Today is razzonaters birthday
It is compulsory to surf on the birthday no matter the forecast.
For ten years now ( this is the tenth in a row) the 8th of October has had waves wherever I find myself.

Todays forecast was looking really grim. Really really grim, the cameras this morning indicated terrible waves, I sighed got in my car and than proceeded to rock up too chest height peelers with three out, tubes turns and speed runs for two hours.
The guys in the water thanked me for having my birthday, I thanked them for being there.
Normally there is a million here when it looks anything like this, glassy walls and all


After 1 hour and 45 minutes there was a ten minute lull last wave was called and as I got changed and watched off another one did not come through whilst I was there.

that was it.

I put my order in leading up to my birthday, I like to drop hints to Huey during surfs like, gee Huey that last wave shut down and with my birthday coming up ...... we'll surely a little pulse wouldn't go astray.

Huey: ( I use the voice of king trident on the little mermaid, yes I watch it and yes I have kids) well Sebastian my little soldier crab if it's a pulse you want than it will be there.

put your order in now buster, he used to give out brochures and written forms but it just attracted a lot of spam. Eat the turtle flyers, hug the shark campaign, some dude in India looking for a wife etc etc

it also looks like your talking to yourself in the lineup , normally creates a bit off space

I had a storm surf in Perth Sunday. It was surprisingly good. Monday morning I felt like I'd been hit by a bus...

This morning was remarkably punchy and hollow on the usual metro stretch.
half a dozen barrels nice little bank good fun.

i didn't go down till about 8 and I reckon the wind was on it by 930 or so.
I was stoked but annoyed at my two coffee , fluff around , take my time routine, I fell about 30 minutes short of my desired barrel appetite

Grand final day morning was awesome at a normally crowded reef, border line swell prediction for that spot may have helped

well I'm guessing you weren't looking at me this morning. The only tearing I was doing was my hair as the set waves were closing out either side of me....
