I use to get pitted there before i fell into alcohol addiction but still got love for all the cronulla boys , great to see them videos.. shout out to Ben Sawyer my old mate who never let me down ! Im 40 now i use to surf there 20 years ago growing up in cronulla from a south american background !!
Yer Willy!!! Well done son! Good view from the jump of . Brings back memories of gettin the flippers on lookin out at the cruel mistress hoping it all goes well. Soldier on Willy
Wow this takes me back. I lived on Cronulla Point for about 4 years in the mid to late 90's when I was in my late 20's to early 30's. I'd started body boarding in Coffs Harbour a few years previously. I surfed the point quite a lot, getting a few good waves when i could but it was always very competitive. I loved cabbage patch though. I remember going out to Shark Island maybe no more than a dozen times, and my best memory was on a day like this. I took off about half way (white rock is it?), got barreled a bit then clipped my right knee on surge, but made it out. Lost a chunk out of my wet suit and knee but it was the best wave of my life. I also remember being dragged across the rocks like one of your other videos where you hurt your knee. Thanks for your honesty. It's amazing to have a wave like this in Sydney!
Tlocke Surf Edits I’ve been doing it for 3 years and finally made it to the next round, last year lol. Great fun. Especially when surfing with legends. Wish they still had comps here in Hawaii.
I'm late to the game guys, but Willy, I can't imagine how much your followers miss you. Would you be so kind to give us an update? Hope you are doing well and happy holidays.
Nice riding brother... I think second or third wave I was thinking you were gonna get tumbled, 2 or 3 times, but you made it through!! Nice work mate😎👍
belambi goes to the left of the point where the reef is on the beach if you know what i mean.. but when the bombie is breaking and you get that big current you get some of the suckyest beach break waves
Je rêve d avoir un dixième de la qualité de ces vagues en Vendée !!! Je sais pas comment tu fais pour autant rien faire dessus !!! Nous un "tube" creux dans l année c est exceptionnel !!!
He rides a 41. He's a bit shorter and normally with his build you'd wanna use a 42+, but he prefers a shorter board because he likes the way it feels slotting into barrels. Ultimately it depends on the kind of waves you like to ride, how big they are and how you like to ride. I recommend before buying, do some board swaps with some friends when you are out in the surf and see how each board size feels so you can decide for yourself. For example I'm a tall guy and ppl line me should ride a 42 (Hardy is same height and he rides 42 also). But I did a board swap with a friend who road a 40 and I got the best barrel of my life with it -- so I bought a 41 and am enjoying it.
Mahalo for the view ,ive always wanted to go out at shark island ,probably wont ever get down under ,i too only entered one contest didnt move on but it was fun my friend was commentatating my rides i still remember it to this day. probabably 25 years ago Pyramid Rock on Marine base island of Oahu, Hawaii ,dont be like me, enter more contest aloha !!! DCBarrells!!!
Here's a tip buddy, rolls are easier than spins, just hit the lip and flip the board over ur head while ur body goes with it, try it, I guarantee u will get it quicker than spins, that's what we wanna see next vid, a nice big El Rollo...
damn that sucks that yyou didn't go on. I just recently went into a comp (surfing) and landed 2 in the 1st heat then the semi finals got 3 and in the finals got 5 out of like 16 surfers

Willy! what sized board does your buddy ride? im looking for a board but im a bit on the heavier side so i was wonder what he uses to shred. Thanks!
