YES smh I was on the 10 foot log,it was very hard work today the surf was too small but at least we got wet.

We surfed Kirra the a SB board meeting at another coffee joint drove up the top of green mount and bumped into a rather rattled regular follow longboarder.I ask how was it mate? he replied ok until he got chased out by a 4 or 5 foot Shark at LM.He said it swam under him and another guy and was heading north to greenmount.5 mins later it returned and swam under them again they paddled in and alerted the clubbies who had a large bunch of nippers in the water.

Big beach day, I'm rted...took the log out this morning for some micro fun. I thought my log had good glide, but man does she have some epic glide without a leggy. Was only a few people out so no worries

Then had my third wind surf after lunch. Really good wind direction & speed. Was stoked to be able to go out, turn around without falling, come back in & then do the walk of shame back to my starting point coz I can't hug quite tight enough for the wind yet...but yeah, had a good beach day

Picked up heaps as expected with yesterdays wind. Was breaking a bit quick though & had big close out sections for the sets. Took the log out to get in early & gun for the shoulder to get through. Peeled through better as the tide came up & I went in for the shortie when the pack slimmed down to 10. There was only 5 of us for the last hour, surf was just getting better. Unfortunately you can only surf so long before you feel like your arms are gonna drop off, so a little over 4 hours was enough for me. Absolute magic day...another day in paradise

Unfortunately its looking pretty bad for the next few days...

My local looking delightful on the webcam. Anyone want bets on it looking like this in 2 1/2 hours?

These things should be banned - it teases and taunts so often while I am work. I can almost hear Hughie laughing...

I had a don't look first surf at my local this arvo, "what's a don't look first surf???" glad you asked.

That's when you know it will be absolute crap, so you stay in the car park behind the dunes, don't bother walking over to have a look, get your wetty on, the board waxed and the car locked, then walk over with the board to have a look.

That way, no matter how bad it is, you'll probably still go in, because you went to so much trouble already.

Turned out to be a good sesh after all, got one screaming little right that was so good, I let out a hoot as I was fanging across the face up near the snotty end

Paddled out with a slight onshore. An hour later my mate and me looked at each other and went, "This is crap...wanna go?...Yep." The left had a section shutting down, the right had a section shutting down. When we came down the hill there were three guys out. When we paddled out there were 15.

You gotta laugh.

And it was still better than not surfing and being at work.

Oh yeah. Four foot.
