I can imagine, you guys have had some nice light winds. Kmaz & the Gu have had early arvo fun waves for the last 4 days
Was a touch onshore then a big storm came through and it was glassy in 10 mins then went perfectly offshore. The Thing was I could not see more than 15-25m whilst ot rained for 25mins it was so dark. So all my line ups for that spot were out. Copped a few on the head and missed a few as a result but wave count still very very high 
been riding the Evo as a thruster today and it just performs so much better than any of my quad setups.

I wish copping sets on the head was my problem 
Need more pics mate 
Waist to shoulder high with a slight onshore. The Fountain of Youth wasn't my pick of boards but went okay. My wife had the car and the fins for the Wahoo. I had one one of those "doh" moments as I pulled the board out thinking I was about to have a ripper surf and realised I took the fins out for the drive north.
I couldn't help myself and looked at the swell buoy back home - it's cracking. Solid 6 foot with bigger set. Oh well. I got wet and there was one other bloke on my peak.
Absolutely r00ted...local was flat as yesterday, I was only expecting waist high waves with a devil wind kicking in around 9am. So headed down at 0700 & was surprised to find an early chrissy pressy of head to head n 1/2 freight trains with hardly any one out for 4 1/2 hours & almost no wind. Tryed for a 5 hour surf to beat this years record before the end of the year but my body said no. Wave frequency had been too high
Looking to be super blowy tomorrow, should be good for a windsurf

If you saw me in the water today you would know how true that is. Witty repartee finished - I got nothing.

Nice work Mick. I did spend 5hrs in the water today - over 2 surfs though. Glad you got that swell as we will have it shortly. Xmas day here looks amazing with a good chunk of swell and friendly tides with the big moon. It should be the best type of xmas I could hope for. But will wait before getting super excited - but 5-7ft at 17 seconds has me pretty amped for some magical times. Theoretically it should be pumping. Boxing day will also be the same. Hoping for 1.5 overhead with some bigger sets. Should be pumping everywhere
Boxing Day will be the pick of it for me, Ted. I have a little reef north of town that should be crack-a-lacking. Next week is looking pretty good for when I get back down south.

Lifes good on a seaplane
A spot of fishing there lacey
second session at the alley was good . lower tide walls lined up very nicely for the lsd twinnie.
ripper board. the litres didn't feel to much at all.
I would call this board better than the nano I had of the same litres.
anyway . I reckon this board makes selling the 9.3 a easier decision.
to the horror of some that will leave me with just one mal- a good one tho

Lacey your post above we've all read before,many times in fact,as much as we enjoy your froth of your new boards which all sound like keepers.But sadly that soon changes and your onto the next best thing only to repeat yourself.
Forget brands for a minute please but a 207 9.6 x 23 x 3 would be what I'd be making you if your were a team rider.I don't mean to be harsh on you but I've seen you surf once or twice Sure this morning you were having a great time and surfing well but do you really need a 10 foot board,yes your say your spending too much time on longboards and want to ride short more and thats cool. Don't judge me you know its all about the art
Anyway long term friend long time surf mate just adding my two cents,sleep well tonight and don't let this post make your restless

cool.
I never deny changing boards- I get bored no matter how good the board is, but I surf more than once a week too.
talked about the waves, liked the board , compared it to another big litre board, didn't see keeper mentioned. I must look again 
problem for you is I actually like the seaplane- forgive me, but it looks like being around for bit
you want froth- when I put the trailer fin it the board felt as fast and as loose as any short board ive ridden in those size waves today. wave catching was a piece of cake. no problem even coming straight off the 10 ft mal.
it was exciting even dare I say
so there it is done and proud of it
Nice board LL
Had a quick surf this morning on my 6'0, strong crosshore winds, big swell, had it to myself. Had a couple of good ones. Just got back from having a few beers down on the beach with wind surfing mates watching some great wind surfing & kiting action. Strong winds & still a good swell running. Great stuff

I do love your ability to stay positive. Sadly up my way anything with South is no fun and this wind is relentless 
Even my wife commented today on the wind and lack of surf..
I had a week of dayshift so no waves and been off all week but it's been hopeless and windy so hoping something will happen soon. I think I've only been out twice over the last fortnight

Anything with a N unless very light here sux. I surfed your local a lot in the early to mid 90's when I visited my olds. It does handle a lot of winds, but like anywhere needs swell. Thats been a big problem lately & for a lot of this year. Should be ok now yeah 
Hope ya have a good one mate
