All the Hits: From Surf City to Drag City
Included on this two-disc collection are over 50 songs plus outtakes, singalong instrumental versions, radio promos, and interview clips, ranging from (as the title clearly implies) surf classics like “Surf City” and “Ride the Wild S urf” to hot-rod anthems “Bucket T” and “My Mighty GTO.” Collectors will revel over this (un)healthy (over)dose of summer sun and fun, by far the best and best-sounding collection yet released for this duo who were nothing less and nothing more than the Beach Boys that never graduated from Beach Blanket High.

I am headed to Myrtle Beach for just a couple days… I am a freshwater fisherman but would really like to do some surf fishing while there. Normally I would want to target a certain type of fish but since my stay will be so short, I just want to catch some, any kind, of fish. What are my best odds?

Surf Fishing is all about targeting fish that make a living from food that is stirred up by the waves, and tide movement. These fish often dig in the sand or mud for crabs etc. Essentially scavengers!

You need to be able to cast your line approx 40-50 yards, or behind the breaking waves if possible. A local tackle shop might be able to advise you on the best sinker to attach to your line, as the sinker does most of the work when casting out.

Do a search on You Tube as well.

What is the best curling iron to get big loose waves?
1. I have fine straight hair, thats quite hard to style
2. about £25.00-£30.00 at the most (or less)
3. quite good quality
4. Any links? preferrably something i can buy from boots or argos or something?

thanks sooo much x :D

CONAIR! I have it and it works like magic! It leaves your curls looking smooth and silky all day long.

i’m going to Hawaii to visit some family in January (they are old, they don’t surf) for 2 weeks. I have always wanted to learn to surf, but before I’ve always been scared. I am a really good swimmer (former high school swim team), and i’m still in pretty good shape. Is it possible to learn to surf in 2 weeks. I’ll be on the Big Island, where do I go, how do i find an instructor? Keep in mind I’m not made of money.

Sure . . . you probably could learn to stand up

and hoot all over yourself.

Big Island . . .

You can learn from Rory Russell if he is not stoned. Probably the only guy to win pipeline masters stoned.

I’m going to a camp in Costa Rica. There we will learn how to surf. what is the chance of my survival in class. We only have 3 days of surfing lessons. to what point of expertise should i be at by the end of the 3 days. for beginners: does it kill your muscles, do you need a lot of muscles, really strong?

You should understand the basics of surfing after three days. However it will take some time to master them. I would recommend you start swimming laps in a pool so that you are comfortable in the water etc. Although it is different being in the ocean vs. the pool it will help. By swimming you are also building the muscles you use for paddling.
