox apt. in Manhattan and wanted a longboard to learn on and bought a pope bisect. Could never have fit a longboard in his apt. but the thing got him in the water and he successfully learned and now has a proper quiver. Pretty situation-specific, but I think for a lot of these things (maybe even the frog gloves) there might be times when we can't use the blanket kook label.

    Yeah, two-tone wetsuits lack style.

    Uh huh, those are nipples.

    i think it's hysterical how clean-cut & just-like-everyone-else matt wilkinson used to be...look at footage from the 2007 search contest in chile. short hair, no bizarre one-off wetsuits.

    Homophobia is lame. Seriously. Its the 21st Century, its time to evolve.

    Also lame: Boards made in China. The skull n crossbones era of surf clothes in the late 90's and the hardcore overly serious attitude that followed. How seriously should you be taken if your sport involves wearing booties?

    Well, it wasn't aimed at anyone in particular it just happened to end up posted after one of your posts.
    As for your question, I'd say your defensive reaction & name-calling are self-explanatory.

    As for your core....TMI, sparky....you may want to look up the NJShredMachine & have a bench-off.

    HUH? I don't get it...

    I don't see any mention of homosexuality in the original post. It sounds to me like you're the one stereotyping! Just saying... :p
