Couldn't complain about our fav yesterday. Both reef breaks working, even an A frame with a few barrels for the boogers on the beachie 150mtrs away.
Beautiful sunshine, and a couple of dolphins for the right mood. A few crew, but they managed to spread out a bit because everything was working.. Even the non locals were friendly yesterday..
What a difference a day makes... today was very average. Went back in after 2 waves to get the mal and still only got a handful. Wind and backwash were killing what could have been a good bank... 3/10.
Four hours of pumping A frames. Thick and punchy, sooooo many drubbings.

Was really fun wasn't it! Early was a bit more consistent and solid but even as I left a few good ones were coming through. Good vibe in the water always help make a session special as well.
Yesterday was exceptionally small, waist high waves but pretty clean metro ( sort off) Thursday is looking like the day this week
Thanks for the heads up Razz. I managed to snag a few before old mate SUP harvested everything along 200m of beach.
grumblegrumble...
Got a few sneaky ones all on my lonesome at around noon at a beach I've never considered before. Joy!
So who's in for a windy slammin' tomorrow?

Umm that sounds intriguing
Glad someone is getting out, i've surfed a few times but can only surf on my back hand so have decided to let the foot heel
Snapped a new board in half while surfing a messy Metro Beachie on Sat morning :(
Whats the go with broken boards anyway, is there anyone local that will fix it and donate to disadvantaged kids or similar? I'd rather see some grom get a free board to bash about on than simply chuck it in the bin.

Bugger! But good question. I know I would've been stoked as a grom to have had a decent (even if once halved) board to thrash. I wish my groms would show some stoke...
anyone go to rotto today?
my son and his mates wanted to go in a 4.3m centre console
luckily the dads had more sense, but I would like a report
indicators or stark might have been good
Six hours in the water at A Frames today. The odd ten minute lull but pretty much pumping the whole time. Ken rooted now.
<div>I can't compete with that, but glad I waited for the arvo sesh: The wind and crowd backed off and I managed to score 'that wave' that makes you smile for a long while afterwards...
Checked out a couple of beach breaks at first light and it was pretty ugly. Spent 30 minutes watching a few different spots and didn't see much at all come through.
Was a 15-20 knot SW'er until 5am when it turned to a very light offshore.
Should be cleaner now though.
Was worth having a crack this morning. Few good drainers coming through, although some still pretty straight where I was.
Oh I had no board, the kids with me, and they wanted ice cream.. Yeah great you want ice cream I want to go for a surf. What do you mean I'm a meanie...... No no you can't have ice cream.. Why not? ... It's international no ice cream day that's why sweetheart.
