I saw Billabongs new CEO Launa Inman on TV last night.

I thought she was the type to run David Jones or a bank. I couldn't believe she's running Billabong.

This is actually the CEO of one of our iconic surf brand.




I don't think she'll get it.

Assets of 1 billion. Profit after extraordinaries $30mill. Does she think it's an airline?

At least she won't clear off from the office when the surf is up.

Isn't Billabong a clothing brand? (But marketed towards the surfing lifestyle)

Yes.

But they've made some good movies. I still remember every second of surf into Summer.

^ yeah see... I'm not sure which is better. Being powered up and blasting around non-stop, all afternoon is pretty damn fine. Compared to bobbing around in a line up.
Actually, I think I'll take the low-level flying thank you.
