NC will you be involved?

nah I'm not an ASL guy any more

I dunno how that level of flex works with the fin plugs -- plugs don't flex.

cranky your beyond Muzza swell, the winds are epic but it all looks a bit too far east for the wind angles heavy winds over a lot of ocean but mostly around 230 degrees. Radial spread should see most of the size get to Bali and eastern Java but a lot of it looks like it will hit NW Australia and all...

Unpredicted?
It was on every synoptic chart i sW.

Totally, that thing was accurately forecast four days out

It amazed me that so many people were shocked by the appearance of a swell from it.

See the tragedy is godsave that until that month at Crabmeat’s Hospice, all this will remain as unguessable for you as a Magic Seaweed surf forecast. A strange mystery on the other side of the planet...populated by extraordinary short bald superhumans with vast quivers of surfboards and terrible gla...

Four unforgettable days at the Newport Surf Racing Academy in Sydney, where you will be comprehensively out-swum, out-surfed, and finally half drowned on a bombie reef on a 10’ day by a bunch of 15-year-olds on paddleboards! Gosh that Surf Racing Academy certainly sounds the absolute business! Tell...

There’s a lot happening in this country godsave. A LOT. And it’s not just about surfing either.

And finished off by a weekend in the Lakemba Collective, where you’ll pump weights, eat unrecognisable food, and get up at 3am to drive four hours for a 2-3’ rip bowl which is actually 6’!!

Two relaxing days in Bondi Adjacent living the Pleasant Life with lifestyle influencer Harry Beanpole!

Featuring: The Lennox Head Experience, where you spend a morning trying to get out off the rocks, the afternoon trying to get back in, and a night with Steve Shearer On The Stones!

Come and stay for a month at Crabmeat’s Hospice For Doubting Welshmen!

Oh, it's not like it's one of my shibboleths or anything Nick. For years I was happy to accept the loudly shouted australian narrative of the best surf and the best surfers in the world. It's only in the last few years that the doubts have started to creep in Wsell there’s only one way to find out

You just go on believing that godsave

It HAS been a great week hasn't it! champions all.

I think it is just fine for cranky and beanpole to use kj, like I don't really expect them to understand anything about what I get up to in the surf zone either. Cranked is into Astron Zots with quad set ups, I wouldn't ride that unless it was the only board in the world, and Beany really seems to r...

Too big for beanpole.

yeah like that Padang contest looks pretty much regulation kilojoules.

GFS is pretty good for the North Pacific ACCESS is all over the joint this year, it’s had some crackers I dunno, I guess I do not expect pinpoint accuracy from forecasts, the only thing you can be pretty sure of is real time wind speeds and directions on the ocean surface and even that fluctuates a ...
