I would just be turning round and going home to do something else if I was faced with a beach that looked like that.

In the great SW atm...thought conditions were perfect for Windmills & just put on my wettie, grabbed my shortie & hiked down to find it was a bit outta control. Lots of water moving around, just big bombs coming from all angles over double head. Tempted to give it a go, but wasn't keen on my own. Chick jogged down & told me bears was chockers. So I thought fark it I'll just do a simple run down to Yallingup coz it was 830, needed to pop back to Dunsborough for my LB & onshore expected about 1100. SW is classic for doing the carpark hop only to find it turning onshore after stuffing around.

Rolling round the bend into Yallingup we were greeted by massive crowds but I got a great carpark. Some bloke was standing on his head for about 5 mins steady as a rock while we grabbed our gear. Then a good looking German chick counted down to let him know he'd made his goal.

There were a lot of short boards out at Yallingup & I spotted a peak that sets were breaking wide of everyone running into the shallow end section. Fairly consistent head & 1/2 clean waves with a a wide open wall to play on that Yalls is famous for. A lot fun & then something awesome happened. I caught this good size set wave & I was just surfing down from a top turn when this dolphin came bursting out of the wave beside me to about level with my head only 3 feet away & came crashing down next to me before speeding off. Couple of guys were paddling out & were like woohoo...I was like fisting the air like I'd been barreled at pipe...stoked

Yes that always amuses me as well. Some folk just don't like to drive 15-20 mins for some good ones.

Onshore bumpy dribble here today so I paddled the river instead. Doesn't hurt to keep the fitness up.

Had so much fun at Yallingup yesterday I thought I'd just keep it simple & go there again. But it was small & offshore wind effected. Looked at smiths from the North end & couldn't see anything with much shape. So drove down to honeycombs which was almost maxing out at head & 1/2 to occasional double head. Looked like a lot of work. The reefbreaks to the South end of that stretch looked tempting on the binoculars although an early onshore was forecast.

I grabbed the shortie & got out easily through a rip on the north end of the beach. Most uniform waves were fast breaking lefts off a rip on the South end into the middle of the beach that had a relentless push towards the beach. If you went too far in you'd have to walk across the sandbar against the strong current until it let go a bit where the waves were breaking, then dash out or head out the North end or be a very strong paddler. I had a couple of waves & went out on the rip until a medium set wave damn near tore one of my booties off with it power. Third wave I got a good long ride into the middle & battled a relentless set as the wind turned light onshore....I gave up, it was as expected a lot of work & yeah. If I drove to the next place it would of turned onshore as I hit the water....missus was happy she filmed a pod of dolphins

Not feeling satisfied I went & had a look as South Point which looked as beautiful as always. Love that bay & there were some fun chest to head continual cutback waves with very little wall looking tempting. Just not frequent enough. I had a lengthy chat with a French bloke who had driven around Oz from Cairns right around to Mornington Peninsular before heading straight across to Esperence/Albany & through to Margs. He'd had an epic 4 month Oz adventure that was cool to hear.

I decided to skip a desperado surf & take the missus somewhere nice for a swim. Popped back to Bunker bay for a swim, some fish & chips at cafe on the beach & a bottle of Deep Woods Margaret River Rose on one helluva beautiful day...not stoked, just really happy

Got a few knee high lefts on a high tide bank in a protected corner. Not too bad . Very uncrowded ( just me for a while ) got plenty. Nothing to write home about but good enough to put up here. Happy Australia day

Snuck out early on my own yesterday to surf a SW reef I've wanted to have a go on for a long time. I've never seen anyone surf it, kind of a no man's land kinda wave & low quality compared to surrounding waves that are much suckier. But I was pretty happy with a fat slow peeling reefie to myself just down the road straight out from the car park

Then drove home passing the crowds headed in the opposite direction, listening to the triple J hot 100. Enjoyed a few drinks with friends in the arvo comparing a $40 bottle of Rose to a 2 for $25 bottle of Rose from the same winery. We weren't pro enough to tell what made the $40 cost so much more & I hope I we never are

Scored a mid morning cross shore quick surf at the local this morning with yet more summer swell. Looking like a bloody good year.
