ahhhhhhh......... it's been a good week
2 sunrises, 1 apres' sunset paddle, LOTs of glass to paddle some different spots, 1 good surf and 1 small junk.
and some birds.
STC do you surf all through your winter?
Every winter since 1965.
Many of our best waves are from big winter storms.
Frequently -10c and windy.
We grew up with this, so it's not a big deal to us..... in fact it is still crowded on really good swells.
Thank God for wetsuits!

I got shrinkage just from reading that.
Manly at 4pm yesterday - the winds turned offshore and it was going off big time. Took the Starby Airborn out and it was on for young and old. Was packed with probe surfers with just one lonely SUPer out there.......:-)
Just got my first board an 11ft8" inflatable. Have been loving it. Red Beach, Bribie Island was perfect for flat water paddling on Saturday morning. Stayed from about 6am-10.30am. Paddled with 2 dugong for about 10 minutes which was amazing!
The photo is of my brother trying to take his dog out but she wasn't so keen.
got some finless action due to dodgy NT curbing, having a laugh before work, first desert rains, more puddles to come
Got a bit of distance training today fromMt Martha to Mornington, just a lazy 11km.
Roughly my start point, just had a chat to an other paddler on a terrific board!
A few renovators delights,you need a good spirit level.
About half way, the point behind me was my start point.
Glass!
A few rocky outcrops and passed another SUP.
So clear today.
My turn around point at the beginning of Mornington.
Thar she blows, the point is my line home.
Had a few charter fishing boats along the way.
Turn left and I'm back. 10.8km. I need a drink!
Aggy main, in the guts, steep beachies on the incoming.
The minion copped a flogging as I threw all thoughts of self preservation out the window, and gave nil f***s about the 2 back packers attempting to take off in front of me. On. Every. F***ing. Wave.
Best little session I've had in a while.
Even the skid lidder who shoved over gave me thumbs up.
Stoked.
Merimbula.
Love it.
Inlet morning.
Landpaddle lunchtime.
Windsup early afternoon.
Turbopaddle after...
Inlet glide after the wind died, on the disappearing water.
Not much surf here lately
Went for surf at centres this morning. Think towball looked but did the limp dick thing and went home. But quite fun. Then went and paddled out into the bay on the Bic Wing chasing birds diving in to the water. Got to the "one mile" buoy. The other guys out there complete softies.......in boats :)
