Just back from fairly crowded high tide dribble but still got a few. Much prefer to surf in the morning or midday . Plenty of beards and scrawny log riders without leggies along with carpark hangers and some really loud crappy music. I was glad to get out of there. Maybe I'm getting old and cranky and I'm sure I would have been happier paddling the river than attending the carpark zoo this arvo. I'll be out there tomorrow on the lower tide when all the blow ins are at work or school.
sort of in but the tide may have had a bit to do with it - so it was let rip inside , scored heaps had 2 goes at it

Paddled out at LM spent most of my time a little inside met up with GT mct fame the 207 was the correct board it loves it like this clean shoulder high long walls it was like a skate park.
Well the Prez Asea & I hit the point early and proceeded to run amok it was a cracking surf this morning & there was some size to it ...... yar the great man was passed fit with only minutes to spare ...... old cock was on fire , a sweet cut & then caress of the lip followed by some very smart footwork on his first wave drew an extra 0.5 to his scoresheet on his Goldie Titans CW team board
My first one in the dark was a hairy big bastard of a thing but luckily enough I smashed the pisser out of it & then some the tricky farker .... farken sneak up on me in the dark you Walled up big blue farker .... geez
So that leaves the title race wide open with Macaha sneaking out to a slender lead & the Asea is back in town , and with that bonus 0.5 , is right back in the mix ..... ( if the classy old cock gets too near , we have a devious foolproof plan ..... we will purchase 3 Gourmet Pies and lay them in strategic places in the carpark , cock will not be able to resist that temptation and will surf like a bitch

All roads head to Byron for the trim comp on the weekend should be good for more point scoring.
Good to hear Asea got off his lazy arse and you guys scored this morning still big tides.
Pretty decent east groundswell today. It was hitting pretty straight with lots of closeouts on the falling tide. Managed to pick a few off but the wind made it pretty hard. Can't complain because it was the biggest I'd been out in for some time. Rode my short board (10'6 ) and the water had a bit of a chill to it as well.
Tell you what she's cranking this morning - bigger than yesterday , had another 2 servings it was that farken grouse sweet jesus I'm rooted now
geez I'd cracked a lip on one of these scrumptious delicious conkers looked down & fark me it was near double head , hollowing out then tubing off on the shoulder hahahaha farken filthy faaaaaaaaaarken filthy

*** Think I saw Lacey on the shortie , if it was Chipster then he gets a point for a cuttie that was particularly nice Hi there Chip chip
Surfed inside LM saw surf animals but couldn't catch u with him he was a long way down the point the wide body 901 worked a treat.
Newcastle main beach again from 6:00am. With all the heros from Surfest coming around for free surf in gets pretty hectic once the sun comes up. Need headlights on my board.
Been riding a 9'2" as a single fin all week, and today after a couple I stuck the side bites back in. WOW, I will never ride single agian. First wave with all the fins back in took off right, big bottom turn and pulled up under the lip. Felt great.
Hate the feel of a single fin. Way to slow. Was able to get through to the reform on the shore with the fins in.
Dead flat but offshore at the hydro therapy pool with the 80yr olds again morning. Conditions hardly changed all week.
Point looked good & was getting better as tide dropped. Beaches looked fun on higher tide earlier.
Dbah looked fun on news last night except the entire surfing world / industry hangers on are in town.
