    As a bodyboarder I've caught some great waves on small day's,there's sometimes an epic A frame on the turf bank for bodyboarding,Fanore throws up some daecent waves too for a beginner on a bodyboard.
    I've gotten shacked on some of the reefs on a 3ft day, there was a nice period between the waves.

    Not to go off topic, but any recommendations for a bodyboard for a tall guy?

    I did a week in biarritz recently and didn't enjoy it at all, surfing is a mega complicated sport. I've decided to give it a miss altogether.

    Ah it's not that bad, you just have to put a bit of effort into it particularly at first. If you're not living near the sea though this is easier said than done to be fair.

    I got bored of paddling non stop, and thought wtf am I doing this for. I think surfing is a well marketed sport but it certainly aint for everyone.

    Still on the job hunt, and I don't know anyone there to just move over. My deadline was before the end of the year!:eek::eek:

    Do you keep your board stored in Ireland or the UK?
