weekend away
Posted: August 20th, 2010 | Author: Luke | Filed under: General banter, Surflog | No Comments »We spent a cold wet and windy weekend on Philip Island last week. It was great to get away from home for a few days and just relax ,and catch up with some close friends.
Had one little surf at Forest Caves, the first and only surf I have had on the Island (I’ve only made it there twice). Small swell with a strong offshore wind, not as cold as I might have anticipated. Very much winter on the Island though, apart from the lack of swell, 2 to 3 foot on the open beaches. I’ll be back there in Summer I think, have only ever seen the place cold, wet and grey!
twin fin hydrofoil

I’ve had 4 surfs on my new 5′ 10″ twin fin hydrofoil from tomosurfboards.com and I’m already pretty happy and can’t wait to get out on it again. I must admit the first surf I had on it left me scratching my head, thinking what have I got myself into! A little converse with Tomo via email and I had an adjusted approach to the board, which made a huge difference. Read the rest of this entry »

new board has landed
Posted: August 3rd, 2010 | Author: Luke | Filed under: General banter, Surflog | 1 Comment »Yep, it’s here, STOKED! Looks so nice, and challengingly different, I can feel a learning curve coming on…
5′10 x 18 3/4″ x 2 1/4″ V1 afterburner (channel bottom). Custom shaped by Daniel Thomson in Lennox Head NSW. http://www.tomosurfboards.com/
Tomo was a pleasure to deal with, and produces a quality, innovative product, there’s no reason to buy a “pop-out” support the grass roots of surfing while it’s still with us!
I’ll be sure to review the board once I get a surf on it and look forward to seeing where it takes me and my surfing.
