I went to the wrong beach this morning......had to be in Sydney by 9am so could not go to the spot I wanted as I did not have enough time.....the boys just called to confirm my worst fears Oh well at least I got a few good ones in. 4ft with a few bigger ones but lots of water moving - far from picture perfect where I was but still fun to get out and about - and had to share it with one other bloke. Cracker of a sunrise!

Had a paddle at a beach / point break near Newcastle yesterday on my way home from Hunter valley. Was pumping! Couldn't get a rhythm happening on the board I borrowed, but good to be in warmish water again

This thread is not fair to those of us on the west coast which is all secret.

Surfed small left hander about an hour south of Perth.

I was king of the groms as I am sure that if you took me and one other parent out of the equation average age was under 12.

I think at 13 my son was the oldest and impressed the micro's by pulling into a few barrels

Perfect conditions so a great way to dodge working

nice work lads...pretty much flat here. I got some fun little ones last night before the darkness arrived but this morning it was not worth it. Watched the lady play soccer instead...her first game of the year - she played well in a 2-1 victory.

My missus plays soccer to Ted I love watching her play I just wish she would run in all sweaty and fired up and take my legs out from under me a bit more often I would never red card her

Mac & I surfed Snapper & into LM today, hit the water around 7 & out around 10:30. There were beautiful glassy little waves flowing through all morning with a couple of options for takeoff positions along the break, most were waist to chest high with the occasional bomb set coming through. We were amazed how few surfers were out there, I'd reckon most thought it'd be too small, their loss.

New CW surfed well, very stable & forgiving & handled a couple of late takeoff's with ease, I'm going to try dropping from a 9" to an 8" centre to try & loosen it up a little more but overall very happy. Mac caught a few rippers with some nice long rides & a couple of bottom turns that'd make Kelly Slater jealous.

Gotta love these 10'ers.

Yes what a great surprise today was,fully expected knee to waist, but the heart started as I rounded the bend at Kirra. Amazed at how few were out considering
the perfect conditions,as Vanders said waist to chest high and the odd bigger sets,these 10 foot big volume boards love this stuff.I got so many waves I was totally rooted during the last hour of the session.Thanks for the kind words Vanders some of those waves were awesome.
You too had a great day on the new CW mate bloody dropping in on the big fellow and you just motored way in front of him and left him in your wake.That wave was a ripper.I agree stick an 8 inch in that girl and rip on.

As what Tux said, we have had 'well above average' sessions lately!

Centre Fins;
Pure singles;
8"1/2 to 10"1/2... Bigger end for bigger boards and/or riders.
With side biters;
6"1/2 to 9", bigger end for bigger guys/boards. Smaller sides means you can add 1 inch to the centre, vice versa.

Just a rough guide...

Hey Boofy...I was just using one of those POD handplanes, the plastic ones....just waiting for some wood to arrive to shape up a few wooden ones for indo....I only just started body surfing again after not really bothering much but the more I do the more I am enjoying it and I'm finding all these little waves that are no good for anything else that are perfect...

Yep I have got a Pod handplane to mate its the ideal thing to leave floating around in the ute for some fun when its big and closing out I will get a nice wooden one its about 10th on the list of new toys I must have in the next 6 months
