Tiny waves, dark-dark morning, wind coming…tricky to get a decent shot of anything in the dark!
I’m selling some of my Mavic 3 drone kit with the mega RC Pro controller. I paid $6,300 a few years ago, current bid is only $1999! Grab a good deal and have a bid. (Will ship)

Bondi Beach is poised to honour one of its most remarkable locals with a proposed bronze statue of Pauline Menczer—the only surfer, male or female, from Bondi to clinch a world title. The ‘Pauline In Bronze’ campaign aims to raise $150,000 to commemorate her legacy at South Bondi, where she honed her skills and broke barriers in the surfing world.
Pauline’s journey is a testament to resilience and passion. Growing up in Bondi, she began surfing at age 12, often as the sole female ‘grommet’ in the lineup. Despite battling rheumatoid arthritis from her teens, she triumphed to become the 1993 Women’s World Surfing Champion. Her story, highlighted in the documentary Girls Can’t Surf, underscores the challenges faced by women in a male-dominated sport and the strides made toward equality.
The proposed statue not only celebrates Pauline’s achievements but also serves as an inspiration for future generations, emphasizing the importance of representation and recognition in sports. With only 6% of Sydney’s statues depicting women, this initiative marks a significant step toward rectifying gender disparities in public monuments.
To support the campaign and contribute to this historic tribute, visit the official GoFundMe page: Pauline’s Legacy Belongs at Bondi. Join TRACKSMAG & Pauline in Bondi for the ‘Pauline in Bronze’ Bondi community fundraiser at CURLY LEWIS Fri, 13 Jun, 6pm – 11pm get tix
