What jacket(s) are you wearing at the moment?

[Greg Gale]

All set for a 2 week surf trip!

 

[Brettafett]

You are a Legend Greg!
(I see lots of cool stuff, but no surfboard )

 

[Smithy]

I was going to say that too...

Greg you've forgotten the bloody surfboard!

 

[Brettafett]

Vicky is going to be carrying that!

 

[Smithy]

 

[Greg Gale]

Da-yum, the surfboard! thanks!

No, I actually don't have a surfboard, living 2000+ km from the closest break, I figured it's better to rent one. Then I don't have to carry it around half the world, and I can always rent one that's best for the given conditions

 

[Smithy]

Very wise Greg, they're a bitch to travel with as well. I used to surf back home in NZ but gave it up.

Have fun mate!

 

[Brettafett]

haha yes indeed, smart move. I no longer have a board either, no space. Jackets have taken all of that !
Have you seen the conditions?

Jacket weather today, Billabong Sportswear, vintage war-neoprene, dark seal, trim wartime fit 4th FG style. No sleeve rideup either just gave it a very heavy cold war treatment

..thx for sharing.

Sweet! Looks like a fun Mini-Tanker you rented there. I need to get out to the beach a few more times before it gets too cold on the Oregon coast. I still have a board but since I am 2 hours drive away, I don't get in the water as much as I want to these days.

Enjoy it!

 

[Smithy]

Haha classic Greg!

Looking good buddy, like a surfing magazine cover shot. Ok ....... here’s the the question we’re all waiting for, but no one wants to ask so I’ll be the brave soul ( read that as dirty old man) who asks.
Wheres the picture of your girlfriend that we’er all quietly and patiently waiting to see

 

[Brettafett]

Glassy!!!
Looks like someone had you though... Someone painted the inside of your flight goggles and mask white, you have a mark there!

63°F here this morning, so I have on my ELC cape A-1. Sleeves are salty and a bit tight, but it photos well.
