ahh, i see.
hmmm...i'm sittin on the fence, i feel for shore boys, mainly cus when i lived at muriwai valley i would drive over some road grafity that abused shoreboys..and i always thought that was a bit w@nky...so shoreboys gets my sympathy vote.
and random is interesting cus of the variety of stuff that turns up.
i think i'll just continue to even the race...just for the hell of it.

Although I don't believe in the death penalty, I would still be suggesting life imprisonment with hard labour for the crimes against Shore Boys perpetrated by that criminal Blunt.
But Spud you forgot one thing.
I AM THE LAW
Sounds like it's time for a revolution.

Milford Reef @ 6-8ft
i dont believe it
--------------------------------

How about this then?
The brown water gives it away 
Actually the muddy water hides a very nasty reef which I still have scars from.
still doesnt look that big but not much to reference by, tho suppose its breaking a fair way out surfed it a couple of years back in a hideous stormy that was breaking miles out never ending paddle haha

That is Milford Reef, it's just down the road from my house. That is what it was like during Cyclone Ivy. It's not 6-8ft, it's 4-5ft. It's a pretty filthy wave though. There was plenty of barrell time going donw on low tide (the above pic is high tide).
Also, the first shot from way above is surely The Spit down in the lower Wairarapa. Always been keen to hit that spot. If the conditions are right maybe I'll head that way for this years road trip.
I don't think Milford Reef has ever been 6-8ft. It would require a 6m+ NE swell, which I don't recall ever happening. If it were any bigger than 5ft the left would close out on all tides as it is quite rocky the whole way through there. The right hander might still work though. That said, there are a plethera of about 5 point breaks that would probably work onthat size all within a 10min walk of Milford Reef, so if it did ever get that big it'd be game on for all those people who wanted to surf "once in a lifetime" waves.
I was joking Jabes, both pics are in Bali.
#1 is Balyan(sp?) which looked like fun until we got out there and saw it. Very shifty peak before it would heave and explode. Very heavy. Saw a water buffalo get slaughtered on the beach too for afters.
#2 is Canggu, a very nice beach/reef combo.

In that first pic jabes, how big is the west when it breaks out that far? Might give you some idea. It's a river bar and you can just see the river at the bottom left of the pic.

Actually I must confess, all my pics are at Milford.
It gets very good when no one is looking.
Man, I'm getting confused.

lol..none of them is milford!
there is no 5 points within 10 mins of milford, theres one and a semi point thats hasnt broke properly in more than 10 years
--------------------------------
Don't lie freshie!
It looks increidbly like Milford in the first shot. The wave even putts out to pretty much nothing on the inside, just like Milford.
But I should have paid more attention - the foliage is a definite give-away. There are no flax bushes anywhere near the waterfront at milford reef. Just houses right on the beach then a concrete path. Foot in mouth indeed.
Cry time.
If the Shore ever fires up properly with a 6m NE swell, then we can all meet at Milford Beach and I'll walk you all around the various points you could choose to surf. Mostly lefts, but a couple of rights in there too (although I couldn't know for sure, cause the only time it ever got big enough for some of the spots to fire up I spent the half the day at Milford Reef and half the day at a Spot X up near Orewa).

yeah thats the part i meant is no real reference to see how far out it is. and river bars are deceptive too at the best of times

Yeah wasn't until we got about halfway out we had the uh-oh moment.

Cyclone Bola pretty sure that was a 6 metre swell. Somebody will probably correct me tho
--------------------------------
Have you checked the other side ?
there is only Tiri which is a right and hasnt broken in 10 years +. Oneils is a point but thats it.
do u mean milford sound?
--------------------------------
Bola I remember clean 4ft waves near Colville.
oh dear 
why so serious?
How's the arm?
Caves & bjd showing their age...don't ask me how I know that 
i surfed kirra during cyclone bola...was defiantly overhead(local shop was calling it 6ft..i dunno what ruler they were using) & quite possibly the longest most perfect barrels i have witnessed..i got a few barrels..but mostly i ate sand.

The Z shaped wound was cut by the surgeon so she could fix up the lacerated artery.

Truly a shining example for us all, closely followed by Jabes.
Truly a special place in Heaven for you both.
Amen

Bless you my child.

No need Brother Spud, your shining example speaks for itself.
Hallelujah!
Your support for the Holy Church of Spud has not gone unnoticed brother sir fir the pious. You can be assured of taking your place along side me when the day of reckoning arrives. I now must issue this command: Go out amongst the heathen masses and preach the good word of the Holy Church of Spud. These are my commandments for the masses:
1/ The Holy Church of Spud declares that SUP riding is an abomination and anybody partaking in this forbidden activity is surely damned.
2/ The Holy prophet Spud, humble servent of the Holy Church of Spud declares that the Unholy Church of Blunt is to be avoided at all costs. Any Blunt teachings are to be ignored, ridiculed or destroyed.
3/ The infidel lands of Random Posts must never be visited by any follower of the Holy Church of Spud, unless for the purposes of attempting to convert the deceived masses to the one true path.
4/ The great topic, Shore Boys, is the house of the Holy Church of Spud. no promotion of the most wicked Church of Blunt , or the discussion of things SUP will be tolerated.
The humble prophet spud has spoken. Now he is tired and will sneak off for a quick nap.
