Spongers may have the confidence to drop in where a surfer might think twice, but they have less to lose. For one thing, they're holding on to a MAT. I've never really liked the idea of my surfboard being attached to me when I'm taking a beating..but that's the risk I take.. I mean.. I guess if your fin flies off your foot and slices your head open..I guess that'd be a gnarly aspect of bodyboarding...
Great video. What an insanely heavy wave. Well gone, lads. Stand up, bodyboarders, etc., who cares? Much respect to all who would go out and ride there. I've surfed most my life and would be perfectly happy sitting on the cliff...WATCHING.
i bodyboard, and my mates surf. we all want the same thing - good waves, and the only real difference is that surfers stand up and bodyboarders lie prone. so if your gonna hate on bodyboarders or on surfers get the fuck out, no one here wants to listen to your crap
Good on you Maloney604 - what a comment!!! I thought most of us grew out of that 80's mentality between lids and sticks! Obviously you're still stuck there. Hope you grow up sometime and move on. Best wishes on that.
shut up you mainland fucks talking shit bout how things are down this way. TRUTH is that the surfers and bodyboarders get along no worries, in and out of the water. and amsay00? what the fuck?! fuck the bra boys aint got shit on a few local boys and it dont matter who "found it" its not about land rights its about having a go out there, and thats all it is.
man i wish we could stop with this shit of sticks v boards its so gay. This surfer once dropped in on me and claimed it but in the end hit me and cut up ma board that reli pissed me off
amsay ur right..... bodyboarders get in our way and us surfers put up with them, but what pisses me off is when modyboarders claim a wave and declare it theres. u seem like an alright guy..... at least u respect everyone in the water
Er, standups didn't find it, fishermen did. I used to go out with my friends and watch this shit break before anyone decided they were going to try and surf it. I don't even know what the fuck you're talking about with the bra boys. I used to live in Tassie, and maybe cause it was a small place and waves pretty uncrowded, but boogers and stand ups got along fine. Also, waves like this, ours, shark island, blackrock are sort of made for bodyboarding. Tow in? Go buy a set of water skis.
the only place in australia crazier than this is the right

the step at shippies is incredible
+ pretty sure bodyboarders can drop off that step a million times better than a surfer can
but surfers carve better
there are pros and cons for both

Yea I agree with austencia, if you're still hating against surfers or bodyboarders you are just pathetic. Get over it faggots, we all love the ocean.

i dont have a problem with surfers,
