swell dropping fast but still lots of fun ones coming through - just long lulls. Took the SP out for a run - been a long time since I have ridden her and she performed admirably. Such a wonderful board. Even though its well past its use by date and falling apart and heavy as all hell its still the most fun board I have ever surfed.
Had to do some work down at Pups local. Mid day glass off. Head high at the peak.
Even Grumpy Santa Claus almost smiled once...Almost.
4 people out.
Prez Zib is one of those up on the nose so easily type frothers .... a pleasure to watch - he's good
I surfed pathetic wind swell that was worse than rubbish. Water was warm and nice and I could see about 15 m or so with just my eyes, perfect. Highlight was a fella paddling through us on a kayak catching Spanish mackerel... Bravo buddy
Surfed Shelly beach 1 ft and a bit...so much for todays epic swell..but big highlight..my young fella had a ball in the smaller surf
and there is always tomorrow
Jeepers that is a surprise Climber - it is very big down here. I am just back from surfing a north facing reef on a south swell that had to come all the way around the headland and into the bay. Sets were a solid 4 foot plus and sucking up very nicely The open coast is absolutely huge. Massive. So is the wind so the sheltered spots are all that is handling it. Even one of the beaches that faces north and is protected from the SW wind had some huge sets coming in - thats one of the reasons I was on the reefs
Christ I hope there's something here tomoz .... these early morning drives for nothing lately are wearing thin
There will be mate...seems to be a bit better mid morning lately. Wind was a bit into it at 1100 yesterday when we went for a walk down to the beach, but there was a wave & only a few guys out. Sounds like there's a bit of a wave today, but I'm just about to head off to work.
Pumping over here today lads Open coast is huge and messy but around the corner its heaven. Some big clean up sets coming through to keep everyone honest - or to just make me crap my boardies
In comparison to Teds epic wave. This is Flynns beach in Port Macquarie today. Difference 250km and several feet of wave
Up & into it before sun up - very few and a long wait for them , the odd chest high stuff .... then the weekend blowins arrived en masse
Probably a 4/10 at best
Hey Ted - that looks absolutely smoking brother - geez hows that one at the back
Score !!!! was excellent early on - some wicked sets came rolling thru , a dozen peeps or so out in total .... then the Devil north just blew it away , white cap city now
Hopefully be something left over for me tomorrow PUP before I havta go & do some workplace training. This weeks shifts look like they're all on the best surf days lol...but I didn't expect there to be anything worthwhile this morning with the Northerly forecast, so might get lucky eh
Mate the way that dropped off so farking quickly this morning from heads to diddely squat - it's not a cert ... but hey ya gotta have a gander early is the go go
