I recon 15- 20 kn offshore but the boys did well. Bummer i did not have a tri pod .Chris and Dave got the best waves.
It didn't seem as lumpy as it looks in these pics. Even after the wind got up there were some good waves to be had. Chris scored a few great rides, with some big hacks.
However, the boys shouldn't have slept in - it was just a gentle offshore for most of the morning and really nice . But being Melbourne/Vic, once the wind gets up it usually does so with a vengeance - and at that spot you cop it all. Sean must have had a big lens to get these pics, so I imagine it being buffeted in the wind without a tripod.
