First surf in over three weeks........and it was pretty fun little wedges.
Was huffing and puffing and struggled..........had so much fun out there.
Great to be outta bed and back in the the salty stuff
Made me laugh Drip
You been sick mate
"where did u attemp to surf thread" <- LOL ...
Had a few waist high clean fun ones on the log with me & a young girl I was giving a few pointers...the most fun was seeing her enjoying the waves & was funny seeing her pull back on the freak chest high sets like it was uber knarly. I didn't say anything...but yeah made the surf a lot more fun
Just had a couple of lovely hours out at the local...windy was kinda funky but the swell was a nice lined up 3-4 foot and there was only 5 of us so all good
Looks like JB is going to land just in time for this.

Looking at the forecast you will have a super time. Just forget about the crowd factor and enjoy. Something I can never do !

Indo has ruined you
Yes it has Tux. Arrived at weekend destination this evening with 45 mins of sunlight left and huge thunderstorms. Managed to sneak out and get 6 fun waves. Would have been more but with the decreasing light and huge down pours I kept mis reading where I needed to be. Dam beachies
Good advice LL. I just don't have a board for the conditions. I have tried the Nano a few times in marginal stuff and it just does not cut the mustard. Been searching for a second hand small wave machine but come up short so far. Still looking. Should have just got a new one on day one and got the Monies worth. The longer I leave it the harder it gets to justify.
Been back since Dec 29 and had less than 10 surfs. 3 have been good. Been to the beach a fair bit but did not bother - crowds and conditions. Done a fair bit of driving looking for waves. Just one of those things lately - when I am flat out the waves are good and plentiful and when I am not they are not there for the taking. Jan has never been a good month for me over here - like to wait till everyone goes back to work and school. I always encourage people to take lots of leave in Jan so I have to be on the tools and working - harder to get annoyed then. It's great at work as enough of the staff have kids these days and want to take leave through the school holidays - perfect ! Means I can always get the leave I want / desire.
Oh well that's the way it goes sometimes so can not complain. March, April and May are looking pretty good at the moment so happy to do the hard yards
I thought the nano was the go on marginal surf and the evo in the good stuff. Grab any board and get out there , the surf you bail on is a missed opportunity I'm getting less fussy with age ??
Super fun waves this morning. A few good chunks coming through at times. Lots of current. Best surf of 2016 so far
According to swellnet the swell is meant to hang around into the week so I'll surf all week . Don't usually bother much with weekends and I'm on night shift anyway
The Sunny coast has a few solid lumps coming through.
The northern end seems slightly bigger
Was a little wonky on the high tide but still pretty good.
Got out and had a dig on a beachy near an Island solid 4' with the odd 6' bombs coming through.
Should be better in a day or too when things settle a bit.
couldn't run today so I rode to snapper and back.
some very solid fast moving 4 to 5 ft waves there and at the alley.
with the devils winds on it looks dangerous.
of course I would have been out there in a flash
the surf is cranking. doesn't look like many spare ones at cooly.
im out with 2 lots of stitches in my back.
might be worth having a look tho

Yeah pretty crook. There were some beautiful waves around today but as usual and the crowds were full on.
I managed to snag a reasonable parking spot so did the long walk and checked out the activity On all the points. I won't tell you which one was going off but if you walk a long way you will know.
I am out for up to six months, but will not know for sure until after specialist visit on Feb 8.
