coastline surfing

this week has been premo dw ing conditons on the goldie. tuesday and wednesday particularly memorable. what made it good was a small swell running in the right direction with the wind swell.

maybe last one tomorrow, then it's game on again tuesday on

cheers



ps, to some that doesn't look that windy, but its usually quite good at a bit more then 15 knots. with the right direction swell the wind just knocks it on and you along more

I took a couple of days off this week and the car park was just as full as any weekend I'm doing something wrong

gee, i usually just go when its windy and work it out as i drive along south and look at a few cams. but checking todays charts on the breeze, it looks like your hawaiian trades.

tuesday the planets aligned or something, probably longer period which suits the bullet for sure. the bullet seems really good even at the start when the wind and swell are just kicking in- i'm usually well ahead of the guys there.

however of the outcrops like elephant rock and alley etc, not as good- too steep and short with the backwash, although not to bad today

you just have to hang tuff till you clear those spots. on wednesday straight pass the alley i got a filthy long set of runners where i was suppose to stop and wait.

luckily shieldsy had the same thing.

gold coastne spit runs- not much fun at all ,way too short. that where say a 14'bullet with steering might come into play

cheers

i haven't tried a bullet 14 yet.hoping the demo comes up from sydney around easter
