January Thumbs

By Dan Hutton on January 14, 2016 in Other

Christmas Tree Smell – While the pine needles are a pain in the arse, that distinct smell of Christmas tree can’t be beat.
Perth Standlick – The former Beast cover star took out his first WQS surfing event and a handy $8000 over in Taiwan last month.
George From Surfish – Thanks to the Bondi beachside café manager for lending The Beast an umbrella for our cover shoot.
Vibes On A Summer’s Day – One of Sydney’s best dance music festivals returns to its routes at Bondi Pavilion on January 24.
Andre Botha – Google this bloke and watch him save pro surfer Evan Geiselman at big Pipeline. The bloke is our hero.

Down

Christmas Tree Disposal – Real Christmas trees look and smell great but getting rid of them in mid-January is always a punish.
Foam Board Confusion – It’s now official. You may not ride your foam surfboard in between the red and yellow flags.
Non-Ratings Television – All I can say is thank Christ for Foxtel, Netflix, Stan, Presto and all the other streaming services out there these days.
Mark Mathews’ Shoulder – The local big wave charger took on massive Pe’ahi (Jaws) and had his shoulder ripped from its socket. Ouch!
International Roaming – Don’t do it. Full stop. Just buy a sim card at your destination and text your number to those who need to know it.
