Who said there are no waves on the east coast in summer?

Nice one Supmaori.

there were actually waves here today Casso
Left home probably 4.45 am ......definitely dark. Looked at Makorori Point. Big and ugly.
Went to town beach. Still dark. Towball and friends turned up.
Still dark but slightly not dark. But they insisted someone had to paddle out to see what was happening and that that person was me So I did.
But think Supmaori would agree with me that you couldn't jump across the ditch from aussie at this time of year and be guaranteed surf.
Looking pretty good for the next 3 days though

Makorori pretty cool bananas today. Went out at centres......just me out. My 9'5 speed did the trick in big building peaks that raced off left and right with 15 foot faces. Survived a few free falls with a fin in the water only occasionally.
When i was tired and exhausted......chucked camera on my board for a couple of waves.......but wind had got up by then

Thanks Griz

beautiful scenery, great rides! The hills look dry.....must be summer sun and little rain. I was out surfing in snow a couple of mornings ago. Looking forward to spring and a few mm less of neoprene.

no snow here....no rain either. Was the driest January in a zillion years. Febuary not looking much better.
Water is warm as toast. Just wearing a 2/3 to avoid minor scrapes and abrasions. And the impact vest for a bit of extra "pop up"
very soothing if you lose your board also.
Although the other day i was getting hammered and thought "thank goodness have impact vest"
Then realised that in the heat of the paddle out had forgotten to put it on
