I didnt think Trigg would be any good yesterday but went and had a look at thirds and it was not bad, was happy with that
Went south of the river with a few mates on Saturday and scored as well, new board was going very well
Looks good doggie, what fins you got in? What do you reckon the knubster does? I feel it when it's in I think it does something good but I'm not sure wat? Apart from surf more like slater!!!
I just got a set of Powerbase fins to try out in the katana quad, they look good cant wait to give em a crack - DXL fronts with DM rears ( I think they look like m7 sorta and M4 if there was such a size)
Haha how stoked does Colin get!! I like it. Whenever you go you have to wait because he is chatting to someone. then your visit takes about 15 mins longer because he is always up for a chat. He's a real honest, helpful bloke and the surfing community in Perth is lucky to have these guys. I'm sure they could earn more doing other things, but we appreciate them.
Weed, weed and more frickin weed...
A couple of banks working at Perth's most crowded break... but man it was crowded. I actually went back down for the shift change at 10:00am and there were still heaps in the water.
With the predicted forecast Saturday will be madness...
Had a bit of wind on it today. I was hoping it would back off. Oh well, you win some you lose some.
Interesting pic anyway.
Anyone had a look at the Trigg/Scarb stretch this morning? Cams show it to be nearly flat on 0.4m at Cott...
Yep. I'm gonna stay up here for the day. All the work I need to do today I can do on my toughbook on the beach.
Spent the morning get hammered in reasonable closeouts. Hit the bottom twice
There was the main peak with loads i mean maybe 30 or so and one guy further down who was beating sections like super man
It was fun to get wet, just didn't enjoy the sand, wind, back wash, there was sum really stupid arrogant drop ins, (not against me) and the surf school turned it for me.
But enjoyable getting smashed for a few hours, heaps more enjayable than running around a park getting yelled at by a trainer
Trigg Zoo was not that special. Crowd was nearly shoulder to shoulder at 9:30am... wind and backwash affecting what could have been a decent bank...
Lots of dropping in, and you had to really compete for the bigger ones. Took the fun out of it so I sat off to the side and waited for the smaller ones...
Even the lunchtime slot had 20 or so blokes sitting on the one (inconsistent) peak. The usual mix of a couple of red-hot surfers, a couple of mals, a couple of learners and the rest of us.
Not sure about the forecast spike in swell (for the metro area), but it has dropped off noticeably.
Conditions improved at mettams. Been up there since 8am and just left. Only surfed for about an hour though. Some okay ones ended up rolling through but my god, what a kook fest. Drop ins galore and more goatboats than you can imagine. Still, 'warm' water and blue skies. Not all bad.
