Realistic T - Tracks once asked "Perth shitest waves in Auz"?At first this question may prove true for many.However the experience of escaping societies pressures and being at peace with yourself and all surroundings is something that should not be under valued. The great philosphyer Alfred Lord Tennyson said "Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all". For many of us Perth surfers although the waves may be well below expectation we still love it and always will.So the next time someone makes a funny if you say u surfed 2 foot onshore leighton, remember tis better to have surfed and to of had a dig then to have never of surfed at all.
