I feel your pain ET n LL. Two months away from home and just two reasonable surfs from 5 attempts. Good to be back - clocked 8 amazing sessions last 3 days. And we have a nice swell arriving Wednesday hope you get a good run when you return to the water

More supper fun waves this morning. Just a quick hour of power for me though as too much work to get through. Good swell arriving Tom so need to clear the decks to maximise surf time

Awesome Ted ... I shared your "Hour of Power" philosophy this morning. Work
Had a brilliant surf on a beach in town 2-3ft ...super fun...normally very crowded but only 5-6 out.
All the crowd (bout 20-25 riders) were 100 - 200mtr away on another bank
I do believe no one expected the swell..was a surprise to me and gladly accepted
but.....off to the physio again tomorrow (after the next surf though )

Really fun waves up my way. Even now with the wind it's still fun.

My fitness is so far off what it was. I struggled out there.

Still great fun

Epic day...crap wind blew in early & kept the 666'ers away. But then the wind dropped right off by 0930 & the tide brought in some good size sets. Same as yesterday...

Fully rooted after almost 5 hours in the water. Just counldn't get out after the massive West Oz lull we had...stoked

Good job. I thought when Matt made that initial comment that it was a bit soft ! He should have gone hard on him Its great now that social media can attempt to make him a bit more honest. Might make the rest of them think about their own actions as well. Bring it on I say. Slay them I have seen people chased out of town with machetes for much less in Indo. The law of the jungle has a good way of stopping that sort of behaviour. Shame its no longer done in Bali itself !

To be honest with you mate, I did pop in for 10 mins to drink a bottle of water & change fin set up. So probably only 4.5 hours really...couldn't do it on a SB

Its been good here too for the last four days or so. I even managed to find a barrelling reef on a long weekend with three people out. My body is sore. More coming too.

Finally El Niño is passed.

I get a new car in Friday too.

Thought it was going to be small and fat so
Took my 10ftr for ankle high fatness but when I got there it was over ankle high so I went home to get another 10ftr from the quiver..

My ankle to knee high 10ftr..

Heading back down to the beach, found a park got out and the tide had dropped so it was bit suckier then I remembered so went home and got my Knee to ankle high sucky wave 10ftr.

But by the time I got back it had gone onshore so went home again and got my ankle to knee high onshore 10ftr..


Had a great surf after that..

But thinking by about ordering g a 9'10 any thoughts???
