Refrost - They've had a great few months of surf in SEQ / NNSW... E swell and S winds that seemed relentless. I got up there and surfed one of those swells - 9 consecutive days of offshore point surf between head to DOH. It was just one of the many swells that hit eastern Oz this year. THIS IS NOT NORMAL.
Regarding his surfing and the twinnies he's riding, it's certainly entertaining to see the differences. The only thing that bothers me is that for the points he's surfing between the Goldy and Ballina, at that quality of surf, any board is going to go well; in fact, he'd probably be better off surfing thrusters.
For comparing the twinnies the footage in the beachies from Ep 1 around Sydney is a better comparison IMHO.

I've enjoyed surfing shittily on the twins I've had. One was a FW RNF that wasn't set up as a twin but I ran it that way anyway and it slid all over the place. The other is the Fat Murph. I wish I could afford more twins <and all that implies>.
No that’s Ian he rides Chemistry boars. Think he’s on bro deal team with them.
Dane is a midget like me only much younger, dirty blonde with sleeve of tats.

that's a trip, one of my closest friends surfs out there a bunch, is named dane, 34-35 with a sleeve of tats, dirty blond hair, rides logs a bunch and shapes his own backyard twins/ fishes
100% agree. I thought the same thing. Pretty much any board would pull off some clean turns in pumping conditions like that. Most of the people that are watching the review wouldnt have a twinny in those type of conditions unless it was a surf trip.
AUS looks amazing. Visiting Lennox is definitly on my bucket list, although the politics seem pretty gnarly down there at the moment.
aaaah, unless twin fins are preferred over other designs. I would not have picked a thruster for those waves.
I've had plenty of quads and would have liked one rather than a thruster. But at my age, I have no interest in surfing like a CT pro and would ideally draw lines as the board and wave offered. A good single fin or twin would be really fun in those waves.
Not going to turn this into a political twin fin thing - but what politics down here are you worried about?
All the quantine camps, force vaccinations, mask mandates, etc. Seems like the Australian government has lost their minds. Don't want any part in any of that, no matter how beautiful or good the waves are.
Are you absolutely sure you want to open the "lost their minds" can of worms?
edit: actually, you responded to a question, so we'll let you off the hook.
Really?? Last I read, Australian citizens or Visa holders were the only ones allowed to enter AUS without proof of full vaccination?
if you can't get vaccinated you can enter with a medical contraindication exemption saying why you can't be vaccinated.
