AB3 Photos – The Cops

There was some drama at this year’s anything but three. It seems some athoritiiii just can’t believe that a bunch of people could organize a gathering that large without commercial interests involved. Read the captions in the slide show for the whole story, with embellishment where required.

Maggie is hosting 70 or so photos of sick boards, rad shapers and surfers on her site, but she thought you might want to be able to comment and such on these here.

It was great to see lots of you, and even better to ride your boards. Please send ding repair bills for the boards I broke to :

    Nice pictures! I was waiting for some photo documentation to show up from this. Such a cool concept.

    The cop pics are classic. It’s much funner as an adult to toy with the police because you don’t have to worry about them calling your parents and getting in trouble for real.

  2. JP Says:

    It wasn’t actually the cops, it was the lifeguards and park rangers. If the cops had shown up somebody would have got tazered or shot.

    It’s unbelievable but true, the ranger really did say. “One surfboard per person.”

    Yeah, I know, park ranger. But he WANTED to be a cop so bad.

    cops, rangers…they are all rain on the parade to me!

    Surprised nobody got a smoking ticket. Isn’t that illegal now in Enc.?

    Rode some good boards, and one that really didn’t work for me. Was kinda groovy to truly feel that difference within a few minutes of each other. 4 waves, lose the board, go get a different one. Lather, rinse, repeat.

    fascist cunts trying to spoil our fun… Nazi germany is just around the corner.

    pfffft …

    flipping off the authorities out of view from them, like naughty little schoolboys

    Next time, stand up and be a man. Flip them to their face, if you are really pissed off and mean it, and have some balls … they weren’t even tazer toting donut munchers.

    ;)

    you could learn at least that from us convicts down under. [mind you, WE all end up trying to avoid picking up the soap at Long Bay Jail - behind Maroubra beach haha]

  8. clif Says:

    oh, just so you know, what my previous comment is what we in Australia call “taking the piss”.

    no offence intended :P

    [please don't write me a ticket]

  9. rob70 Says:

    ha. i’m glad he didn’t flip the guy off directly, he would have never cooled off. As it was, shawn got to flip him off and the guy wrote his parking tickets and left.

    Whew.

    Bummer I missed this year, had a blast last year. Nice looking boards and chach lookin’ authoritiiiii’s. Looks like a fun day!

  11. Mo_Fo Says:

    Good times for sure. Friday night rocked as well down there.

  12. Surfingjoss Says:

    What ever happened… I must say that Shawn made me smile a lot. And i must admit Shawn :

    YOU RULES!!! :))

    A french surfer who is always surprised to find stupidity where there shouldn’t be…

  13. TRUSTY DUSTY Says:

    What did lawless say? “it’s much funner with an adult toy?” I thought this was a family blog.

    Oh and 70, didn’t you ride my Resin-X Quad? You say to send the bill for that new finbox to replace the one you ripped out on the gouging cutback to Surfy Surfy? I’m on it.

  14. rob70 Says:

    The only thing I ripped out while riding your rX quad was the wave’s lip. Schhhrrrraaaalp!!!!!!
