I spent the summer of 97'/98' on the Gold Coast, El Niño year, 3 months we stayed at Broadbeach, waves absolutely pumped on the beaches, banks super lined up, Straddie was such a fun wave as well, loved going over there, the paddle was an experience as an 18 year old Cornish kid though haha. I remember a guy used to do water taxi's but you'd get no respect if you took one of those, apparently someone burnt it down as the crowds were getting ridiculous! might of been a rumour. What a summer, great memories. (plus the Edge nightclub at Broady Thursday nights) haha epic
Wow there's some talent out there, some of those drops were incredible. They're magicians to me.

That Dudes first turn on this vid was epic. Great footage 👊
Just got back from a holiday at Straddie where I grew up. Paradise still, miss living there ❤
Epic riding , crunched in the barrels
1:35 oh no!!! Best wave of the day
When was this?
Envy envy envy. Except for the heart thumping paddle across
Where I'm at 😢 only in the winter🌊
You and just about every other surfer on the planet.
OooOOooo
3:17 ARREST THAT MAN.
Probably some boards snapped that day.
Looks like good exercise, but waves not to goog
