I’m not much of a surfer. I like the idea of it but honestly I just couldn’t be bothered to learn. So I stuck to using a boogie board with a pair of fins because there’s virtually no learning curve to that. Anyway – it all means I don’t follow the surf forecast or care particularly if a decent swell’s coming, so when I rock up at the beach and the surf is pumping and the line-up’s packed, I don’t complain that I didn’t get the memo. Nice to the Gerringong Surf Club boat out in the swell though.
