7S Superfish II – Forklift Damage


7S Superfish II – Forklift Damage
Its great when you are made aware, why the delivery of boards you were expecting, wern’t going to come at all.
You see,… some one ran over them with a Fork Lift at the transport depot (won’t mention the company) and then simply put them in a corner and didn’t bother to really let any body know.
We were on to the supplier and unbeknown to them, all things were going well, should have been in transit “but its hectic and we really cant trace them because of the volume of stock flowing” I thought that’s what all the computer tracking was good for…apparently not.
Finally, the moment we got word, replacement boards ...

Kelly Slater Portrait - Lizzi Connor : WTF

Lizzi says “I have worked as an art tutor with children, adults and people with disabilities. I have worked as an art tutor/youth worker in flexible education programs and government youth programs, both with at “at risk” youth, using art as a tool of engagement as well as a powerful therapeutic tool for marginalized young people”.

The Cruise Ship Terminal-Broadwater

The Cruise Ship Terminal-Broadwater

An age old technique of “bait and switch” or “divide and conquer” in relation to the back down of the Cruise Ship Terminal proposal at Kirra, for the equally insane proposal of one at the Broadwater, has got the Supporters of “Save Our Spit” protest group, and many others opposing any Cruise Ship Terminal at all, in an absolute lather of discontent. “The plans don’t stack up, and the environmental cost and public amenity lost, is just far too great to measure” a spokesperson from “SOS” said.

Waves Winds and Tides

Waves Winds and Tides

From time to time we here at Surf-Shop get asked “what’s the tide doing?”
Well, all that ask are obviously some sort of watermen or another. Whatever rocks your boat to do with the Waves, Winds, or Tides, we all know we can’t get enough of it.
This Surf-Shop Peregian Beach blog hasn’t dealt with the complete Waves Winds and Tides picture in the past, as there are a number of great sites that do, and I wont list them all here, but, we’ll make an exception with just this one. It has been worthy of our notice over the last year that we have been following it. Seabreeze has been very accurate, in real time, on a daily basis.
